7 yrs 90 minutes • 2016 • 7.1

The Metropolitan Museum of Arts in New York houses the largest collection of fashion in the world, and the first Monday of May each year the museum hosts a glamorous fashion show as the start for the new spring exhibition. Dressed up celebrities gather to enjoy amazing creations and haute couture. In this documentary, director Andrew Rossi has followed Vouge's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour and Andrew Bolton from The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute as they create the exhibition and the gala China Through the Looking Glass. We get to deal with both challenges and tough questions, such as - is fashion really art? Stefan Hedmark at Aftonbladet writes that the documentary contains "eye candy for those who are especially interested in fashion."
