Fashion and cinema have always been closely linked. Designers often inhale vintage film images, and directors search for authors to help reveal the character of their heroes in a different way. On the eve of the large-scale Vogue World show in Hollywood, which will be dedicated to the connection between fashion and cinema, we can imagine these most colorful teams of designers and directors.

Christian Dior and Alfred Hitchcock
In 1950, Alfred Hitchcock wrote the line “Stage Fright”, and the main star was the actor Marlene Dietrich. Before that, the director often worked with the famous costume designer Edit Ged, but then he turned to the candidacy of Christian Dior. Vona said: “If there is no Dior, there will be no Dietrich.” For the actor, the designer created luxurious and elegant looks at once: high-waisted suits, unfavorable ballroom cloths and rich, rich feathers in the decor.

Pierre Balmain and Roger Vadim
Today, the Balmain brand is synonymous with sexuality, but the sensitive images created under their names found their masters back in the mid-twentieth century. Thus, the founder of the brand, Pierre Balmain, came up with costumes for the heroine Bridget Bardot in Roger Vadim’s film “And God Created the Woman.” This role brought the French actor popularity in the world, and young Juliette’s smart wardrobe, which consists of linen cloth shirts, tops with a visor and olives, is still breathing both designers and luxury women.

Coco Chanel and Alain Rene
The drama “Last Rock in Marienbad” by the French director Alain Rene Tsikav is not only an experimental approach to the structure of the epidemic, but also images. They were inspired by Coco Chanel herself, who dressed the main character Delphine Seyrig in elegant black cloth and luxurious evening decorations, embroidered feathers. For the French designer, working on the film marked a great turn in fashion. Before speaking, Karl Lagerfeld drew this fact from the biography of Gabrielle Chanel for the spring-summer 2011 collection.

Hubert de Givenchy and Blake Edwards
“A Dream at Tiffany's” is one of the most popular fashion films. The iconic pair of black cloth with high mittens, a beige trench coat and seam hustkas, in which the heroine Audrey Hepburn appears on the screen, quote dosi. Having invented this outfit, designer Hubert de Givenchy, his friendship with Hepburn gave the world's cinema a number of brighter films in the films “Sabrina”, “The Little Face” and “How to Steal a Million”. Before the speech, in 2006, the same cloth for Golly Golightly was sold at auction for £467,200.

Yves Saint Laurent and Louis Buñuel
The images of Catherine Deneuve in the drama “Beauty of the Day” still have a sultry and provocative look, although more than 50 years have passed since the film was released. Having created them, Saint Laurent is a designer who loves to break the rules. Working with Deneuve and Buñuel, he once again demonstrated his talent for creating clothes that appeal to emotions. In his hands is Séverine Serisy, a respectable bourgeois Parisian who was willing to work in the house of divorce, and at the same time has an elegant and soothing appearance.

Paco Raban and Roger Vadim
French director Roger Vadim, knowing how important visual elements are in cinematography, began working with the finest designers. Thus, to work on the costumes for the famous “Barbarelli”, he asked the Spaniard Paco Rabanne, a designer, without any importance to show the fashion of the 1960s. For this space-age story, the designer created a variety of costumes: metal chain mail, studded bodysuits and high boots, coated with metal. The leading lady, Jane Fonda, became a leading sex symbol of her era after Barbarelli.

Giorgio Armani and Paul Schroeder
The melodrama “American Gigolo” with Richard Gere in the lead role became a lucky break for the Italian Giorgio Armani. The unpretentious wardrobe of the main character Julian Kay was so much appreciated by those watching that celebrities, business representatives, and the creative class were looking for perfect suits to the designer. It was 1980, and Arman himself later became one of the leading designers of the decade.
