There’s just a lot here. But with a subject like Field, the mild chaos feels pleasantly appropriate.

In the aftermath, you can’t help but feel that Field deserved something splashier, a doc as unapologetically distinctive as its subject’s signature flaming red hair.

The documentary about the now 85-year-old Field was way more fascinating than I expected it to be.

POV Magazine

Field is a terrific character. The stylist has a natural gift for gab. Her raspy smoker’s voice fuels nearly every frame of the film.

Original Cin

A more formal narrative structure would have gone a long way in telling the story of American fashion icon Patricia Field. Then again, Field wholly embraces the quirky and by that metric, here gets something in line with her own aesthetic.

Rated: B

If you’re a lover of fashion, film, or simply a fan of trailblazers, this documentary is a must-watch. It’s a vibrant, colorful ode to a woman who has dressed some of our favorite characters, all while remaining true to her own.

Rated: 7/10
