Now that November has begun with several weeks of confinement, it’s the perfect time to indulge in luxury documentaries. Whether you’re a fashion enthusiast, a jewelry lover, a foodie, or a design enthusiast, there is a wide range of captivating documentaries to choose from. So, sit back, relax, and dive into the world of elegance and creativity.
Fashion icons have always captured our attention, and documentaries about fashion designers can be truly mesmerizing. One such example is the tribute made by Arte last year, following the death of designer Karl Lagerfeld. The documentary paid homage to Lagerfeld’s incredible career and influence in the fashion industry. Another noteworthy documentary is “Very Ralph,” which was recently released on the OCS platform. It chronicles the life of Ralph Lauren, showcasing interviews with the designer himself and his close friends, including Anna Wintour and Hillary Clinton. For a more personal touch, “Wonder Boy” tells the story of Olivier Rousteing, the artistic director of the Balmain fashion house. This documentary follows Rousteing’s journey in search of his biological parents, adding an emotional depth to the narrative. Lastly, “Martin Margiela: In His Own Words” is a highly anticipated documentary honoring the Belgian couturier. While the creator’s voice is heard, director Reiner Holzemer has managed to maintain the enigmatic aura surrounding Margiela.
