My Favorite Fashion Documentaries!

The latest fashion documentary, Mademoiselle C, follows the chaotic and glamourous life of former Vogue Paris EIC Carine Rotfeld.  I haven't seen it yet but this trailer gives me fashion goosebumps!!

The Last Emperor documents the extravagant life of Valentino and allows viewers to gain insight into the drama and challenges of creating couture collections.  His Parisian villas, famous friends, and even his significant other come together in this fascinating film about the life of an Italian designer.

I can never seem to get enough of The September Issue which takes place at infamous Vogue offices.  It focuses on Anna Wintour's relationship with the magazine's Creative Director, Grace Coddington and features Andre Leon Talley, Sienna Miller, and Oscar De La Renta.  Fashion fanatics like myself get a pass to Paris Fashion Week and a peak into photo shoots, exclusive meetings, and fabulous parties. You will be Anna-obsessed after seeing it!

Unzipped is a documentary about Izaac Mizrahi and his everyday design challenges.  We see him talk passionately about what inspires him and we also realize how incredibly funny and smart he is.  It's also extremely entertaining to see first hand how much of a diva Linda Evangelista was back in the day.  This one gets five stars for entertainment value!
