In episode 53, Michon and Taquiena aka The Boston Sisters talk about THE NEW LOOK and why they selected the Apple TV+ series as a binge-worthy historical drama.
THE NEW LOOK isn’t a "fashionista" story about designers Christian Dior (Ben Mendelsohn) and Coco Chanel (Juliette Binoche). Created by Todd Kessler and inspired by real events during World War II, THE NEW LOOK focuses on the impact of the 4-year Nazi occupation of France and the early months of Liberation on Paris’s community of haute couture designers, Resistance fighters, business owners, and everyday people all struggling to survive.
The series interweaves the complex choices of the two iconic fashion designers, Dior and Chanel, who ultimately would change fashion forever. However, Catherine Dior (Maisie Williams), the French Resistance fighter and younger sister of Christian Dior adds an important and overlooked chapter to World War II history.
