Die Vogue World 2025 in Los Angeles verbindet Mode, Film und Glamour. In dieser Podcast Episode sprechen wir über Highlights, Designer und warum dieses Event die Fashionwelt verändert. Nach dem Fashion Month, also dem intensiven Zeitraum, in dem die großen Fashion Weeks von New York bis Paris hintereinander stattfinden, folgt in diesem Jahr ein weiteres absolutes Mode-Highlight: die Vogue World 2025 in Los Angeles. Dieses Event hat sich in den letzten Jahren zu einem der wichtigsten Modeereignisse der Welt entwickelt – glamourös, emotional und voller Überraschungen. Auch in diesem Jahr stand alles im Zeichen der Symbiose aus Mode, Film und Kunst, denn die Veranstaltung fand in den legendären Paramount Studios statt und wurde, ganz im Stil von Hollywood, zu einem Spektakel aus Stil, Stars und Statement. Initiiert vom größten Modemagazin der Welt, der Vogue, ist die Idee hinter der Vogue World keine gewöhnliche Fashion Show. Ziel des Events ist es, die Arbeit von Kostümbildner:innen und Modeschaffenden in der Filmbranche zu ehren und deren Erbe zu bewahren. Alle Einnahmen kommen Stiftungen zugute, die sich für den Erhalt und die öffentliche Archivierung historischer Kostüme einsetzen – ein wichtiges Zeichen für das kulturelle Gedächtnis der Mode. Das Event selbst war in sieben Kapitel gegliedert, die jeweils eine eigene Ära und Stimmung verkörperten: eine visuelle Zeitreise durch die Geschichte von Film und Mode. Konzipiert wurde die Show als kreatives Miteinander von Kostümdesignern und internationalen Modeschöpfern, darunter Marc Jacobs, Anthony Vaccarello von Saint Laurent und Seán McGirr von Alexander McQueen. Wie es sich für Hollywood gehört, war die Gästeliste ein echtes Who's who der Popkultur: Miley Cyrus, Hailey Bieber und viele weitere Stars zeigten sich auf dem roten Teppich. Eröffnet wurde die Show spektakulär von Nicole Kidman, die in einem eleganten schwarzen Chanel-Kleid auftrat – ein Moment, der sofort viral ging. In dieser Podcast Episode sprechen wir über all das: über die Looks, ihre Bedeutung, und warum wir auf der Bühne Kostüme von Marie Antoinette bis The Great Gatsby sahen. Wir diskutieren, wie Designer wie Olivier Rousteing von Balmain ihre Mode in das Gesamtkonzept eingebracht haben – und wo es vielleicht weniger geglückt ist. Freu dich auf einen unterhaltsamen und meinungsstarken Talk voller Hintergrundinformationen, Modeleidenschaft und echter Begeisterung für eines der wichtigsten Fashion Events des Jahres. Alle besprochenen Looks, findest du natürlich wie immer auf unseren Social-Media-Kanälen bei Instagram und TikTok unter @lostonplanetfashion. Und ab sofort auch unter www.lostonplanetfashion.de. Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

Idag ska vi bege oss in i en värld av läder, latex och piskor. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Eller, rättare sagt – vi ska ta en titt på hur modet samspelar med den subkultur i vilken den typen av fetischer förekommer, BDSM. Inte minst tack vare just mode. Modeskapare som Thierry Mugler, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Versace, Helmut Lang, Alexander McQueen och – förstås – Vivienne Westwood är bara några som har inspirerats av själva stilen, och på så sätt bidragit till att göra den mer mainstream. På årets upplaga av filmfestivalen i Cannes höjdes till exempel ett och annat ögonbryn längs röda mattan när Alexander Skarsgård stövlade in i skjorta, kostym, slips – och lårhöga läderboots. Stövlarna (som även hade vissa likheter med de vadarstövlar som hobbyfiskare bär) kom från Saint Laurent. Att stövlarna var en direkt blinkning till den film han var där att göra PR för, ”Pillion”, var det ingen tvekan om. Skribenten, författaren och fetischisten Anastasiia Fedorova recenserar Skarsgårds BDSM-stil. Det finns de som menar att John Sutcliffe borde vara en minst lika berömd modeskapare som Mary Quant. För även han förändrade modet under 1960-talet i London. Hör om den bortglömda läder och latex-pionjären. När Amanda Romares självbiografiska bok, ”Halva Malmö består av killar som dumpat mig”, nyligen kom ut som tv-serie på Netflix, så syntes Amanda Romare, med sitt entourage, på bilder från premiärfesten hållandes i en liten ridpiska. Hör den verkliga berättelsen om hur det kom sig att piskan blev hennes favoritmetod för att ragga killar.

What happens when you follow your instincts all the way from a boat-building town in New England to Alexander McQueen's studio, through the forests of Oregon, to a sunlit gallery in LA? This week, Ceri is joined by the remarkable Ryan Noon—creative director, curator, gallerist, and founder of NOON Projects. His journey weaves together fashion, art, and everyday alchemy that turns felt experience into form. They talk about sewing shells onto garments in a childhood basement, launching a label at fifteen, and building Nike's Blue Ribbon Studio from scratch—a space that redefined how over 1,200 creatives found their flow. Ryan doesn't protect his creativity—he gives it away, trusting that the more he pours into others, the more returns through collaboration and care. They explore burnout, beauty, the lure of shoulds and what happens when you build a garden by the sea instead of chasing the next launch. This is for anyone who's ever tried to bottle the magic before it vanished—or better yet, learned to stay still and let it bloom. KEY TAKEAWAYS While some guard their creativity like a secret recipe, Ryan pours his out, he doesn´t hoard. Generosity isn't weakness—it's a creative strategy. But you can´t be so generous that you don´t look after your wellbeing too. Ryan curates atmosphere as much as art—inviting guests to experience his multisensory gallery like a sauna, where scent, texture, and care guide them slowly into creativity. The best kind of art world is a place where the alchemy is less about gold and more about grounding and discovery, where artists are encouraged to stop, stretch and stay curious together. BEST MOMENTS “I think of creativity as like an endless spring. I purposely try to give as much away, to make room for new.” “Ryan measures success by whether an artist or a student felt seen, whether the gallery smelt right, whether the artist grew. That kind of bar setting isn't glamorous, but it's holy.” “Having a quarter acre garden of vegetables was really like my pivotal shift to be able to listen to myself and work from a different source.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://noon-projects.com/About PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Jonathan Anderson was appointed as creative director of the French fashion house Dior in March 2025, becoming one of the world's most influential designers. As creative director of the luxury label Loewe for 11 years from 2013, he led a rebranding of the Spanish company, and was hailed a critical and commercial success. He's also run his own label JW Anderson since 2008, and launched collaborative lines with high street brands including Top Shop and Uniqlo. The recipient of many accolades since winning the Emerging Talent prize at the British Fashion Awards in 2012, he was named Designer Of The Year in 2023 and 2024. Jonathan Anderson tells John Wilson about his rural upbringing in Northern Ireland at the height of The Troubles, and the influence of his father, the former Ireland rugby team captain Willie Anderson. He recalls a childhood visit to a textiles factory run by his maternal grandfather that sparked a fascination for printed fabrics. Working as a shop window designer for the luxury label Prada led him to pursue ambitions to become a fashion designer, encouraged by Prada stylist Manuela Pavesi. Jonathan Anderson also reflects on the importance of creative freedom in his industry, claiming that the radical era of fashion, epitomised by designers such as Alexander McQueen and John Galliano, has been replaced by a fear of pushing boundaries due to the risk of social media backlash.Producer: Edwina Pitman

Secret filming by the BBC's Panorama programme last night revealed evidence of racism, misogyny and officers revelling in the use of force at one of London's busiest police stations. Panorama's evidence suggests that a toxic culture still exists inside the Met and that racist and misogynistic attitudes haven't been eliminated but have been driven underground. Anita Rani speaks to Matt Jukes, Deputy Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police.The secrets we keep reflect the conventions, taboos and laws of the outside world, and women have traditionally had the bigger burden of secrets, often unable to reveal things that could get them or others judged, in society or by law. Anita talks to Juliet Nicolson about her new book The Book of Revelations which explores secrets through social history, her own family and many case studies she spoke to. The conservationist and primatologist Dame Jane Goodall died yesterday, aged 91. According to the Jane Goodall Institute, she died of natural causes in California where she was staying as part of a speaking tour in the US. There has been tributes from around the world. Joining me Anita to remember this ground-breaking conservationist who revolutionised the study of great apes is wildlife biologist, National Geographic Explorer and President of the Wildlife Trust, Liz Bonnin, and Jillian Miller who is the director of the Gorilla Organisation who work to save gorillas from extinction.From gowns buried underground to transforming fabrics with melted bandages, fashion has a history of exploring the aesthetics of dirt and decay. A new exhibition at the Barbican, Dirty Looks, explores 50 years of designers from Vivienne Westwood to Alexander McQueen, who used dirt and distress to make statements about luxury, beauty, class and the environment. The exhibition also looks at waste as fashion is now one of the most polluting industries in the world. Anita is joined by the exhibition's curator, Karen Van Godtsenhoven, and artist and designer, Michaela Stark, whose work challenges ideas of imperfection.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rebecca Myatt

fWotD Episode 3065: Joan (collection) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 25 September 2025, is Joan (collection).Joan (Autumn/Winter 1998) was the twelfth collection by British fashion designer Alexander McQueen for his eponymous fashion house. Continuing McQueen's dual fascination with religion and violence, it was inspired by imagery of persecution, most significantly the 1431 martyrdom of French Catholic saint Joan of Arc, who was burned at the stake. The collection's palette was mainly red, black, and silver; colours which evoked notions of warfare, death, blood, and flames. Many looks referenced ecclesiastical garments and medieval armour, including several items that mimicked chainmail and one ensemble that had actual silver-plated armour pieces. The runway show was staged on 25 February 1998 at Gatliff Road Warehouse in London. McQueen caused an upset by banning several tabloid journalists, one of whom responded with an angry editorial. Production was handled by McQueen's usual creative team. The set design for Joan was sparse and industrial: a dark room lit by metal lamps suspended over the runway. The 100-foot (30 m) runway was covered in black ashes, and models entered through a black backdrop backlit in red. Ninety-one looks were presented; primarily womenswear with some menswear. The show concluded with model Svetlana wearing a red beaded dress which covered her face, swaying in a circle of flames.Critical response to the clothing and the runway show for Joan was positive, and it is regarded as one of McQueen's most memorable shows. Academic analysis has focused on interpretation of the styling, the finale, and the meaning of several garments printed with a photograph of children. Several items from Joan have appeared in museum exhibitions, including Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty and Lee Alexander McQueen: Mind, Mythos, Muse.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:10 UTC on Thursday, 25 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Joan (collection) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Ayanda.

In 2020, he joined Holt Renfrew at the height of the pandemic, taking on the challenge of steering Canada's most iconic luxury retailer through one of the most disruptive times in modern retail history.He offers a rich perspective on what makes Holt Renfrew remarkable—its deep Canadian heritage dating back to 1837, its ability to evolve with consumer tastes, and its strong relationships with global brands, employees, and customers. Sebastian discusses how Holt Renfrew balances being both a branded house and a house of brands, creating a unique identity in a highly competitive market.The conversation delves into the diversity of Canadian consumers, from the European-influenced Montreal shopper to Vancouver's strong Asian luxury demand, and how these cultural differences shape merchandising and strategy. Sebastian highlights the challenges of Canada's vast geography, the pressures of competing with U.S. retailers, and the importance of personalization and CRM in strengthening customer relationships.AI also takes center stage as Sebastian explains how technology is reshaping discovery, service, and operations. From empowering associates with smarter tools to anticipating customer needs, he shares how Holt Renfrew is integrating AI into its strategy while staying focused on human connection at the store level.Finally, Sebastian reflects on leadership—what it means to empower teams, why humility and enabling others is central to his philosophy, and why leadership is always more about others than yourself. As he prepares to move back to Europe, Sebastian leaves listeners with inspiring lessons on adaptability, vision, and building a retail brand that can thrive for nearly two centuries.

fWotD Episode 3008: Scanners (collection) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 30 July 2025, is Scanners (collection).Scanners (Autumn/Winter 2003) was the twenty-second collection by British fashion designer Alexander McQueen for his eponymous fashion house. The collection is based on the idea of exiles travelling eastward through northern Eurasia: Siberia, Tibet, and finally Japan. The designs borrow heavily from the traditional clothing and art of those areas, and reflect an overall aesthetic of luxury, with voluminous silhouettes and rich materials. Cultural motifs include heavy embroidery, traditional patterns, and kimono-like shapes. The runway show was staged on 8 March 2003 at the Grande halle de la Villette in Paris, with production by McQueen's usual creative team. The set was made to look like a desolate tundra with rocks and snow. A clear plastic wind tunnel was suspended over the runway on industrial scaffolding for some models to walk through. Fifty-nine looks were presented in roughly three stages, representing the journey through each of Siberia, Tibet, and Japan. The show ended with a model struggling through the wind tunnel in an enormous kimono.Critical reception was mostly positive and sales were reportedly strong. Academic analysis has considered whether McQueen was engaging in cultural appropriation of Asian culture. Items from Scanners have appeared in exhibitions like the retrospective Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:30 UTC on Wednesday, 30 July 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Scanners (collection) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Amy.

Sarah Burton is one of the fashion industry's most beloved figures and one of the few women creative directors at the helm of a legacy maison. When she was named to the top job at Givenchy, almost a year to the day after she had announced she was stepping down from her post at Alexander McQueen, where she had spent two decades, the excitement was palpable. Her debut collection for the French label, in March of this year, was a resounding success—the proof? Anne Hathaway wears it exclusively in her August Vogue cover story.Burton joined Nicole Phelps from her home in London to talk about her new gig, the impact of social media on fashion, and what she loves most about her job.Plus, Chioma and Chloe talk about Doechii's new British Vogue cover, perverted prep at Michael Rider's Celine debut, and Wimbledon couples style.

fWotD Episode 2957: Illusion of Kate Moss Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 9 June 2025, is Illusion of Kate Moss.The illusion of Kate Moss is an art piece first shown at the conclusion of the Alexander McQueen runway show The Widows of Culloden (Autumn/Winter 2006). It consists of a short film of English model Kate Moss dancing slowly while wearing a long, billowing gown of white chiffon, projected life-size within a glass pyramid in the centre of the show's catwalk. Although sometimes referred to as a hologram, the illusion was made using a 19th-century theatre technique called Pepper's ghost.McQueen conceived the illusion as a gesture of support for Moss; she was a close friend of his and was embroiled in a drug-related scandal at the time of the Widows show. It is regarded by many critics as the highlight of the Widows runway show, and it has been the subject of a great deal of academic analysis, particularly as a wedding dress and as a memento mori. The illusion appeared in both versions of Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty, a retrospective exhibition of McQueen's designs.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:43 UTC on Monday, 9 June 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Illusion of Kate Moss on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Geraint.

So many more shows, including the collections of Alexander McQueen, Thierry Mugler, and Karl Lagerfeld. There is a Princess Diana moment, and a few international and political drops too, including Dunne's rapprochement with Adnan Khashoggi and the brewing Clinton scandal in Washington D.C., which is beginning at the time to get some press.

Kasia Bromley's career started at Alexander McQueen in haute couture after she came over from Poland to study fashion in Edinburgh. Soon after her graduation, she started designing clothing, but it wasn't until 2016 that the brand we know today as ACAI officially launched. Kasia and her husband, Joe, co-founded the brand when they were expecting their first child. Kasia had previously identified a gap in the market for outdoor clothes for women that allowed them to confidently explore the outdoors- something she'd really wanted as she always had an affinity with spending time in nature and knew of the positive impact this could have. Utilising her fashion background and her extensive knowledge of technical fabrics, ACAI was born, but it took a long time to build it to the brand that's so well known and loved today. At one point, financial issues led to the couple having to move out of the family home and live apart in different countries to make ends meet, but this only served as fuel for Kasia and ACAI. A change in strategy saw ACAI launch online in 2017 and the business has grown at an incredible rate since then. I was delighted to speak to Kasia for my latest book, You've Got This, and it's a joy to share this interview with you here today. Don't forget, you can grab your copy of You've Got This through Amazon, Bloomsbury direct and all good bookshops.

fWotD Episode 2894: What a Merry-Go-Round Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 7 April 2025 is What a Merry-Go-Round.What a Merry-Go-Round is the eighteenth collection by British fashion designer Alexander McQueen, made for the Autumn/Winter 2001 season of his fashion house Alexander McQueen. The collection drew on imagery of clowns and carnivals, inspired by McQueen's feelings about childhood and his experiences in the fashion industry. The designs were influenced by military chic, cinema such as Nosferatu (1922) and Cabaret (1972), 1920s flapper fashion, and the French Revolution. The palette comprised dark colours complemented with neutrals and muted greens. The show marked the first appearance of the skull motif that became a signature of the brand.The collection's runway show was staged on 21 February 2001 at the Gatliff Road Warehouse in London, as part of London Fashion Week. It was McQueen's final show in London; all his future collections were presented in Paris. Sixty-two looks were presented in the main runway show, with at least six more in the finale. The show was staged in a dark room with a carousel at the centre. During the finale, the lights came up to reveal piles of discarded childhood bric-à-brac at the rear of the stage, while models dressed as evil clowns cavorted around the stage, posing in their eveningwear.Critical response to the collection was generally positive, and it has attracted some academic analysis for the theme and messaging. Like McQueen's previous show Voss (Spring/Summer 2001), Merry-Go-Round served as a critique of the fashion industry, which he sometimes described as toxic and suffocating. It contained elements that several authors have taken as references to French luxury goods conglomerate LVMH and its management, with whom McQueen had a turbulent relationship. Ensembles from Merry-Go-Round have appeared in exhibitions such as the McQueen retrospective Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:13 UTC on Monday, 7 April 2025.For the full current version of the article, see What a Merry-Go-Round on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Kajal.

“Nothing is certain.  You can go about life and be afraid of everything and never do anything and wonder what would happen or you can just leap and take the chance.” – Kasey KitchenKasey Kitchen started out as a dancer, following her passion to New York City where she would perform in numerous Broadway shows. Then, shifting to acting, she headed west to Los Angeles and would land roles in televisions shows like theiconic daytime soap General Hospital. Now, she's landed the starring role in her own company as CEO of Marque PR. She took a leap of faith and founded the company in the pandemic and has since helped shape the careers of numerous celebrity and lifestyle clients.  A super savvy businesswoman, she started with an office in Los Angeles, branched out to New York, and is just getting ready to open a brand-new office in Atlanta. On this episode, Kasey talks about her journey and starting her own business, dives into the duties involved with a career in public relations, and discusses the importance of her daily meditation and moments of gratitude.  She also shares her favorite travel spot, fashion designer (Alexander McQueen all the way), love of dogs, and why she was recruited by the FBI!

In this episode of Beyond the Tech, Bryan and Alex sit down with Valeria Breda, CIO of Versace, to explore her inspiring journey through the world of luxury fashion and technology. Valeria shares how her early days at Louis Vuitton, followed by senior roles at Kering (including Stella McCartney and Alexander McQueen), shaped her approach to leadership, innovation, and resilience in a dynamic industry. Valeria opens up about the unique challenges of balancing brand autonomy with group-level strategy, while also reflecting on the deep passion embedded in Versace's culture, the importance of breaking down silos, and what it means to lead with both authority and influence in a heritage brand undergoing transformation. The conversation explores the evolving role of technology as an enabler rather than a full-blooded disruptor, with Valeria speaking candidly about Versace's enthusiastic embrace of AI and other digital innovations. She is clear, however, that while technology is playing a growing role in streamlining operations and driving innovation, it will not compromise or intrude upon the brand's creative and design processes. Finally, she shares her personal leadership journey as a woman in tech, offering honest reflections and valuable advice for emerging female leaders and detailing how she built resilience and influence in a traditionally male-dominated industry.Listeners will hear honest reflections on imposter syndrome, digital transformation, the convergence of retail and e-commerce, and what it really takes to lead change in a high-pressure, highly creative environment. Whether you're in fashion, tech, or leadership, this episode is packed with insights, strategy, and inspiration you won't want to miss.

Colonel Kate was back on parade yesterday, raising a half-pint of Guinness to celebrate St Patrick's Day with the Irish Guards. The Princess of Wales, looking absolutely gorgeous in green Alexander McQueen, made her triumphant return to the annual celebration after missing last year due to her cancer treatment.The Princess, ever generous, even put money behind the bar for the troops, telling them: "It's the least I can do." Now that's royal class! The 43-year-old beamed as she inspected the regiment, pinned traditional shamrocks beneath her gold Cartier brooch, and even presented one to Turlough Mor, the Irish wolfhound mascot who serves as the regiment's most adorable soldier.During candid chats with the guardsmen, Kate revealed she's keen to take her children Down Under. "George finds it fascinating that he has been to Australia and New Zealand," she told an Australian reservist. "I would like to go back there with them now." Little Prince George, now 11, was just nine months old during his parents' 2014 tour. While no joint trips have been announced yet, we're all hoping to see the Wales family on a royal tour soon.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Apologies for the delay, Chelsea has had yet another rough week, but we are back to discuss Hollywood's biggest night and all of the best Karla Sofía Gascón jokes. Topics discussed include the deeply healing The Color Purple reunion, Anora's shocking sweep, Demi Moore's life-imitating-art moment, the sensational Wizard of Oz tribute, David Lynch erasure, and Adrian Brody's deeply annoying acceptance speech.  P.S. this episode was recorded before we knew the deeply f**ked up and unbelievably tragic details of Gene Hackman's death. R.I.P. King. Let's watch The Birdcage in his honor

Visuals: https://getbehindthebillboard.com/episode-85-felipe-serradourada-guimaraesEpisode #85 features Felipe Serradourada Guimaraes, the recently appointed ECD at BBH. It was a real pleasure talking with Felipe, who we think is the only creative ever to go from being on placement at BBH, to being the ECD at BBH. That is some achievement, but no surprise considering his portfolio of work. During his 14 years with the Black Sheep, Felipe has been behind some incredible campaigns and yet feels like he's only getting started.We discussed Tesco's and discovered the stories behind the recent ‘Bags' campaign. We also had another chat on ‘Icons', which was fascinating. Hearing about the craft that went into both campaigns a real lesson and reminder in how to get to great work. And making it happen.We also covered Burger King and three fantastic campaigns - Grill Lines, National Burger Day and Bundles of Joy. Some great insights into how the work came about, especially the perseverance and passion to get Bundles of Joy made.Then there were the Paddy Power ‘A shirt is not just for Christmas' billboards, posted next to the grounds of various Premier League teams in suitably un-PC PaddyPower fashion. And we even had time to find out how an Alexander McQueen dress inspired the campaign for F+F Homeware.Felipe thank you so much for being such a charming and gracious guest. We loved it and v much look forward to you coming back with more stories.This was also the first episode in our new streamlined approach, where we get in and out within the hour. It feels more focussed that way, but apologies if any listeners miss Hugh droning on ;-)

On Friday, actress and model Hunter Schafer posted an eight-and-a-half minute video on TikTok in which she revealed that the replacement passport she had just received had the gender marker changed from female to male.Ms. Schafer is a trans woman, widely beloved among Gen-Z for her acting—particularly her performance in “Euphoria”—and broadly considered one of the most beautiful women in the world. Over the years, she's modeled for Prada, Vera Wang, Marc Jacobs, Alexander McQueen, and many other houses. She came out as a teen girl and has renewed previously with the correct gender marker, with no issues. That means the State Department is either intentionally flagging all American passports with record of a gender marker change and/or they're intentionally cross-referencing passports with birth certificates, some of which are issued by states that ban gender marker changes.Not to mention: the ridiculous complexity for intersex Americans.Florida, Kansas, Montana, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas all prohibit gender marker amendments on birth certificates. Their number will very likely grow by the end of this year. Last week, the Arizona House approved a bill banning residents from amending their birth certificates to reflect their authentic gender identity.I'm worried for all the obvious reasons: the government tracking, the likely surveillance of trans people, the grave risk of an incorrect, “outed” passport for any trans person who needs to travel internationally, the potential for confusion and obstruction over government documents for things like security clearances, etc.That same day, the Bureau of Prisons announced that trans people incarcerated in federal prisons would be moved to facilities that align with their sex assigned at birth, as early as next week. There are nearly 2,300 trans people incarcerated in federal prisons at the moment.Trans women transferred to men's prisons will obviously be at substantially greater risk of violence.The same day—yes, all on Friday—Iowa Republicans announced a bill that, if successful, would remove ‘gender identity' as a protected class in the Iowa Civil Rights Act, thus eliminating anti-discrimination protections for all transgender Iowans. It would make Iowa the first state to remove a protected class from civil rights law.Meanwhile, at the White House—yes, same exact day—Trump was speaking to a large, bipartisan group of governors and went after Maine Gov. Janet Mills from behind his podium.“Is Maine Here? The governor of Maine?”“Yeah, I'm here,” she said from her seat in the audience.“Are you not going to comply with that?” Trump demanded of her, referencing the executive order he signed on Feb. 5th that bans trans girls and young women from competing on girls' and women's sports teams.“I'm complying with the state and federal laws,” she responded.“We are the federal law,” snapped Trump. “You better do it… You better comply , you better comply, because otherwise you're not getting any federal funding.”“See you in court,” she retorted from her seat.“Good,” said Trump. “I'll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a real easy one, and enjoy your life after governor, because I don't think you'll be in elected politics.”It was yet another moment Trump attempted to intimidate elected officials across the political spectrum over trans issues. On Saturday, Trump spoke to the 2025 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), where he took a victory lap for ending “transgender insanity.”“It's all out now — critical race theory and transgender insanity. It's all gone from our schools and from our military and I believe it's gone, too… I believe that it's all gone.”Today, Bill Maher appeared on the “Pod Saves America” podcast and argued with co-host Jon Lovett about trans issues, urging him that Democrats would “lose every election” if they don't give up more on trans equality.Side note here: anti-trans punditry that claims to be offering the “reasonable middle” argument always seems to intensely focus on what they don't want. There is never a good faith framing of what they believe should be legal. There are reasons for that: either they don't actually believe in minimum rights for trans people or they fear being targeted by extremists for offering support for even a modicum of trans equality.The relentless pace of anti-trans actions and rhetoric have become overwhelming.That's how I'm doing.Charlotte's Web Thoughts is a reader-supported publication.

Nyligen var det 15 år sedan modeskaparen Alexander McQueen gick bort. Var han möjligtvis en av modevärldens sista kreatörer som tilläts vara konstnär? Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ”Om designers vill bli konstnärer borde de måla eller skulptera. Idag ska modeskapare designa kläder eller lädervaror skapade för att kunna säljas i stora mängder.” Det menade i alla fall Antoine Arnault, den äldsta sonen i Arnault-familjen, i en intervju. I veckans Samtal med Stil diskuterar Susanne Ljung och Samanda Ekman om en talang som Alexander McQueen hade hittat en plattform i dagens modeklimat.

She remembers two mentors who encouraged her to perform at at young age; school music teacher Helen Rycroft, and Rae McKen who ran a local drama club. Cynthia recalls winning a place at the prestigious drama school RADA, and returning to become Vice President of the institution last year.

Cynthia also chooses the 2015 Alexander McQueen exhibition Savage Beauty at the V&A as a inspiring creative moment, and discusses her love of glamorous fashion.Producer: Edwina Pitman

Elegancia depurada, encanto que fascina, mágico hechizo para denominar esa cualidad llamada glamour que a algunos adorna y a otros se niega Originalmente del escocés “grammar”, de los practicantes del ocultismo y las artes mágicas, pero la moda parece haber acaparado. ¿Es cuestión de dinero? ¿Exclusividad? ¿Es Audrey Hepburn la que aporta el glamour a Givenchy en “Desayuno con Diamantes" o a la inversa? ¿Bowie o Astaire? ¿Alexander McQueen o Balenciaga? ¿“Smoking o chandal? ¿Es el glamour cosa del pasado? Astaire, Cary Grant, Marlene Dietrich, Ferry , Grace Jones o yo mismo en la pasarela y que el glamour nos sea propicio.

Those are the driverless cars that originated in San Francisco. As I realized this meant that Uber and Lyft drivers could eventually get replaced by robocars, it made me wonder:What other jobs are at risk of being replaced by robots or CGI?Then the fear donned on me: influencers. We could potentially see a world in the next 10-15 years where our comfort creators are not actual humans but rather made up of Sim-like avatars. These “generated influencers”, as I am calling it, have no racist Tweets to be unearthed, they won't call out for sick days or face creative burn out. But most importantly, they won't ask for any money.We already saw the rise of CGI-creators the last 10-years with influencers like Lil Miquela growing to 2.5 million followers on IG.

JEAN CAMPBELL  is a supermodel who from the outside looks to be living a fairy tale life. Stunningly beautiful, she has modeled on the international stage for brands including Alexander McQueen, Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton and Burberry. Of course, nothing is ever so simple (especially in fairy tales). After experiencing a traumatic injury at a young age, Jean had to learn how to live with chronic pain. She underwent multiple surgeries, and confronted despair induced by the extreme physical and emotional challenges she faced.  Shadowland is our This Jungian Life forum for exploring the lives of people who exist in the hidden places of our culture. Life with chronic pain is one of those hidden places: for many it is characterized by loneliness and fear. At home and at work, people with chronic pain conditions are often asked to mask the reality of what they're experiencing.  In this episode, Lisa and Deb explore the gulf Jean experienced between persona and shadow. In private, Jean searched for ways to cope with physical pain and suffering, whilst in public she built a successful career based on her exceptional physical beauty.  According to Jean, embracing and befriending pain has been key in her path to healing. This is explored through a discussion of A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin, in which the protagonist, Ged, must confront and befriend his shadow:  “Only in silence the word, only in dark the light, only in dying life: bright the hawk's flight on the empty sky” (A Wizard of Earthsea).
