LONDON -- The first Fashion in Film Festival will take place in London's Cine Lumiere, the Horse Hospital and the Institute of Contemporary Arts on May 14-27.
Under the motto "Between Stigma and Enigma," the festival will screen pics including Luis Bunuel's "Diary of a Chambermaid," Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo," Bruce Weber's docu "Chop Suey" and Slava Tsukerman's 1980s classic "Liquid Sky" plus instructional and propaganda films, newsreels, artist videos and fashion photographers' shorts.
In Q&A sessions with fashionistas such as ex-Vogue features editor Bronwyn Cosgrave or fashion designer Shelley Fox, fest will explore the ambiguous relationship between fashion and film.
