Yesterday and friend and I went to see this film. We loved it. For those not familiar, Versailles 73' chronicles the 'battle' between five American designers- Oscar de la Renta, Halston, Stephen Burrows, Bill Blass & Ann Klein and five French designers- Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Dior, Pierre Cardin & Emanual Ungaro. American designers at that time weren't taken seriously by the classically trained French couturiers but this show changed the way we see runway fashion today.
