Synopsis

The film depicts model Christy Turlington and her friends Naomi Campbell, Yasmin Le Bon, Kate Moss, Helena Christensen, Gail Elliott and Carla Bruni as they jetted between Milan, Paris, and New York City during Spring 1994 Fashion Week. Turlington is featured walking in shows and attending fittings for Chanel, Versace, Dior, Giorgio Armani, Jean Paul Gaultier, Karl Lagerfeld, John Galliano, Anna Sui and finally Isaac Mizrahi. Between shows, Turlington is shown shooting a cover for W, socialising with her friends and attending a photo exhibition for Bruce Weber. In the final scene, Turlington is depicted being drawn by artist Francesco Clemente.

The film was shot in black and white and color and incorporated behind-the-scenes footage of many designers at work, including Lagerfeld, Valentino Garavani, Azzedine Alaia, a young John Galliano, and Gianni Versace four years before his death.[1]

Reception

The film received generally negative reviews. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a score of 29% based on reviews from 7 critics. In 1996, The New York Times gave Catwalk a negative review, opining "the film makes it clear that Ms. Turlington is used to being stared at by everyone around her. And these star-struck gazes eventually become more interesting than the model herself, since they reveal the aura of privilege that accompanies great beauty. Nothing Ms. Turlington says, no matter how vapid, is greeted with anything less than giddy admiration. So if she seems self-involved, no wonder."[2]
