Exhibition Videos
The eight short videos in the exhibition were created by Baz Luhrmann. In the videos, Miuccia Prada talks with Schiaparelli, who is played by actress Judy Davis. "Schiap" and Prada are seated at a dining table in a dialogue created using paraphrased excerpts from Schiaparelli's autobiography, Shocking Life, and Prada's filmed remarks. Viewers have the impression of eavesdropping on a fantastical meeting of two great fashion minds.
