New thing today, watched The Tents, a documentary on New York Fashion Week and the Bryant Park tents. I was surprised how good this was. I thought it might be sort of fluffy or uninteresting, but they took interviews and snippets from interesting people, and told the history of New York Fashion Week in an informative and entertaining way. They had anecdotes from different designers, fashion journalists, fashion folk and organizers, and you got a glimpse of what it used to be, what it is now and what it evolving into. I love the history and evolution of the industry, and the way it used to be a sneak peak for insiders only, to a popular huge mass influential event. I used to event plan, so it was interesting to see some behind the scenes stuff that they pull off during the week with all the planning and stuff that goes on.
If you watch Project Runway, or like fashion, you may really enjoy this documentary. Even for non-fashion type people, it's just interesting. Surprisingly substantial and sucks you in. I thought maybe I'd get bored or distracted, but I enjoyed it until the end :)
