  1. I am not interested in luxuries like Chanel or CD since I cannot afford them and these days I usually just buy sport clothes...Juliette Binoche and John Malkovich are excellent actors.

    1. I would agree on Binoche, on Malkovich not so much, I find him terribly annoying to watch. It is always interesting seeing the glamour on the screen but also what hides behind building a whole empire. Dior helped the world to return to normalcy after the world by creating beauty again in the ravaged world. It gave people some kind of spark and optimism to continue with life no matter how superficial that sounds.

  2. I'm pleased to know that they will also cover the fashion world in Occupied Paris, something that The Collection (which was a disguised Dior biopic) only hinted at. Apparently Apple tv is going for period drama. They had one debuting each month, Lessons in Chemistry in October, The Buccaneers in November, Masters of Air in January, and this on February

    1. That is quite lovely of them, seems we can count on them to produce some new period set shows in the future, but so far everything has been crap coming from them.

  3. I hope this one is filled with glitz and glam. Not that I can afford their styles, I do love seeing them anyway.

    1. I wonder if we will ever have any designer clothes. I am cheap as hell, so even if I had millions don't think I would give it to them.

    2. Same. It boggles my mind when pants cost 4x my monthly mortgage payment. I used to spend $75 on dressy work pants and thought that was a lot! I think I’d rather take a vacation than own super expensive clothes.

    3. The most expensive thing I even bought when it comes to clothes are probably my dark violet sneakers which were about 90$ but just because they were new then. I had to have them as all my wardrobe was violet back then. These days I am mostly just navy.
