Man behind the dress(es)
19 June 2014
The name alone should be something people recognize. For women but even for men the name should mean something. Same goes for me, though I was never aware of the story behind the man who created a trademark. It's a bit of a cliché that men who "make" dresses, are more likely to be drawn to men. But the movie does a good job of finding a balance and showing off a real human being. One with many flaws and vices, as many as virtues I suppose.

So even if you're not aware of the man himself, you might find something intriguing here. And the beautiful Charlotte is a great companion to break into the male dominated world, where obviously the focus lies on our main actor. And a terrific job he's doing here, always balancing many aspects of a life that while many have longed for, none would have wanted to turn exactly like that. Being with people, does not take away sadness or loneliness ... but watching this playing out, is more than incredible.
