The best fashion films

The world of fashion is a fascinating, complex and colourful world. It’s a magical world, once you’ve stepped into it you feel enticed, spellbound and you can hardly turn away. On the other hand, it’s also a demanding, noisy and impetuous world. But, at the end of the day, all this makes up the real magic of the fashion show.

To get to know this tumultuous world better, I suggest six more fashion films that are worth seeing, whether you’re interested in this world or just want to model your style a little. Some of them I’ve reviewed now, some I’ve discovered recently, but all of them surprised me with a lot of charm.
