New Netflix Docuseries Chronicles Chanel’s Spring Haute Couture Show
Each episode of "7 Days Out" centers around a visionary working in the realms of fashion, food, space, sports and entertainment.

STREAMING SOON: Netflix is adding to its network of fashion-focused documentaries offered on the streaming platform.
Joining such films as “Dries” and “Manolo: The Boy Who Made Shoes for Lizards” will be a new docuseries called “7 Days Out.” The film was directed by Andrew Rossi — who helmed “The First Monday in May,” the documentary about the Met Gala’s most-attended exhibit in history, “China Through the Looking Glass.”
Each self-contained episode of the “7 Days” series centers around one week in the life of a visionary and his or her team working in the realms of fashion, food, space, sports and entertainment. The inaugural episode concerns the house of Chanel.
“Seven Days Out” documents the final preparations Karl Lagerfeld made prior to the brand’s spring 2018 haute couture show. Rossi was given full access to Lagerfeld and his crew’s activities, allowing the director to freely shoot what happened in the week before the presentation — from the studio, to Chanel’s haute couture ateliers and the ateliers of Chanel’s Métiers d’Art.
The movie will be available on Netflix Dec. 21.
Thank you my dear!
Australia’s fashion industry has evolved into a forward-thinking one that never fails to push the envelope, and this December, Vogue Australia celebrates being a pillar of this industry for a total of 60 years now.
In those 60 years, Vogue Australia has built a rich and rather dynamic history that inspired us to produce a documentary, titled Vogue Australia: Sixty Years Through The Lens. The documentary serves to highlight Vogue Australia’s evolution as it celebrates its diamond anniversary.
While exploring where the magazine has come from and where it has been, the documentary also looks to where Vogue Australia is headed, and what it has to do in order to continue to stay true to its trailblazing roots.
“This year marks a significant milestone in the history of Vogue Australia and for our December 60th anniversary issue, we are delivering a rich program of events,” says Vogue Australia editor-in-chief Edwina McCann. “This includes a very special documentary telling Vogue’s Australian story, where we’ve come from and our focus on the future, while celebrating our real diamond, our cover star Nicole Kidman,” she adds.
A number of the stories told in the pages of Vogue Australia throughout its history have centred on the achievements of those that are at the forefront of the fashion industry, and it is those changemakers that speak to the publication’s impact in the documentary, which was produced by Alaud Productions.
Throughout the course of the film, cover stars including Margot Robbie, Elle Macpherson, Nicole Kidman, Adut Akech and Gemma Ward reflect on their shoots, while contributors Baz Luhrmann, Catherine Martin, Jenny Kee, Linda Jackson and Collette Dinnigan touch on their work with the publication and David Leser, the son of Vogue Australia founder Bernie Leser, shares a series of insights into the magazine’s history.
Condé Nast International chief operating officer and president Wolfgang Blau and Vogue Australia guest editor Emma Watson also talk to the publication’s commitment to supporting sustainable fashion, together with the support of the arts and indigenous culture, inclusivity, diversity and creativity.
Interviews and archive materials serve to give viewers a sneak peek into the inner workings of the industry, while the unique relationship between Vogue Australia and Cartier, one of the first international luxury jewellers to develop a strong presence in Australia, is explored.
The documentary follows McCann, who is joined by fashion director Christine Centenera, as they travel to Paris to select the Cartier diamonds worn by Nicole Kidman on the December cover. In addition to that, exclusive access to the Cartier workshop in Paris gives viewers the opportunity to discover the signature savoir-faire and unparalleled design of Cartier’s exceptional diamonds.
Tune in to Foxtel on Wednesday, November 27 at 8.30pm AEDT for the premiere of Vogue Australia: Sixty Years Through The Lens on Fox Showcase.
Who cares?I watched that Ralph documentary. Nothing new, really. But I loved how they tried to show Ralph as always being oh-so-inclusive towards models of color, when we TFSers know that hasn't always been the case, and we have the threads here to prove it.
We deserve a for that one.
