“Savile Row” and “The Red Carpet Issue” on the Sundance Channel
Get ready for a week of new on-air programming from the Sundance Channel’s Full Frontal Fashion.
Starting Feb. 8, the Sundance Channel will kick it off with the premiere of the series “Savile Row” and the U.S. premiere of “The Red Carpet Issue.”
“Savile Row” – 7 p.m. Feb. 8: The three-part documentary series goes inside the venerable bespoke tailoring firms – the best in the world — on and around this quiet street in London’s elegant Mayfair district. Over the course of three one-hour episodes, “Savile Row” captures a background steeped in pride and tradition, where exquisite craftsmanship goes hand-in-hand with gentlemanly discretion. Meet tailors and their customers. The series explores the challenges facing Savile Row in the 21st century — and how it is responding.
“The Red Carpet Issue” — 8 p.m. Feb. 8: The U.S. television premiere of the latest documentary from France’s leading producers of fashion programming, Lalala (“Habillées”) and directed by Olivier Nicklaus, “The Red Carpet Issue” looks at the transformation of the red carpet ceremony from a private event into a popular phenomenon and multi-million dollar business. In it, renowned designer Karl Lagerfeld comments, “The fact that we pay actresses well saves them from doing bad films.” With insight and plenty of humor, the program considers the risks and rewards — for designers, stylists, media outlets and celebrities — of playing the red carpet game.
