It's not easy to maintain relevance in an industry that always seeks the next shiny thing, but Cynthia Rowley has enviable longevity.

World-renowned fashion designer Prabal Gurung grew up in a turbulent household, with an abusive father at home and bullies at school who teased him for being too feminine. It was only when he moved to New York City to work with designers like Donna Karan and Cynthia Rowley that Prabal began to embrace the things that made him different. His new memoir, “Walk Like a Girl,” is a tribute to the women who made him the fashion designer he is today, from Anna Wintour, who championed his work, to longtime clients like Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, Kamala Harris and Kate Middleton.

Ali Mejia is the visionary and cofounder of elevated sleepwear brand Eberjey. Although she'd always had a soft spot for pajamas (getting ready for bed was a self-care ritual in her home growing up), Mejia began her career on Wall Street. After graduating from Princeton, she followed many of her peers to New York City and got a job as a financial analyst. When her bank unexpectedly closed, she was laid off and left to confront the nagging feeling that she should be exploring her creativity. She used her severance package to fund a trip to Florence, Italy, and being immersed in the arts and culture inspired her to make a change in her career. Upon returning home, she took one more short-lived finance job and then landed a fashion internship at Cynthia Rowley that energized her. She moved back home to Miami and took a direct marketing job to pay the bills while quietly working with a local patternmaker and learning how to design sleepwear. Once she had designed a few prototypes, she told her coworker at the direct marketing company about her business idea. This coworker, Mariela Rovito, became Mejia's cofounder in Eberjey. In 1996, they left their day jobs, put $10,000 each into this new venture, and set off on a brand-building journey with no business plan. Today, almost three decades later, Eberjey remains a leading international sleepwear brand with five brick-and-mortar shops and products sold in over 500 retailers, from Neiman Marcus to Nordstrom.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Fashion besties-it's Friyyaayy!  This week, Holly dives headfirst into the hottest Spring 2025 trends you need to know. Whether you're a trend enthusiast or just trying to stay relevant, this episode is packed with style tips, insider knowledge, and plenty of laughs.   It's your RIGHT to look fabulous for the upcoming season!   LISTEN NOW!  And follow along on this week's Pinterest Board!   What You'll Learn in This Episode:    1. Slim Sneakers & Sporty Chic: Sneakers continue their reign, but this year it's all about slim silhouettes. Think lightweight styles like Pumas, Adidas, and boxing-inspired high-tops. Pair them with flowy skirts or romantic dresses for a modern twist. Sporty chic also takes center stage with bold motorsport-inspired graphics, silk anoraks, and track jackets. Sporty Spics is BACK.   Don't forget to keep an eye on collections from LVMH brands influenced by the Paris Olympics for high-fashion takes on this trend. Professional athletes are also in the fashion hot seat as brands are turning to them for strong brand influence.   2. Animal Prints & Stripes: (never gets old) Animal prints, including zebra, tiger, and snake patterns, are timeless yet reinvigorated for Spring 2025. Any of these prints as an accessory, such as a leopard-print shoe or scarf can instantly elevate your outfit and take it to the next level. Stripes are equally versatile, with bold options layered in contrasting widths and colors. Days of the boring horizontal striped t-shirt have new life again with this trend. Try layering different types of stripes for an unexpected play-on pattern. Designers like Proenza Schouler and Dior showcase this preppy-meets-edgy vibe beautifully.   3. Plaid and Preppy: Plaid remains a key player in the preppy fashion resurgence, but Holly's rule is clear: less is more. Opt for plaid as an accent rather than the focal point—think flowy skirts, tailored layers, or abstract plaid dresses as seen in Ralph Lauren's recent runway show.   Pair plaid with skirts, jackets, loafers, or oxford shoes to nail the preppy look. Men's neckties on women are making a huge comeback as well. When in doubt, try a plaid bag or scarf to add some color to your look. Think of it as a neutral that can go with anything.    4. Fringe & Ruffles: Fringe isn't just for country looks anymore. From leather jackets to car-wash-inspired fringe dresses (like Holly's burgundy stunner from Toccin), this trend adds drama to any outfit. Ruffles are another standout, seen in Zimmerman and Cynthia Rowley collections.   Be mindful of fit—ruffles can either highlight or overwhelm, depending on placement. For a twist, try an asymmetrical version- this usually compliments the body to draw your eye down to create a longer, leaner look.   5. The Jeans Conundrum: Baggy jeans, dad jeans, and slim-straight styles are all the rage, with brands like Proenza Schouler and Pistola Jeans leading the charge. Acid washes, barrel silhouettes, and wide-leg fits offer plenty of options for every aesthetic. Let us help you navigate the confusion and choose the perfect pair for your shape and style.   6. Bubble Silhouettes: This playful, voluminous shape makes a comeback in both sophisticated and casual designs. From Jonathan Simkhai's elegant bubble dresses to Reformation's more accessible bubble miniskirts, this trend is back from OVER 30 years ago and is super popular right now.   7. Accessories Galore: Welcome to the era of "excessive accessorization"! Glamour Magazine's term for this trend encapsulates stacked necklaces, statement earrings (check out brands like Lelet NY), and bold scarves. Bags also get a refresh—think oversized totes, sleek daytime bags, and timeless clutches.   Hot Tip: Remember, accessories are the key to taking your outfit to the next level.   Whether you're a minimalist looking for key pieces or a maximalist ready to go all out, Holly has all the styling tips and tricks to make these trends work for you.   Follow Holly on Social Media: • Instagram: @HollyKatzStyling • Podcast IG: @FashionCrimesPodcast • Pinterest: Holly Katz Styling • LinkedIn: Holly Katz Style • YouTube: Fashion Crimes Podcast   Your Spring Style Starts Here: We hope you are as inspired by these trends as we are.  Don't be afraid to mix and match pieces and take a risk with your personal style!

Beth Hutchens is the founder and creative director of the luxury jewelry company Foundrae. Beth started her career working in fashion, first as a trim buyer, and then assistant designer at the womenswear brand Cynthia Rowley. There, she met Rebecca Taylor, and the two bonded quickly over their shared tastes and dream of working in fashion. At age 23, Beth took the leap with Rebecca and co-founded the womenswear line Rebecca Taylor. Beth took on the CEO role, and over the next 18 years guided the company through massive growth, e-commerce, retail expansion, and eventually, acquisition. By 2014, she knew she wanted to do something new, so she stepped down from Rebecca Taylor and quickly launched her jewelry brand, Foundrae (”Rae” being in reference to her beloved grandmother). The new project allowed her to return to her designer roots, creating whimsical, sturdy, gorgeous pieces that draw the eye and the heart. The brand has become a favorite of celebrities like Emily Ratajkowski, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Dua Lipa. Foundrae now has multiple stores across the U.S., with three more to come later this year in New York, Los Angeles, and Miami.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, Jason is joined by Bachelor Nation alum turned fashion designer, home chef and content creator, Kit Keenan! Many know Kit from her time on Matt James' season of The Bachelor, but what you may not know is that Kit is no stranger to the spotlight before going on the show, she was raised in New York City by her famous fashion designer mother, Cynthia Rowley. Growing up watching her mother succeed in the fashion industry gave her access and perspective on the fashion industry that many individuals would never have until much later in their careers. Now a few years later in her career, Kit has branded herself as Gen Z's answer to Martha Stewart by leveraging her knowledge of the fashion industry and adding a twist of her love of cooking. She has been entertaining her nearly 600k followers on Instagram and TikTok with fashion-focused content and hosting a social media cooking series “What's Kit Cooking”.  Kit gives insight to how she deals with imposter syndrome, how her perspective changed on the word influencer, what her mom thought about her going on The Bachelor, how she feels being labeled as a nepo baby, how to get out of the shadow of someone else, her relationship with money, how she ended up in a campaign with Hailey Bieber's company, and what she learned from launching her own clothing line. Kit also reveals what she thinks she spends too much money on, how she would define her brand, behind the scenes of influencer collaborations, how she plans from a financial standpoint, how finding her niche helped her grow exponentially, where fashion trends are at today, and what the best deal she has done is. What are her claims to fame in the Bachelor franchise? Would she ever go back on reality TV? What social media platform does she make more on?  Kit reveals all that and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!  Host: Jason Tartick Co-Host: David Arduin Audio: John Gurney Guest: Kit Keenan Stay connected with the Trading Secrets Podcast!  Instagram: @tradingsecretspodcast  Youtube: Trading Secrets Facebook: Join the Group All Access: Free 30-Day Trial  Deals!

"We're meant to be the first stop in the journey and also to help empower people to have better, healthier relationships with their physicians." Listen in to get Egan's best advice on how to achieve open, reciprocal communication with your doctor, and learn the exact steps she made to transition her career through multiple reinventions.   Allie Egan is the Founder and CEO of Veracity Selfcare, a next-generation beauty and wellness brand empowering women to understand the connection between their skin and their broader health through at-home testing and a holistic, data-driven approach to skincare.

Prior to founding Veracity, Allie was the CEO of the women's fashion brand, Cynthia Rowley where she led the transformation to direct-to-consumer and more than doubled the business in two years. She has extensive experience in the beauty industry through her time at some of Estee Lauder's best brands, including Origins, Clinique, and La Mer.

A successful podcast entrepreneur, as well as the founder and CEO of Ginni Media — a podcast strategy and creation company that serves both big-ticket clients and fledgling entrepreneurs with quality audio strategy, monetization, community building, and production tips — Ginni Saraswati, is the audio authority. After all, Saraswati, who has hosted a few morning radio shows, has embraced audio since….what? Radio?! Saraswati shares her journey from Sri Lanka to Australia to the U.S. and details her experiences in radio and podcasting. She also discusses the challenges she faced with racial intolerance and what it was like to come out as queer to her traditional family. Not for nothing, but Saraswati is keen on all creators staying true to their values — and preaches the power of authenticity in business. With characteristic authenticity, she recalls the business idea that failed and how she learned invaluable lessons from her mistakes as an entrepreneur. Listen to Saraswati delve into gender imbalance in podcasting as she speaks about being a woman in a male-dominated industry — and stick around for her tips for women looking to pursue their business dreams, on this episode of SheVentures Podcast. Highlights: Saraswati talks about radio and podcasting, her passions for more than a decade, producing award-winning content focused on pop culture, music, entertainment, and the LGBTQ+ community. What it was like to interview celebrities like Paula Abdul and be the host of two-morning radio shows in Melbourne, Australia As a Sri Lankan immigrant to Australia, Saraswati speaks about her cultural acclimation.  Entrepreneurship involves personal and professional transformations, including overcoming fear, reckoning with imposter syndrome, and learning to delegate tasks. Saraswati recalls coming out — and how she found support in the LGBTQ+ community. Facing discrimination and stigma, Saraswati found solace in the community and used her platform to amplify voices. Saraswati discusses the gender imbalance in podcasting and content creation and attributes it partly to obstacles and judgment women face. Representation is crucial in podcasting, and Saraswati's journey shows how important it is to amplify diverse voices. A failed event business, Blink, taught Saraswati that having a greater purpose is essential for success. She started Ginni Media as a side hustle and won five clients before quitting her day job. Today, her client roster includes Cynthia Rowley, Allure, Siemens, and many entrepreneurs. Saraswati faced numerous challenges in her entrepreneurial journey, including losing all her money. Ginni Media grows through referral clients, prioritizing quality over quick growth. Reviewing how podcasts can be monetized — and how to decide what is right for you Saraswati encourages people to reach out to her on Instagram at @ginnimedia or @theginnishow

I wanted to make my own money. I wanted to have that independence [from very early on].” — Allie Egan [0:07:03]“That [childhood health scare] experience has taught me how so many people think about their health. Instead of being proactive and [thinking] ‘What could be going on in my body? How can I make it better?', how they think about optimal health is clouded in fear.” — Allie Egan [0:11:20]“I feel fortunate that I ended up getting interviews at [L Catterton], which is 100% exclusively focused on consumer retail. I didn't know if I'd love [investment banking], but what I ended up loving was the consumer retail world.” — Allie Egan [0:15:09]“Like a lot of folks, I had been on this path of ‘This is the paved path. Keep going that way.' [I liked what I was doing], but I really started to soul search and think about: what could I be uniquely good at? What could I bring to the table?” — Allie Egan [0:17:53]“Part of what you're doing in building a company is being the conductor of all these things, whether it's ideas, expertise, products, or people.” — Allie Egan [0:18:30]“If you knew everything you were going to learn [as an entrepreneur], you'd probably make different decisions!” — Allie Egan [0:21:59]“Here I was, someone that worked in skincare, was seeking a doctor, and not only did I not have the tools to solve my aesthetic issue, but I also didn't have this important information about my underlying health.” — Allie Egan [0:31:07]“One piece of advice I always like to give to [entrepreneurs] is to try to talk about your ideas early and often, even when they're not perfectly formed.” — Allie Egan [0:39:36]“Raising capital is always hard. It is such a slog. I listened to the founder of Coinbase, [who said]: a successful fundraise is 9 out of 10 people telling you no. And that's in really good times!” — Allie Egan [0:42:03]“Being an entrepreneur is like, every day, either getting an acceptance or a rejection letter from your favorite college, but getting both accepted and rejected multiple times a day, every single day. Dealing with that elation down to the dumps is something that has become the norm.” — Allie Egan [0:43:03]

Beth Hutchens of FoundRae has been an entrepreneur her entire adult life. The ritual of collection and the importance of quality seen in the fine jewelry and home décor brand was what she grew up with in her Quaker home, rich with stories and heritage that Beth says “feels alive and present” in her everyday life today. It all started when she and her Cynthia Rowley friend and co-worker, Rebecca Taylor, began making clothes. Rebecca wanted to start her own line, and Beth wanted to create clothes to wear out on the town in New York City's nightclub scene. It was in 1996 when the pair were propelled to join forces to co-found what would become the wildly popular contemporary collection, Rebecca Taylor, where Beth was CEO until she followed a whisper to return more closely to her creative roots. The FoundRae collection was born in 2015, and has gone on to win CFDA and GEM awards, and develop a loyal fan and customer following, due in part to its incredibly distinct, stand-out brand identity in a sea of many, and its covet-worthy pieces that beg to be collected and layered. On episode 105, Beth shares her family's fascinating artistic story and how it's influenced her as a maker. We discuss her creative life in New York before taking the plunge into entrepreneurship and business, helping to establish the Rebecca Taylor brand and build the FoundRae brand. She shares what she's learned about working with creatives, how to hire, how to be best at branding, the details of her own creative process, the art of collaging, how she thinks about design, and the marked differences between the fashion and jewelry industries. We talk about FoundRae's one-of-a-kind flagship store and store experience, and the brand's customer. We discuss the impact that attention to detail can create, copycatting and intellectual property, being a jack of trades and more. Shop the podcast:FoundRae.com Synchronicity by Carl Jung

On this episode of The Ginni Show, I speak with Cynthia Rowley, award-winning fashion designer and travel aficionado. Cynthia grew up in a small town in midwest Illinois before packing up her sewing machines and moving to New York City, where she eventually realized her dream of becoming a fashion designer. With theatrics including Elvis impersonators and (literally) lighting runways on fire, Cynthia's fashion shows are famously known for their dramatics. Cynthia employs the same mindsight to designing clothes as she does to traveling: be fearless. From camping in the Himalayas to surfing with sharks in Byron Bay, she maintains that some of the most memorable travel experiences are born from living on the edge. Throughout this episode, we discuss Cynthia's journey to success as a fashion designer as well as some of her most memorable travel experiences.Join me and Cynthia to learn more about her amazing adventures.In this episode, you will learn:Cynthia's experience of moving from a small town to New York City to pursue her dreams (2:23)How the age-old adage of “fake it till you make it” has worked for Cynthia(6:59)How nothing comes easy and we have to work for the things that we want (7:48)What made Cynthia's fashion shows so memorable (8:41)How Cynthia vacationed with her family as a young girl (11:08)It's not the destination, it's the journey - what this means to Cynthia and how has she applied it to her travel experiences (11:54)Cynthia's idea of a fun family vacation.

Recently, I was invited onto a podcast called Ageless, which is hosted by fashion designer Cynthia Raleigh, and her daughter, Kit Keenan. Now, I have to say, I was charmed by the rapport between them. It was quite lovely. And I got caught up in their down to earth dynamic, which admittedly, was not what I expected. You see, Cynthia Raleigh has been a staple in the fashion world for decades. And Kit has been in the public eye since she was a kid growing up in the gleaming lights of New York City. So if we were to go by the articles and the gossip columns, it almost appears one dimensional. But there is nothing one dimensional about this mother and daughter duo whose love for one another and drive to grow is awe inspiring.

Not the usual platitudes and advice, but the TRULY important stuff; the learnings and habits that anyone can take along for the ride.Episodes here:https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-the-important-things-with-92746733/The Important Things with Bobbi Brown and Anjali Kumar is a podcast that asks the question: how can you lead a life of fulfillment? The ongoing pandemic has given us all the opportunity to examine what really matters most to us and what brings us true contentment. Each week through candid conversations with friends, thought leaders, creators, and entrepreneurs, Bobbi and Anjali are looking for ...www.iheart.comBOBBI BROWN BIOEven as a young girl, Bobbi Brown was enthralled by makeup. "I remember watching my mother apply her white eye shadow and black liner in her blue gilded bathroom--she was glamorous, but fresh-looking." And as soon as she was able to work, Bobbi raced to the small cosmetics store in town, where she got her first taste of formal training.Bobbi's education continued at Boston's Emerson College, where she earned a B.F.A. in theatrical makeup. Upon graduation, she moved to New York City to make it as a professional makeup artist. She showed her ever-growing portfolio to anyone who would look at it, slowly built up contacts and experienced the challenges typical of most freelance makeup artists trying to make it in Manhattan. But despite the ups and downs, her talent and drive earned her coveted gigs with top magazines, photographers and models. Bobbi began her collaboration with photographers Bruce Weber and Arthur Elgort for American Vogue, as well as with the late Francesco Scavullo for Cosmopolitan and Self. A seven-page spread of full-face beauty shots of supermodel Tatiana Patitz--shot by Wayne Maser--also put Bobbi's work front and center.Bobbi's big breakthrough was her first American Vogue cover. The image was shot by famed photographer Patrick Demarchelier and featured the soon-to-be-supermodel Naomi Campbell, made up by Bobbi Brown. Seven years after arriving to New York City knowing no one, Bobbi was part of the club. The industry took notice.As a successful makeup artist with access to everything in the market, Bobbi found nearly all products looked too artificial, making it impossible to create a gorgeous, no-makeup look.Ten years into her freelance career, a chance meeting with a chemist at a magazine photo shoot changed everything. "I had the idea to create a lipstick that didn't smell, wasn't dry or greasy and looked like lips, only better--and I told the chemist about it," she says.The chemist made the lipstick following Bobbi's unprecedented specifications and the result was Brown Lip Color, a pinky-brown shade. Nine other brown-based lipstick shades followed soon after, and Bobbi's set of lipsticks was complete.In 1991, her 10 lipsticks debuted at the Bergdorf Goodman under the name of Bobbi Brown essentials. Bobbi was expecting to sell 100 in a month. She sold 100 within the first day.The message was clear: women wanted makeup that was simple, flattering and wearable. Word spread quickly. Bobbi's unique approach to cosmetics was a long-awaited gift for women who wanted a more natural look. The magazine industry's most prominent beauty editors got behind Bobbi, and her small, insider brand garnered big time buzz.The range expanded beyond lipstick. Bobbi's foundations were yellow-based, not pink, revolutionizing face makeup as it's known today. And, before long, she showed that she was as adept at neutrals as she was at bright and bold colors.This sea change in the beauty market caught the attention of cosmetics empire Estee Lauder, who bought Bobbi Brown Cosmetics in 1995, just four years after the company's inception. Today, Bobbi Brown retains creative control of the brand.In addition to running her company, Bobbi continues to pursue her craft by creating the runway looks for New York Fashion Week. A permanent fixture backstage, she works with the industry's best designers including Rachel Roy, J. Mendel, Erin Fetherston, Tory Burch and Cynthia Rowley.Bobbi often does how-to segments on The Today Show and The Oprah Winfrey Show, and her advice can be found in syndicated columns and advice features for magazines and websites around the globe.Of course, you can always find Bobbi where she began--on the set. Bobbi is still the world's most celebrated makeup artists for personalities and fashion magazines.A New York Times best-selling author, Bobbi has written several instructional and engaging beauty and lifestyle books, including: Bobbi Brown Beauty, Bobbi Brown Teenage Beauty, Bobbi Brown Beauty Evolution, Bobbi Brown Living Beauty and Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual.For Bobbi, making other people's lives better simply makes sense. "I love helping others because it feels good," she says. On a year-round basis, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics donates generous financial and in-kind support to organizations including Dress for Success and the Jane Addams Vocational High School.
