This weekend I snuck away to see Wes Anderson’s latest film, Fantastic Mr. Fox. I will say that I have not even seen the latest Anderson films because they got too over worked for my taste. I heard that Mr. Fox was much shorter, 90 min., and I thought I could stomach it. I found out to my delight that the movie is excellent. It is Mr. Anderson at his best, short, styled, and sweet. Fantastic Mr. Fox follows Mr. Fox, played by George Clooney, as he tries to escape the fox hole he has been living in for a better life. He dreams of a bigger and more rewarding living. When he finally moves he is challenged by three farmers. As the hijinks and fun begins the characters are allowed to show their own motives. There are superb performances by Meryl Streep as Mrs. Fox and especially Jason Swartzman as their son.
Fantastic Mr. Fox is a movie to be seen by both young and old. As I was watching the movie I became envious of the wardrobe. These stop animation characters had fantastic style. They were tailored and modern classic designs. We wanted to pull out some of our favorite pieces and bring them to life. Bergdorf Goodman has some of the characters in their windows this holiday season.
J.Crew Corduroy Jacket – Okay, so it is not double-breasted, but it is close and is a modern take on this. Just make sure to wear it with a dark wash fit jean.
