‘In Fabric’
In Fabric is an anthology horror film about one bewitching red dress — as the garment is passed around London, it wreaks havoc on its wearers. Sheila (Marianne Jean-Baptiste) is the first to purchase the dress from the puzzling saleswoman Miss Luckmoore (Fatma Mohamed). After she wears it for the first time on a date, she discovers a rash on her chest. The fabric continues to repent against Sheila and its other owners, eventually attempting to murder them all. Although the dress is devilishly striking, something evil seems to lurk within the needlework. Director Peter Strickland sews brilliant surrealism and morbid humor into this eerie fashion horror flick. In Fabric has several petrifying tales about the trends and clothes that define us.
