Passion for Fashion



WHAT A DEAL
"Unzipped" is one of my favorite documentaries. I find Isaac Mizrahi to be such a great person to watch. He is so creative, so verbose and so highly entertaining. It's also interesting to see so many of the supermodels of the day. What icons they were at the time: Shalom Harlow, Cristy Turlington, Kate Moss, Cindy Crawford (footage of then-husband Richard Gere too) and the ageless Naomi Campbell. And, who knew Linda Evangelista was such a whiny bitch?! At any rate, I had this on vhs, could not transfer it to dvd and when I looked online to buy the dvd - yowza! The dvd of "Unzipped" is ridiculously expensive! I mean, I checked on Ebay, on Amazon, on every other outlet I could think of. The dvd was priced outrageously. In addition, I also had "Ready To Wear" on vhs and it would not transfer either. Although not my favorite Robert Altman film, it still had its moments and Stephen Rea's performance is off the chain! So, imagine my surprise and delight at finding this...

A must have for fashion lovers!
Unzipped was the best one out of all three because Issac Mizrahi has a lot of personality. The September Issue opened up my eyes and I realized that not everyone in the industry is gorgeous like in the magazines :). I still have to see Ready to Wear which I believe is more like a movie than a documentary unlike the other two.

THUMBS UP
This is a must have if your especially if you work in the fashion industry. It's Fun and at the same time quite informative.
