Movie: FIRST MONDAY IN MAY

Documentarian Andrew Rossi chronicles the creation of the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art’s most attended fashion exhibition in history, ‘China: Through The Looking Glass’.

With unprecedented access, filmmaker Andrew Rossi captures the collision of high fashion and celebrity at the Met Gala, one of the biggest global fashion events chaired every year by Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour. Featuring a cast of renowned artists in many fields (including filmmaker Wong Kar Wai and fashion designers Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Paul Gaultier and John Galliano) as well as a host of contemporary pop icons like Rihanna, the movie dives into the debate about whether fashion should be viewed as art.

Sunday Star Times- Sarah Watt 4 1/2 Stars “Compulsive viewing for wannabe fashionistas”.

News Hub- Kate Rodger 4 Stars “Much substance amid the style here and surprisingly so. In fact, it’s quite a nail-biter, so book your post-screening manicure now”.

Directed by Andrew Rossi (‘Page One: Inside the New York Times’, ‘Ivory Tower’, ‘Eat This New York’)
Starring Andrew Bolton, John Galliano, Karl Lagerfeld, Baz Luhrmann, Rihanna, Anna Wintour, Kar-Wai Wong
