About This Movie

So, ‘Mode in France’ from '85 is this wild ride through the 80s fashion scene, with voices you recognize. The documentary’s got this quirky vibe, driven by Serge Gainsbourg’s score, which really adds to the eccentricity. You’ve got Karl Lagerfeld and Jean-Paul Gaultier, among others, showcasing their artistry and those vibrant styles. It’s not a straightforward doc; it blends commentary and visuals in a way that feels sort of intimate yet chaotic. The pacing keeps you engaged, jumping from one designer's vision to another, reflecting the shifts in women’s fashion at the time. A bit of a time capsule, really – the boldness of the decade comes through loud and clear.
