40 Films That Inspire Fashion
Written by Tania Braukamper
The silver screen has long been the domain of sexy starlets and classic beauties, and the film industry's influence on fashion is certainly undeniable.
From the 1930s through to the present day, Carol Lee over at Papermag lists 40 films that will whet your appetite for fashion. From the classic styling of Kim Novak in Hitchcock's Vertigo, to Faye Dunaway's iconic look in Bonnie and Clyde, to Angelina Jolie's Gia. Interestingly enough it seems The Devil Wears Prada didn't make the cut on this list.
Not all obvious choices, so worth a look.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities.

But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.
She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
