WATCH THIS : Fashion documentaries

I came across this documentary in my usual documentary trawl on youtube recently!

Now, it is from 2000 and filmed in 1999 so it is 15 years out of date! But I was interested to see the changes. If your into fashion then you'll spot the differences immediately and if your not, then here is a list that I spotted!

1 -  Tom Ford at Gucci
2 - Karl Lagerfeld is, erm, well see for yourself
3 - It's pre size 0 and the Vogue BMI agreement so there are some comments on weight which I am not sure would fly in a docu today. However, if you watch the September issue which is 2001 then there are still some 'honest truths' about weight in there. Not to mention the Sienna Miller tooth incident....
4 -  John Galliano is at his height there pre fall.


I found it interesting but again, it's 15 years old!

I then found this :

It's a BBC documentary on super brands. A look into the super brands of the fashion industry. It's good but I have one complaint - the narrator guy (no better term comes to mind sorry!) is beyond annoying. I've seen a few documentaries with him in it and I still cannot bring myself to listen to him without thinking....Godddddddddd......Some of the points they make are interesting though so its worth a watch.

If your interested in any of the above points and fancy some further reading then look into 'No Logo' by Naomi Klein which is awesome and makes many of the same points much before documentaries like this. It's really interesting as a read.
