Haute Couture


I have four pbs stations, three for sure, but I am pretty sure it's four. One of them is actually very good and doesn't just show kid's cartoons, Antiques Roadshow, and random concerts. WLRN has some very good documentaries, I recently saw one on haute couture out of the BBC entitled Secret World of Haute Couture. It was a very interesting look behind both the creative side and the consumer side of high priced clothing. Margy Kinmonth interviews Karl Lagerfeld and other couturiers and the customers that go to the shows and purchase these extravagant items. It was quite interesting to see the process go from sketch to closet.
