Audrey Tautou has always worn Chanel.

The French actress - who plays legendary designer Coco Chanel in new movie 'Coco Before Chanel' - is a fan of her clothes and believes they are wardrobe classics.

She said: "Did I own any Chanel clothes before? I'm a French actress. Of course, I did! I had a few jackets, dresses, shoes and a favourite leather jacket that I wear all the time!"

Audrey added she was disappointed she didn't get to keep the clothes she wore for the film.

She explained to Britain's Grazia magazine: "I'd have loved to keep some of the clothes from the movie too - especially the little green riding jacket and hat that she wears in one scene. But all the clothes are going to the Chanel museum, which is where they belong, of course."

Audrey added she put pressure on herself while shooting the movie as she became convinced the legendary designer was watching her.

She said: "I wondered if she was looking down on me. I was thinking, 'Be confident. Be strong. Be the boss. Just like Coco herself and whatever you do don't screw up.' "
