When it comes to fashionable movies, there’s a riches to pick
from..!! FASHION is inextricably linked
to the movies, just as it is to music, art and even architecture. Movies often
influence the trends on the catwalk, whilst there are those films (SATC
anyone??) whose appeal comes in No small part from the amazing clothes worn on
set..!! So, if you’re looking for a little cinematic inspiration, here are the
FIVE Magnificent Fashionable Movies to inspire your wardrobe..!!
The brilliant Meryl Streep, with that glacial stare, gave us quite
the insight into the fashion industry with her portrayal of Miranda Priestley,
fashion editor extraordinaire - and rumored to be based on the immutable Anna
Wintour. Shiver. Whilst the people may have been terrible, the clothes
certainly weren't. I like to imagine that's how I'll dress when Vogue realizes
what it's missing and hires me.
2.SATC
As mentioned before, SATC deserves an obvious place on this
list.The fashion buzz surrounding this film was huge----Bigger than any other
movie I can remember during my life time..!! Seriously!!
3.THE GREAT GATSBY
The Great Gatsby is yet to be released….But it’s
already created a catwalk trend, nearly three seasons ago.. That’s quite the
IMPACT..!! Judging from the photos from the set, we can look forward to one of
the most opulent period dramas in years. Dresses designer by Prada, jewellery
by Tiffany….Need I say more???
4.BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S
No list would be complete without Breakfast at
Tiffany’s and Audrey Hepburn’s adorable, damaged Holly Golightly standing
outside Tiffany’s in her Givenchy black dress, pearls and those huge
sunglasses. Her outfit here is quite possibly the most ICONIC in Fashion
history….and in regards to inspiring our wardrobe, there are few women who don’t
own an LBD..!!!
5.MARIE ANTOINETTE
I love History..!! So I had to put a little nit more
period style in here. For me, Sofia Coppola’s lingering shots of Antoinette’s
endless dresses, jewels, shoes, all worn by Kirsten Dunst who encapsulates that
kind of coquettish innocence and naivety so well epitomizes the mood of the
time… richness and poverty, beauty and waste, and so much hopelessness..!!
