Youre on top of the latest slew of fashion films but if youre in need of
a flick fix, rewind a few years at Bird
Dog Video. The independent shop has a fabulous collection of fashion
films that will take you back to the days of (real) supermodels and old
Hollywood glamour.
Before Coco
Avant Chanel, there was Chanel Chanel, a documentary
about the legendary designer with archival film footage and interviews
with friends and colleagues. If not for the satirical portrayal of
fashion, see Robert Altmans Prêt-à-Porter
for its star-studded cast including Sophia Loren, Lauren Becall and
Marcello Mastroianni. Revisit Cindy, Naomi and Linda in all their glory
and fall in love with Isaac Mizrahi in Unzipped.
Youll also find lesser-known movies such as Tokyo Streets, an
exploration of urban fashion trends in Japan and Frames from the Edge,
the Helmut Newton documentary.
