We are delighted to welcome Nan Devitt Tremblay for a special screening of her archival documentary Carton d’invitation (2023). This captivating film peels back the curtain on fashion’s "Golden Age”, offering a behind-the-scenes look at an industry in flux through the eyes of Fashion Television’s elusive Paris correspondent.
With candid interviews featuring visionaries like Karl Lagerfeld, Alexander McQueen, and Jean Paul Gaultier, Carton d’invitation chronicles the shift of fashion from an intimate art form to a global cultural force. Salvaged footage from the 1980s and 90s intertwines with personal reflections, offering a vivid portrayal of a world where the brilliance of the runway meet the complexities of daily life.
At its heart, Carton d’invitation is a journey into the pulse of a changing world, where fashion became both a mirror and a catalyst for cultural transformation. Through rare backstage encounters and unguarded moments, the film reveals the human stories behind the spectacle—those whose vision and creativity redefined an era and left an indelible mark on both the industry and society.
After the screening, Nan Devitt Tremblay will share insights into the making of the documentary and her experiences as Fashion Television’s Paris correspondent during this pivotal era. We invite you to join the conversation and explore the intersection of fashion, media, and cultural history with the filmmaker herself.
We look forward to welcoming you on Tuesday, 11th of February, 18:00–20:00 at the International Library of Fashion Research. Admission is free & coffee will be served.
