Fashion Frenzy

Patricia Field is making her mark once again after her oh so well known run on Sex and the City...she has had a new store opening on 302 Bowery (which I need to go check out still:) , and is styling for two new fashion focused films as well as styling the television sitcom, Hope and Faith.
One film already out is The Devil Wears Prada, which is supposed to be a reflection of people in the fashion/magazine industry. This film has received much attention and is being critiqued as not representing the true fashion world...but, it is fiction and I believe that Patricia knows how to reflect a story line-look at all of her work. "Fashion is an insider thing, but this is a parody," Field explains. I have not seen the film yet...but, I should be able to go tomorrow and give my thoughts on the film soon after:)
The fashion buzz on Patricia now is a new film that she will be styling, The Girls Guide to Hunting and Fishing, starring Michelle Gellar. This character will be representing young women in the city living on a budget. I can't wait to see what Patricia cooks up on the screen this time...since The Devil Wears Prada is supposed to be more of a fashion fantasy...so we shall see...The Girls Guide to Hunting and Fishing based on Melissa Banks novel is due out in theatres in 2007.
