Best Fashion Show in Popular Culture: The Delightfully Absurd Zoolander Catwalks

.This year's Pressures of Manner, happening on October 16, is devoted to the craft, dramatization, and also influence of the runway throughout history. In honor of that, Trend editors are actually discussing their favored fictitious fashion shows that have actually seemed in movies as well as television shows throughout the years.I might have simply been 9-years-old when 2001's Zoolander initially came out, but I remember it promptly becoming one of my favorite as well as most-watched movies. (It still is actually.) Growing up in non-urban Canada, the high-fashion planet was a complete enigma to me-- yet I was actually intrigued and also captivated by it, particularly after seeing Zoolander. Despite the fact that the film-- which stars Derek (Ben Stiller) as well as Hansel (Owen Wilson) as contending, not-so-bright supermodels-- spoofs the apparel industry to an absurd level, I was right away infatuated along with the ridiculous, extravagant planet that it generated. My preferred scenes, naturally, were the silly and also staged bridge moments-- whether it was the dramatic "walk-offs" between Derek as well as Hansel (as well as judged by David Bowie, no much less), or even the garbage-themed couture compilation (knowned as "Derelicte") that wicked developer Mugatu (Are going to Ferrell) debuts near completion of the motion picture. It was actually all a total banquet for the eyes.Photo: Getty Images.
