Throughout the show, he’ll share his hilarious musings on everything of the moment from politics to dieting to his latest Instagram obsessions. The New York Times noted, “he is determined to challenge the cultural status quo and help blaze a path into a more liberated future where few subjects are off-limits.”

Douglas Keeve’s award-winning 1995 film Unzipped will be screened at Bay Street Theater on Sunday, October 10, at 4 p.m. followed by a live Q&A with Isaac Mizrahi and Bay Street’s Executive Director, Tracy Mitchell. The celebrated documentary provides a behind-the-scenes look at Mizrahi’s creative process as he builds his Fall 1994 collection, including personal discussions with friends and family. Throughout the film, Mizrahi surrounds himself with seminal figures including Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, and Kate Moss, as well as influential arbiters of the fashion industry, such as Polly Mellen, Candy Pratts, and Andre Leon Talley. The runtime is 73 minutes.
