Meanwhile, Christian, who recently announced his departure from Lucien Lelong’s (John Malkovich) design firm, is dealing with his own issues.

He preferred a smaller location for his couture house, but Marcel Boussac (Patrick Albenque) offered a larger one.

Ultimately, though, things work out in his favour since Boussac chooses to use Christian’s location for their couture.

The forthcoming episode will depict Christian’s ascent to fame as an iconic fashion designer.

We can expect to see him work tirelessly to cement his place in the industry and the debut of his highly regarded fashion line, ‘The New Look.’
