The last time I was this excited about a fashion and film collaboration, it was in 2015 when I interviewed Iris Apfel during her press tour for the documentary, Iris.

Not many things have compared to that feeling of stepping into the world of that feisty, fabulous (and now 98-year-old) woman, until now. Hedi Slimane, the creative, artistic, and image director behind the Parisian fashion house Celine, has partnered with the online streaming service MUBI to create a list of his 10 favorite films. How quarantine chic!

Enviable Style Icons? Check. Forbidden Romance? Check. Brutal War Drama? Oh yeah. Slimane’s picks include a wide span of classic and cult favorites, including Xavier Dolan’s Laurence Anyways and Stanley Donen’s Charade starring Audrey Hepburn and Carey Grant.

MUBI has become our go-to for inspiring cinematic escapes during these times, and now it can be yours too because Hedi Slimane and MUBI are inviting everyone to enjoy 30 days for free.

Watch any of the Slimane’s picks on MUBI until May 31st, 2020 on https://mubi.com/hedislimane.
