Thursday Movie Picks: Fashion World




Zoolander
 I'm guessing this will be popular today only because there just aren't that many fashion comedies around. Better than I thought it would be when I first saw it. So quotable and easy to make fun of. Mugatu is definitely a stand out villain and who forget the moment 'magnum' appeared or the late great David Bowie's cameo.

The September Issue
 I had no idea who Anna Wintour was and had no idea that Faye Summers the fictional editor of Mode from Ugly Betty was a take off a real person. The fashion documentary was so intriguing, chronically the lead up to the release of the biggest issue of the year. It also shows that there are some talented artists being hidden amongst the fakery that is the fashion industry.

Coco Before Channel
Throwing in a biopic as I couldn't think of any other fashion films I'd seen. Audrey Tatou is the icon herself before she became one of the biggest names in fashion. From her humble beginnings to her weird relationship with a rich to her first meeting with Boy. Seeing her start to make her signature style was good but it did waver on the dull side in parts.
