Fashion Week

Behind the Scenes: The BCBG Family

Reader Aaron sent us this documentary on the life of BCBG pre-Fashion Week.

The rough cut documentary gets up-close and personal with Lubov Azria, Max’s wife, as she heads to New York to prepare for three major fashion shows: BCBG, Max Azria and Herve Leger.

She discusses the importance of celebrities wearing their clothes and delves into the major differences between the three brands. It’s interesting to see, as an outsider, how six months of work culminates in ten minutes on a runway.

As for Max? His main point of discussion is his wife’s perfectionism. Between the two of them, it’s no wonder Herve’s revival’s been so wildly successful.

Parts II & III after the jump.

I was soooo afraid of Lubov until I actually got around her. She wasn't, from my experience, nearly as bad as some people made her out to be.

Their work is amazing, but let me tell you he is such a womanizer! I was a hostess last year at a trendy NY soho restaurant and he came in with a huge group of mostly women, probably after a show, but canoodling with a not incredibly hot but young tall blond the entire night and even hit on me, trying to read my palm and horoscope. Impressive clothes, not so impressive persona.

I love Max and Lubov! I interned in their NY showroom last fall during runway. Lubov is gorgeous and brilliant; she's that woman who is just a natural at things like this. And Max? I recall him as being an adorably happy short man.

Really hope they'll do more of these videos this year..
