Movie Madness!

You know what's awesome? Netflix
You know what is even more awesome? Netflix Instant movies that play right through your computer
You know what is even more awesome than that? Netflix suggesting you check out the documentary entitled "Seamless"


Seamless is a film that follows three designers/design houses (Proenza Schouler, Cloak, Doo.Ri) trying to make it in the fashion industry. The difference here is that all three of these designers are already well known names vying for the CFDA/ Vogue fashion fund that help catapult their lines and help these designers survive with an award of 200,000 dollars.

Overall, this movie is a great look at the business side of the industry. For those of you who want to design, this film will give you a good idea of how important it is to remember that your name is also a business, and a great business mind will get you just as far as a great design mind.

Our favorite designers on the documentary were the fluffy but loveable team of Proenza Schouler. You will remember them from their TARGET: GO INTERNATIONAL collection.

Here are some of their amazing designs. We love Proenza Schouler because they are another great example of two young industry people who made a success for themselves! Not to mention they are totally adorable.
