Unsung heroes
|
In 1995, Isaac Mizrahi, his A-list supermodels, and celebs like Sandra Bernhard were a fabulous sight to see working behind the scenes. How would they interact? Where does each find key inspiration? What past events brought them to this position? What do they wear? Are they as nice as they appear? We learn all this and more.
But a decade later, I am more fascinated at the quiet presence in this movie of people who have since become semi-famous:
Robert Best, from Season 3 of Project Runway, is present throughout Unzipped as Mizrahi's unsung assistant. Tricia Helfer of Battlestar Galactica and Padma Lakshmi of Top Chef appear as then-unknown models. Mizrahi praises another ever-present assistant, Nina, but we learn little about her.
Thanks to shows and movies such as Project Runway, The Devil Wears Prada, and Ugly Betty, audiences know more about fashion than they did in 1994. And so, while respecting that only so much ground could be covered in one movie, I am left wanting to know a bit more about the activities and inspirations of the workers that made Mizrahi's success possible.
This information as well as followup information about Mizrahi and the supermodels could have been provided as extras on the DVD but sadly, the DVD has no extras. |
