Synopsis

Set against the dazzling yet demanding world of Paris Fashion Week, Couture, weaves together a story of ambition, identity, and the quiet strength found in unexpected connections. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Alice Winocour, the film follows three women from vastly different worlds somehow finding their lives intertwined. An American filmmaker confronting a personal turning point, a rising model navigating the pressures of an unforgiving industry, and a backstage artist longing for something more. 

Beneath the surface of glamour and precision, Couture reveals a more intimate narrative, where every fleeting glance an unspoken moment carries weight. The film explores the emotional cost of chasing perfection, and the resilience it takes to redefine one’s path. The film has been in the official selection of the Toronto International Film Festival and the San Sebastian International Film festival, earning its place as a compelling voice in contemporary cinema.
