Fashion has become a very common subject in today’s Movies, TV Series and Reality Shows.  At Urth, we never miss the chance for a Team Fashion Movie night out to always be in the loop and learn something new. Check our favorite ones below! 

How interesting and fascinating would it be to have the chance of knowing the “behind the scenes” of certain brands, collections, fashion designers, new launches, production bulks, and so on? 

Luckily for us, in the last decade, Fashion has become a more and more chosen subject by filmmakers, directors, and TV series creators.

This growing sake is probably driven by the impressive growth of fashion both in terms of market dimensions and people’s interest.
