There&#8217;s so much to love about the series. I adore the vintage Jewish New York aspect, which I somehow absorbed after living in Manhattan for 25 years. I still find myself using yiddish words like mensch, bubkes, shmaltzy, kvetch, and oy! (which makes absolutely no sense when you&#8217;re speaking Spanish, since it sounds like <em>hoy<\/em>&#8211;today). And I adore these fast-talking shows like the Gilmore Girls (same writer) because they&#8217;re so much like the old cinema I adore: Philadelphia Story, Casablanca, Desk Set, all those old films with Lots. Of. Talking. And let&#8217;s face it, I also love miss New York.<\/p>\n<p>And, let&#8217;s not forget, Mrs. Maisel also has great fashion! The colors, the silhouettes, everything about it is fashion-y. S loves it too. So here&#8217;s my question for the week:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/16-fashion-films-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74162\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/16-fashion-films-1-760x748.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"760\" height=\"748\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/16-fashion-films-1-760x748.jpg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/16-fashion-films-1-500x492.jpg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/16-fashion-films-1-768x756.jpg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/16-fashion-films-1-1240x649.jpg 1240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Maisel got me thinking, what are your favorite movies and TV shows that feature fashion, either as the subject or simply for the great costumes?
