Rueben's Ramblings

On February 10, the new Amazon series The Collection will debut online.

The series is a gripping family saga where scandal and betrayal plague the Sabine family’s relentless pursuit of success. Set in a post-war Parisian fashion house, the Sabines have been tasked with restoring the city’s supremacy as the haute couture capital. The series explores the grit behind the glamour of a rising business run by two clashing brothers. Paul (Richard Coyle from Coupling and Crossbones), is the face and the business sense while Claude (Tom Riley from Da Vinci’s Demons), is the creative genius. They’re nothing without each other but their rivalry, deception and the hateful bargains they made to survive the Nazi occupation could threaten to topple this “first family” of fashion’s empire at any moment. The season explores the constant question, will their tenuous relationship and the ghosts of their past destroy their meteoric success?

The cast includes Mamie Gummer (Emily Owens, MD and The Good Wife) and Frances de la Tour (Harry Potter franchise and Outlander)
