Paris Frills
Directed by Jacques Becker
Produced by Essor Cinematographique Francais
A stylish 1940s romance about a seductive dressmaker's first genuine love affair, set against the glittering but morally ambiguous world of haute couture.
Philippe Clarence, a famous Parisian dressmaker, seduces his friend's fiancee. But, for the first time in his life, this is for real. The film is also a sharp picture of the fashion world.
