"I think what i often see is that people are frightened about fashion. Because it scares them or make them feel insecure they just put it down. On the whole people that may say, the mean things about our world I think that's usually because they feel, in some ways, excluded or, you know, not a part of 'the cool group' so as a result they just mock it. Just because you like to put on a beautiful Carolina Herrera dress or a pair of J Brand blue jeans instead of something basic from K-Mart it doesn't mean that you're a dumb person. There is something about fashion that can make people really nervous." - Anna Wintour


I've always been a person standing on the other side of the bridge but I found myself somehow buying those lines Anna said on the beginning of this documentary. Fashion is maybe the one thing I've been trying to "digest" these past few months but I'm not going to rant it all out. One thing that caught my attention most beside all the fashion thing is how Anna Wintour, the famous Vogue editor, and Grace Coddington, the creative director, have aged so gracefully and still being such a powerful working women. Both possessed great beauty in their youth and still do in their 60s and 70s. It's just yesterday when I had conversation with my colleagues talking about how sad it could be being elders and how we wished not to live a long life, but watching these two women kind of restore the faith that one shouldn't be that afraid of time and of age.
