Fashion on Film 2015
Watch Vogue shoots with Lena Dunham, trace the history of bespoke Italian menswear, celebrate the glory of '90s fashion.
Overview
ACMI is stepping into the world of haute couture, as part of this year's Virgin Australia Melbourne Fashion Festival. Get the lowdown on high fashion, take a time machine back to the nineties, or go behind the scenes of a Vogue magazine photo shoot with the inimitable Lena Dunham. With five documentaries bolstered by a number of shorts, one thing about the Fashion on Film program is certain: it's probably going to make you feel seriously underdressed.
The FOF season begins on February 21 with And Then There Is Naples, Gianluca Migliarotti's journey into the history of bespoke Italian menswear. Anchoring art in life, the film is paired with a two hour walking tour past some of Melbourne's own top quality tailors. Other films in the program include The Balmain Style, about the legendary French fashion house, as well as Pop Models, about the evolution of the supermodel.
