Let’s face it, whether you’re a sci-fi or rom-com fan, we all love to curl up on the sofa or in bed and watch a good film. What’s even better is when a film gives you a wealth of style inspiration, especially if you’re a fashion fan!

Many of us often look into our wardrobe and feel a little underwhelmed, often leading to a shopping trip for a new women’s skirt, dress, pair of heels or new bag. Whether you love the sophisticated selection of outfits worn by Audrey Hepburn or the quirky outfits from Clueless, here are 5 of our top fashion films to inspire your next shopping trip.

The Devil Wears Prada

When aspiring writer Andy (Anne Hathaway) gets offered a job working for Miranda Priestley (Meryl Streep), her life (and sense of style) is completely transformed. With catty put downs, plenty of attitude and a wardrobe to die for, it’s safe to say that this film has it all. Whether you’re a big fan of gorgeous couture gowns perfect for that paparazzi moment or styles that will make all your work colleagues green with envy, it’s a top watch for inspiration.

Zoolander

Quirky and hilarious, this film follows the life of two male models and their rivalry. With appearances from the likes of Tom Ford, David Bowie and Natalie Portman, it may have one of the most fashionable casts ever seen in a single film. Although the styles might not be to everyone’s taste, you’ll still be able to take some inspiration from it.

Coco Before Chanel

Confessions Of A Shopaholic

The film that’s likely to touch those who love shopping. The film centres around Becky who is addicted to shopping. In an ironic twist, she’s also a writer for a financial magazine, advising readers on how to save their money. With a mountain of clothes, shoes and accessories to be in awe of, we love the wardrobe of this film.

Breakfast At Tiffany’s

We all know about the little black dress. The second she appeared onscreen wearing one, the whole world swooned and longed for one just like it. A true romantic comedy, from start to finish Audrey Hepburn wows us with her sophisticated dresses, striking tailored coats and other fabulous ensembles. It’s the type of film that revolutionised the world of fashion, with some of its influences still seen in collections today.
