Title The Story of Fashion. Volume 1; Remembrance of Things Past
Author Description Directed by Eila Hershon and Roberto Guerra
Uri
Web Author Description
webLongDescription Karl Lagerfeld once said, 'You cannot define fashion. As soon as you do it changes and you are out of fashion.' Lagerfeld himself provides the main commentary in this, the first of three films on the story of fashion, which starts with the rise of fashion in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries from the work of Charles Worth, the English inventor of Parisian haute couture in the mid-nineteenth century, to the evolution of twentieth-century style. The different interpretations of fashion commonplaces such as hairstyles and the shape of the female form itself over the decades are looked at in relation to the changing social backdrop and the evolution of the modern emancipated woman, and the film also deals engagingly with other aspects of fashion such as millinery, embroidery and fashion illustration. Using archive footage, and interviews with key figures in the fashion world of today, the film provides not only a survey of the evolution of fashion in modern times but also amusing food for thought about the relationship between self-expression through clothing and social and cultural change.
