Paramount+ developing a show based on Robert Altman’s 1994 fashion industry satire film Prêt-à-Porter

Deadline

The 1994 film, which was released in the U.S. as Ready to Wear, chronicles the interconnected lives of a group of people in the lead-up to the 1994 Paris Fashion Week, where models, designers, reporters and fashion editors gather to present next year’s trends. The movie featured Sophia Loren, Kim Basinger, Lauren Bacall, Julia Roberts, Tim Robbins and Forest Whitaker. "Written by Ava Pickett, I hear the series will focus on the next generation, revolving around young people on the first rung of success’ ladder," reports Deadline's Denise Petski. "It is envisioned as an aspirational series about ambition thwarted, youth culture and identity in crisis, and fighting for what you want."
