Couture follows three women navigating the high-pressure Parisian fashion industry. Angelina Jolie stars as Maxine Walker, an American filmmaker confronting breast cancer while immersed in the glamour and chaos of Fashion Week. Her journey intertwines with Ada (Anyier Anei), a young model escaping a predetermined future in South Sudan, and Angèle (Ella Rumpf), a makeup artist working behind the scenes. As their lives intersect, the film explores themes of resilience, self-reflection, and solidarity, showing the quiet strength behind public performance in an industry built on spectacle.
Directed and written by Alice Winocour, the César-nominated filmmaker behind Proxima, Revoir Paris, and Disorder, the film emphasizes emotional intimacy as much as visual elegance. Supporting performances include Louis Garrel, Guillaume Marbeck, Garance Marillier, and Vincent Lindon, contributing to a layered portrait of ambition and vulnerability across cultures and professions.
The trailer positions Couture as a visually sumptuous and emotionally intricate experience. Set against the iconic Parisian catwalks, the story offers an intimate, almost behind-the-scenes look at the interpersonal dramas, career pressures, and personal awakenings that shape the lives of those who live and breathe fashion. While its appeal may skew toward viewers with a strong interest in fashion, art-house cinema, or character-driven stories, the film promises a unique glimpse into the intersection of creativity, risk, and personal discovery.
HanWay Films is bringing Couture to French theaters on February 18, 2026, with international release plans TBD. For those drawn to the glitz and grind of fashion, or the quiet heroism of women navigating professional and personal challenges, this is one to watch.
