Things I Love: Fashion Documentaries
By lizzie_jeanne. Filed in Random Thoughts, Things I Love |
With all the rain we’ve had recently, I’ve been thinking about rainy days. You know, just sitting at home, enjoying being warm and dry, watching some movies?
I love movies… when I have the time to watch them. And if you take a look at my netflix account, you’ll see that most of my favorite movies are documentaries.
I love all kinds of documentaries (from Man on Wire, to WordPlay, to Who Killed The Electric Car?), but my absolute favorites are Fashion based documentaries.
So, with the recent release of The September Issue, I thought I would share some of the greatest docs about fashion, style, and some of the most influential people in this industry.
Hope you enjoy!
