AZZEDINE ALAIA- a true master.
Take a journey inside the Paris studio of master couturier AZZEDINE ALAIA. This touching and thoughtful documentary by uber Stylist Joe McKenna shows the master at work in his Atelier. Watching the designer create patterns and drape designs on models is both illuminating and awe inspiring, his exacting eye not missing a thing. He even caters Lunch in the studio for his entire team every day, and would appear to be almost a father figure to his staff! Naomi Campbell calls him ‘Papa’. With contributions from fashion stalwarts such as Suzy Menkes, Vanessa Friedman and Nicholas Ghesquiere, it’s a rather enlightening insight.
A definite highlight is the designer dancing with his huge St.Bernard in the studio.
