It is essential you know the basic story of YSL before watching or some of the characters who are barely in the film will seem superfluous. There is also a gratuitous nude scene that cheapens the film because it looks like a desperate attempt to win an audience by exposing the considerable asset of the lead actor.

- DirectorSean GarrityStarsPortia DoubledayMarc-André GrondinChris NothAfter a young fashion designer runs afoul of her corrupt stepmother and stepsisters, she dons a disguise to help save the family business for her father.Cute retelling of the Cinderella story set in Montreal's dwindling fashion industry.
