Fashion & Fantasy | Part 14

It’s often things that we take for granted or don’t notice until they are gone, such as the optimism of youth and the confidence of old age. It’s also having the time discover, find, and believe in ourselves; or it's the luxury of loving who we want to and not being afraid of anyone’s judgement, including our own. These ten films aim to depict luxury throughout the different stages of our lives, reminding us that it is something that comes from within ourselves.
