| Description/Abstract: | Fashion in Film Festival opened in London in May 2006 with its first edition titled " Between Stigma and Enigma," a retrospective showcase of film and video work on fashion. It was screened at three unique London venues: Ciné lumière (French Institute), The Horse Hospital and the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA). Featuring a mix of early and classic cinema, contemporary art, as well as documentary, instruction and propaganda film, it sent viewers on blissfully satisfying and fickle journeys peppered with fine clothes and foxy attitudes. Fashion in Film Festival hosted a special screening of the rarely seen cult film Qui êtes-vous, Polly Maggoo? and welcomed its director William Klein as the Festival’s 2006 Guest of Honour.
Film screenings were followed by lectures, informal talks and Q&A sessions with filmmakers, artists, critics and fashion designers including Anna-Nicole Ziesche, Jean-François Carly, Penny Martin and Shelley Fox. Two silent films in the Shoes, Eroticism and Fetish programme, The Gay Shoe Clerk (1903) and the rare gem Amor Pedestre (1914), were accompanied by music especially composed for the occasion by The WOLFMEN (Marco Pirroni and Chris Constantinou). |
