Fashion

1979 · 1 season

A deadpan, fly-on-the-wall drift through runway culture, more a series of wry Polaroids than a story, best watched with half an eye.

Overview: Produced by Andy Warhol between 1979–1980 for Manhattan Cable, Fashion was a 10-episode series delving into runway culture, designers (like Halston), models, and makeup. It featured Warhol’s deadpan intros, SX-70 Polaroids, and a fly-on-the-wall style, bridging art, celebrity, and consumerism before MTV's Fifteen Minutes.
How it feels: Satirical, whimsical, earnest and campy. Slow-burning and fine in the background.
About: Celebrity, art, media, class
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
