Attachment Fashion Project Press Release PACKER00002251 Bal Harbour Shops Contact: Jennifer Valdes Harrison & Shriftman 305-534~0008 [email protected] FASHION PROJECT BAL HARBOUR SHOPS ANNOUNCES "DRESSING DOWN THE MOVIES," A FASHION FILM FESTIVAL FROM AUGUST 15 TO SEPTEMBER 30 BAL HARBOUR, FLORIDA, July 15, 2015-Fashion Project, an experimental space in Bal Harbour Shops dedicated to fashion and the broader culture surrounding its design, production, dissemination, and consumption, announces its summer film festival, Dressing Down the Movies: Nat Chediak on Fashion. The festival runs from August 15 through September 30, with complimentary films at 2:30pm and 7pm Monday through Saturday and 3pm Sunday. The twenty-four classic films span nearly seven decades, from 1929 through 1994, and explore the rich intersection of fashion and film. Beginning with Pandorafs Box from 1929, featuring Louise Brooks with her iconic bob, dressed in a Jean Patou tank dress, to Robert Altmann's entertaining and vitriolic Ready to Wear from 1994, the films present pivotal fashion moments, trends, designers, and some of our favorite fashion emissaries. There's Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face from 1957, with her Givenchy­ designed Paris wardrobe; the narrow lapels and cuffless trousers donned by the Rat Pack in Ocean's 11 in 1960, and of course Jane Fonda in futuristic armor by Paco Rabanne in Barbarella, the 1968 cult classic. The festival is curated by Nat Chediak and offered in partnership with Coral Gables Art Cinema. Film screenings take place in Fashion Project's one-thousand-square-foot space on the third floor of Bal Harbour Shops. For the film festival, the space is being converted from an exhibition space into a chic, living room/screening room designed specifically for the festival by noted architect and designer Tui Pranich of Tui lifestyle. A selection of books on film and fashion is featured at neighboring Books & Books Bal Harbour Shops. "Film and fashion have enjoyed a symbiotic relationship since before the advent of sound. The two dozen films in our selection explore the many ways both disciplines have influenced one another over time. The historical retrospective spans almost seven decades of fashion in film and will be screened chronologically, ending twenty years ago for the sake of perspective. The approach is not all-inclusive and has been informed by the pleasure principle: if it feels good, see it, wear it," says Chediak. Seating at the films is limited and will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Contact Fashion Project with questions or for further information: [email protected] or 786.245.2200. Schedule and information is below, followed by descriptions of films.

PACKER00002256 PROGRAM NOTES Pandora's Box 8/15 & 8/16 What else could Louise Brooks possibly play other than a seductive, thoughtless young woman whose raw sensuality and uninhibited nature bring ruin to herself and those who love her? "When you meet someone like this in life, you're attracted," wrote an admiring Roger Ebert, "but you know in your gut she'll be nothing but trouble." Pandora's Box's impact on fashion is timeless.

  • Smoothing the Wrinkles Hollywood, “Successful Aging” and the New Visibility of Older Female Stars Josephine Dolan
    Template: Royal A, Font: , Date: 07/09/2013; 3B2 version: 9.1.406/W Unicode (May 24 2007) (APS_OT) Dir: //integrafs1/kcg/2-Pagination/TandF/GEN_RAPS/ApplicationFiles/9780415527699.3d 31 Smoothing the wrinkles Hollywood, “successful aging” and the new visibility of older female stars Josephine Dolan For decades, feminist scholarship has consistently critiqued the patriarchal underpinnings of Hollywood’s relationship with women, in terms of both its industrial practices and its representational systems. During its pioneering era, Hollywood was dominated by women who occupied every aspect of the filmmaking process, both off and on screen; but the consolidation of the studio system in the 1920s and 1930s served to reduce the scope of opportunities for women working in off-screen roles. Off screen, a pattern of gendered employment was effectively established, one that continues to confine women to so-called “feminine” crafts such as scriptwriting and costume. Celebrated exceptions like Ida Lupino, Dorothy Arzner, Norah Ephron, Nancy Meyers, and Katherine Bigelow have found various ways to succeed as producers and directors in Hollywood’s continuing male-dominated culture. More typically, as recently as 2011, “women comprised only 18% of directors, executive producers, cinematographers and editors working on the top 250 domestic grossing films” (Lauzen 2012: 1). At the same time, on-screen representations came to be increasingly predicated on a gendered star system that privileges hetero-masculine desires, and are dominated by historically specific discourses of idealized and fetishized feminine beauty that, in turn, severely limit the number and types of roles available to women. As far back as 1973 Molly Haskell observed that the elision of beauty and youth that underpins Hollywood casting impacted upon the professional longevity of female stars, who, at the first visible signs of aging, were deemed “too old or over-ripe for a part,” except as a marginalized mother or older sister.

  • 'Perfect Fit': Industrial Strategies, Textual Negotiations and Celebrity
    ‘Perfect Fit’: Industrial Strategies, Textual Negotiations and Celebrity Culture in Fashion Television Helen Warner Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) University of East Anglia School of Film and Television Studies Submitted July 2010 ©This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author's prior, written consent. Helen Warner P a g e | 2 ABSTRACT According to the head of the American Costume Designers‟ Guild, Deborah Nadoolman Landis, fashion is emphatically „not costume‟. However, if this is the case, how do we approach costume in a television show like Sex and the City (1998-2004), which we know (via press articles and various other extra-textual materials) to be comprised of designer clothes? Once onscreen, are the clothes in Sex and the City to be interpreted as „costume‟, rather than „fashion‟? To be sure, it is important to tease out precise definitions of key terms, but to position fashion as the antithesis of costume is reductive. Landis‟ claim is based on the assumption that the purpose of costume is to tell a story. She thereby neglects to acknowledge that the audience may read certain costumes as fashion - which exists in a framework of discourses that can be located beyond the text. This is particularly relevant with regard to contemporary US television which, according to press reports, has witnessed an emergence of „fashion programming‟ - fictional programming with a narrative focus on fashion.

  • Issue #72 Summer / Fall 2008 Lars Bloch Interview (Part 2) a Man, a Colt the MGM Rolling Road Show Latest DVD Reviews
    Issue #72 Summer / Fall 2008 Lars Bloch Interview (part 2) A Man, a Colt The MGM Rolling Road Show Latest DVD Reviews WAI! #72 THE SWINGIN’ DOORS April and May were months that took a number of well known actors of the Spaghetti western genre: Jacques Berthier, Robert Hundar, John Phillip Law and Tano Cimarosa were all well known names in the genre. Of course we should expect as much since these people are now well into their 70s and even 80s. Still in our minds they are young vibrant actors who we see over and over again on video and DVD. It’s hard to realize that it’s been 40+ years since Sergio Leone kicked off the Spaghetti western craze and launched a world wide revolution in film that we still see influencing films today. Hard to believe Clint Eastwood turned 78 on May 30th. Seems like only yesterday he was the ‘Man with No Name’ and starring in the first of the Leone films that launched the genre. Remember when Clint was criticized so badly as an actor and for the films he appeared in during the 60s and 70s. Now he’s revered in Hollywood because he’s outlived his critics. I guess we recognized a real star long before the critics did. A great idea came to Tim League’s mind in the launching of the “Rolling Road Show”, where films are actually shown where they were filmed. I wasn’t able to travel to Spain to see the Dollars trilogy but we have a nice review of the films and the experience by someone who was there.
