An Indescribable Comedic Horror

Looking for a bargain during the busy winter sales period, a lonely woman (Oscar-nominee Marianne Jean-Baptiste) visits a bewitching London department store and finds a dress that will transform her life. She's fitted with a perfectly flattering, artery-red gown—which will come to unleash a malevolent curse and unstoppable evil, threatening everyone who comes into its path. 

With influences of giallo and vintage Euro-horror, In Fabric is a deliciously strange and macabre vision from the warped mind of director Peter Strickland (Berberian Sound Studio,The Duke of Burgundy). Hypnotic and hallucinatory, it’s a fashionista satire that’s as funny as it is haunting.
