Prêt à Porter (1994, France)

Frenetic film about the frenetic world of a haute couture fashion show in Paris. Considerable realism is brought into this long film, including several of the top couturiers playing themselves.

In a brief scene late in the film, some crossdressers are in a hotel restaurant on the periphery of the show. I think that feminine body language needs a bit of attention.

There is a discussion going on about whether there is a fundamental difference between a man who prefers female clothing and a transvestite.

The film has been released as Ready to Wear.
