Unzip the Madness: Isaac Mizrahi's Wild Fashion Saga Rocks Sundance at 30 Years!

Hold on to your fashion hats, because the iconic documentary "Unzipped" has sashayed back onto the big screen at the Sundance Film Festival! Celebrating its 30th anniversary, this documentary reveals the wild ride of Isaac Mizrahi’s creation of the 1994 fall collection. It's a trip back to when fashion was as audacious as the '90s themselves!

Director Douglas Keeve and Co-executive Producer Dori Berinstein hit the Sundance scene to revisit the film that first zipped open the hidden world of fashion. Keeve reveals the absolute thrill of filming the frenetic world of fashion, saying, "We put the fun in fashion." If you thought fashion was just about clothes, think again!

Prepare for an unfiltered look into the eccentric inspirations of Mizrahi. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill fashion flick—it's raw, real, and completely bonkers! The film, filled with iconic fashion figures like Princess Diana and Karl Lagerfeld, is a glam-packed rollercoaster you don't want to miss.

Here's the juicy part: Keeve dishes on how models, like the legendary Naomi Campbell, enter a zen-like focus on the runway. It’s not just a catwalk—it’s a battlefield of fierce concentration!

Flash forward 30 years, and the fashion world’s evolution has been, well, nothing short of dramatic. Keeve nostalgically reflects on conversations with Vera Wang, revealing how the industry’s ties to culture and politics have waned over time. Once an art, now more commerce, fashion’s pendulum has swung!

So why should you care? Because this film is a time capsule to when creativity reigned supreme. Keeve shares how Tom Ford once articulated the chaos and excitement of the fashion world, saying it takes "moving heaven and earth" to bring a designer's vision to life. Expect breathtaking moments, last-minute curtain calls, and a side of frenzy in this captivating fashion saga.

Step into this whirlwind and watch as "Unzipped" showcases a world where visionaries could be unapologetically themselves, all while crafting runway magic. It's the fashion history lesson we all need!
