Films for Frockistas #4 - Yellow is Forbidden

Fourth in a series of Sunday arvo get-togethers to watch documentaries and talk frocks, fabrics and fashion. All people who love to sew and other fabric appreciators welcome. 

On Sunday 22nd May we'll be screening Yellow is Forbidden 2018 Pietra Brettkelly (1h 37m) New Zealand

About the film:

YELLOW IS FORBIDDEN is a modern day Cinderella story where the brave, diminutive and daring heroine's dream doesn't end at the ball - China's Guo Pei is chasing every designer's fantasy - to become part of the exclusive yet savage world of Haute Couture. Set within the new China, YELLOW IS FORBIDDEN is a feature documentary encompassing contemporary global power dynamics and the opposition between art and commerce, looking back at the history of couture all wrapped around the beauty of fashion.

About Films for Frockistas

Once a week during May/June we're having a Sunday arvo session at Songlines for frockistas and frockaholics. Join like-minded peeps to watch a film, share nibbles and sewing tips. You can bring what you're working on for show and tell. 

We have set aside 2.5 hrs in the Songlines Experience Space for it. The space is air-conditioned, has a large screen and excellent sound system.

Songlines is open from 3.30 pm.

The screening will start at 4.00 pm.

On the program over coming weeks are iconic documentaries including McQueen. 

What to bring

We have bench seats, please bring your own chair and/or cushion if you'd like a bit more comfort. You are welcome to bring your own drinks/nibbles too. We'll be providing some too.

Who is putting this together

This is a Songlines project in collaboration with Flying Fox Fabrics & Darwin Frocktails.
