It is as you can tell about a bank robbery, but really well done, especially first season. It is a Spanish show.&nbsp;<br />Sara L. - thanks for recommending Lovesick. I just watched a few episodes on my very long commute, and it is really fun. The main character is super sweet, and the actor is very good even though I did not like him at all in Genuis playing a young Einstein.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1900211 Tue, 20 Mar 2018 15:26:24 +0000 Sara L. 1900211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>texstyle - if you're looking for a nondark Netflix show, you might try Lovesick.&nbsp; It's a British rom-com that is funny, cute, and charming.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899951 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 16:45:36 +0000 texstyle 1899951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the heads up Susie! I'm always looking for the "non dark" series on Netflix. Have watched some of Master of None which is a comedy series. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899857 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 08:12:09 +0000 CocoLion 1899857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Susie and Angie. &nbsp;Always looking for Netflix suggestions. &nbsp;Will have to add Velvet and Narcos to the Netflix queue. &nbsp;</p> <p>Mom (who is from Berlin) is enjoying Berlin Babylon, I think it's a Netflix original. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899845 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 06:03:58 +0000 deb 1899845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, I want to check it out now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899520 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 18:01:34 +0000 Angie 1899520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds fab. Thanks, <b>Susie</b>.</p> <p>Speaking of Spanish subtitles - we are on the the last season of "Narcos" - it's OUTSTANDING. Unfortunately a true story. Very sad and violent, but extremely interesting and quite mind blowing. Actors very compelling.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899512 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 17:50:42 +0000 Staysfit 1899512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I watched it, all the seasons! Great show and fun fashion too! I think I started to learn some Spanish as I was watching it. (I took French in High School, and have been to France and Montreal.). Did you see Cable Girls? The theme isn’t about fashion, but there is still a lot of good fashion in the series, and it is also a Spanish soap opera, so it has the same sort of drama that Velvet has. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899439 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 12:36:18 +0000 gradfashionista 1899439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My grandmother-in-law loved this show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899427 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 11:55:13 +0000 L'Abeille 1899427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the recommendation! I have it on my wish list because it looks interesting and is about fashion, but haven't heard anything about it until now. (And my list is so long I'll never get through it all.)</p> <p>A perhaps similar show I have enjoyed on Netflix in the past is a Japanese series about a young woman who joins the team of a lingerie designer. I think it was called Atelier.<br /> w </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899368 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 03:20:37 +0000 anne 1899368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hadn't heard of it, but it sounds like I'd like it! Will keep an eye out when we next get Netflix (which will be in the middle of the year for a little while - we only get it during holidays) Not sure if Australian Netflix has it though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899345 Sat, 17 Mar 2018 01:33:51 +0000 rachylou 1899345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel like maybe I started watching Velvet, but I may be confusing it with another Spanish series which involved seamstresses but also typewriters... If it’s the same, it’s a very rich drama... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899301 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 22:29:45 +0000 Anonymous 1899301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sounds interesting - will have to check it out! &nbsp;I'm inbetween series myself, but am about to start Olive Kitteridge (4 part HBO based on the novel - starring Frances McDormand) tonight, hopefully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/velvet-netflix-series-anyone#post-1899300 Fri, 16 Mar 2018 22:26:35 +0000 Susie 1899300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I apologize if this has been discussed before but has anyone watched Velvet? It’s not a new show but one I just discovered last month. I absolutely LOVED this show and my husband did too! </p> <p>It’s set in Madrid (it’s in Spanish with subtitles) in the 50’s and 60’s, about a fashion/design store. </p> <p>The main character is Ana who comes to live with her uncle as a young girl. He is the head of personnel for Velvet and he and Ana- along with the seamstresses and sales clerks- have living quarters in the store. Ana falls in love with Alberto, the son of the family who owns Velvet. But his father sends Alberto away to London to keep them apart. Ana becomes a seamstress in the store and eventually a designer. </p> <p>Like Downton Abbey, the stories of the ‘help’ are just as interesting as those of the upper class store owners and customers . I loved the characters, their stories, the music, and of course the fashion. </p> <p>If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it. We stayed up late the other evening to finish the last few episodes. </p> <p> I am sad that it’s over and need to find a new series... any recommendations? </p>
