She wants to democratise women's fashion; he wants to redefine musical taste. Coco attends the scandalous first performance of The Rite in a chic white dress. The music and ballet are criticized as too modern, too foreign. Coco is moved but Igor is inconsolable.
Paris 1920, Coco is newly wealthy and successful but grief-stricken after Boy's death in a car crash. Igor, following the Russian Revolution is now a penniless refugee living in exile in Paris. Coco is introduced to Igor by Diaghilev, impresario of the Ballets Russes.
The attraction between them is instant and electric. Coco invites Igor along with his wife — now sick with consumption — together with his four children and a menagerie of birds to stay at her new villa, Bel Respiro, in Garches.
