A Casa de Moda

Of the current shows streaming, this is the only one I am excited to watch every week. The premise probably isnt for everyone, much like couture fashion is not for everyone. Judging a show because it's too high brow without really giving it a chance is just hypocritical in itself.

The story is relevant, the acting is superb, the fashion is realistic, the power of the great French fashion houses is spot on. Halfway through the season right now, I'm hopeful it continues to get better and better. This is the type of show that shines a spotlight on an elusive industry that to this day is still very private and guarded. I'm not sure if this is meant to be a limited series or if more seasons are planned, but i for one, am all in!!

Great locations, wonderful architecture, feminine and LGBT support, but where is the fashion?

Beside the evilnees in Vincent, and the wicked Diane, the rest of the cast are out of the shape, no soul at all.

The character of Paloma is what France trying to tell the world like (the Olympics): we are mixing everything with everything, just swim the wave no strings attached, no rules, no history, no nothing.

Come on guys, if you want to stick feminine and LGBTQ in every hole, do it nicely, softly, and professionally. Can anyone make something like (The devil's wear prada) again?!

Or those days are gone.

This is worth watching because of the stunning architecture, interiors and some interesting artwork that flashes by. The fashion is okay if you like black, black and more black. The characters are nasty and there is a lot of homosexual passion with both sexes, which is overplayed. There is also a lot of generational tension. All this reminds me of the old soap operas like Dallas. Fortunately, fast forward gets past the annoying stuff. The conflict of values between the generations is the most interesting storyline. It's an important struggle, conversation and ultimately has to do with our collective human survival. It is life or death especially for younger people who are inheriting a sick planet. And yes the issues of racism, gender politics, classism, sexism etc are all present too.

The characters of this show are very dramatic. You will either love or hate the show. I doubt that there is something in the middle. The show is engaging but there is so much focus on sexual activity that the story seems to be lost at times. The show is obviously showing a very different side of life. There are many parts where the FF key is very useful. Some scenes are simply uninteresting and may be termed fillers as they add nothing to the story other than what one would say is pushing the envelope. There are many parts that are hard to follow because of this. In the end, those who like it will praise it and write a good review. Many who object to the content will stop after 2 episodes and not bother to write anything.

In my opinion, when someone rates a series or a movie, they should understand what they are actually rating. A TV show is many things, such as production, set design, cinematography, direction, and acting. This series has all of these, and at a very good level. I assume that the show's subject matter is not to everyone's liking, so I wonder, if you don't like the subject matter from the start, why would you come here and rate it a 2 or 3? Overall, the series definitely doesn't deserve a 2; nowadays, not even amateur videos we shoot with our phones deserve a 2. Overall, it is a well-made production that gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the fashion industry. The show delivers on that.
