Podcast appearances and mentions of Diana Vreeland

Join us as Ocean House owner and award-winning author Deborah Goodrich Royce moderates a conversation with our featured author, New York Times bestselling author Fiona Davis. About the Author: Fiona Davis is the New York Times bestselling author of eight historical fiction novels set in iconic New York City buildings, including The Stolen Queen, The Magnolia Palace, The Address, and The Lions of Fifth Avenue, which was a Good Morning America book club pick. Her articles have appeared in publications like The Wall Street Journal and Oprah magazine.  She first came to New York as an actress, but fell in love with writing after getting a master's degree at Columbia Journalism School. Her books have been translated into over twenty languages, and she's based in New York City. About The Stolen Queen: Egypt, 1936: When anthropology student Charlotte Cross is offered a coveted spot on an archaeological dig in Egypt's Valley of the Kings, she leaps at the opportunity. But after an unbearable tragedy strikes, Charlotte knows her future will never be the same. New York City, 1978: Nineteen-year-old Annie Jenkins is thrilled when she lands an opportunity to work for iconic former Vogue fashion editor Diana Vreeland, who's in the midst of organizing the famous Met Gala, hosted at the museum and known across the city as the “party of the year.” Though Annie soon realizes she'll have her work cut out for her, scrambling to meet Diana's capricious demands and exacting standards. Meanwhile, Charlotte, now leading a quiet life as the associate curator of the Met's celebrated Department of Egyptian Art, wants little to do with the upcoming gala. She's consumed with her research on Hathorkare—a rare female pharaoh dismissed by most other Egyptologists as unimportant. That is, until the night of the gala. When one of the Egyptian art collection's most valuable artifacts goes missing . . . and there are signs Hathorkare's legendary curse might be reawakening. As Annie and Charlotte team up to search for the missing antiquity, a desperate hunch leads the unlikely duo to one place Charlotte swore she'd never return: Egypt. But if they're to have any hope of finding the artifact, Charlotte will need to confront the demons of her past—which may mean leading them both directly into danger.

In fashion, there are stylists—and then there are image-makers. As the “C” in KCD and one of the first male editors to define women's fashion editorial, Paul Cavaco helped shape the modern visual vocabulary of the 1990s, styling everything from Harper's Bazaar under Liz Tilberis to Madonna's era-defining Sex book with Steven Meisel and Fabien Baron. Tonne Goodman, whose early days included modeling for Richard Avedon and assisting Diana Vreeland, brought that same instinct for clarity and cultural intuition to her longstanding role as the American fashion editor of Vogue. In a moment when the function—and future—of the fashion editor is being reexamined, hearing from two of its originals felt not only timely, but essential. Their conversation is a reminder that while fashion constantly reinvents itself, the value of vision and integrity never goes out of style. "I grew up in the Bronx. There was no fashion in my house. What we had was music, grit, and individuality." - Paul Cavaco  "Everything really does happen for a reason. Even the catastrophic moments usually lead to something better." - Tonne Goodman  Episode Highlights: The Bronx Meets the Upper East Side - Paul and Tonne reflect on their wildly different upbringings—his gritty childhood in the Bronx, hers in a cultured Manhattan household—and how those contrasting backgrounds shaped their approach to fashion and image-making. Modeling Missteps and Vreeland's Memo - Tonne shares how her short-lived modeling career ended with a memorable memo from Diana Vreeland describing her as “not pretty,” but still worth investing in—an early lesson in resilience and reinvention. From the Streets to the Studio - Paul shares how growing up in the Bronx and discovering style through music and street culture gave him a grounded, real-world approach to fashion—one rooted not in fantasy, but in everyday grit and individuality. The Madonna Sex Book and the Power of Play - Paul shares behind-the-scenes stories from the making of Madonna's Sex book, revealing how humor, trust, and improvisation drove one of pop culture's most provocative moments. Working Under Vreeland, Liz Tilberis, and Anna Wintour - Both editors reflect on their experiences working under three of fashion's most legendary editor-in-chiefs, and how those women shaped the way they understood vision, authority, and trust. Amber in Poughkeepsie - Tonne recounts a story of a shoot gone wrong—turned right—thanks to a vintage car parade and quick thinking. A reminder of how the best images often come from the unexpected. What a Fashion Editor Actually Does - They unpack the evolving role of the fashion editor—from doing everything themselves in the early days to navigating the micromanagement of today's content-saturated shoots. The Value of Niceness - In an industry known for egos and elitism, both credit their long-term success to gratitude, empathy, and kindness—and explain why being “nice” is often an underrated superpower. On Creative Longevity and Staying Awake - The key to keeping ideas fresh? Staying alive to the world. For Paul, it's about visual curiosity. For Tonne, it's emotional connection. For both, it's a refusal to become calcified. What's Contemporary Now - Tonne cites empathy and mutual care as the defining principles of the present, while Paul reflects on how enduring values—rather than trends—shape what really matters.

We loved talking about the The Met, the world famous museum in New York City, particularly the Greek/Roman exhibits and the Met Gala! Our protagonist shared many qualities with the female Egyptian Pharaoh, Hathorkare. Were they both marginalized because of their sex? What secrets about their pasts needed to be unearthed? It is amazing how timeless certain issues can be! We talked about the power of a curse over Charlotte's life and whether she was projecting onto it some of her own feelings of self worth.

Biba Giacchetti"L'arte della fotografia di moda: Giampaolo Barbieri"E' scomparso all‘età di 89 anni Gian Paolo Barbieri, una vera istituzione nell'ambito della fotografia di moda. I suoi ritratti iconici di dive di ieri e di oggi, come Audrey Hepburn e Monica Bellucci, e la sua lunga collaborazione con Vogue Italia, hanno reso il suo stile inconfondibile.Nato nel 1935 in via Mazzini, appena a fianco del Duomo di Milano, da una famiglia di grossisti di tessuti dove acquisì le prime competenze utili per la fotografia di moda, Barbieri mosse i suoi primi passi nell'ambito teatrale come attore, operatore e costumista, tanto che ebbe anche una piccola parte non parlata in Medea di Luchino Visconti. Fu il cinema a dargli quel senso del movimento che trasferì nella fotografia, prima applicata alla Dolce vita romana e poi alla moda, a Parigi.Nel 1964 il ritorno a Milano e l'apertura del primo studio fotografico: iniziò in quel momento quella sfolgorante e sessantennale carriera che lo portò a collaborare con personaggi di primo piano della moda come Diana Vreeland, Yves Saint Laurent e Richard Avedon, a ritrarre le attrici più iconiche di tutti i tempi, da Audrey Hepburn a Veruschka, da Monica Bellucci a Jerry Hall, a scattare le campagne pubblicitarie di marchi internazionali come Valentino, Gianni Versace, Gianfranco Ferré, Armani, Bulgari, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce & Gabbana, Vivienne Westwood.Classificato nel 1968 dalla rivista Stern come uno dei quattordici migliori fotografi di moda al mondo, nel 2018 Barbieri ha vinto il premio Lucie Award 2018 come Miglior Fotografo di Moda Internazionale. Le sue opere sono presenti in istituzioni culturali come il Victoria & Albert Museum e la National Portrait Gallery di Londra, il Kunsforum di Vienna, il MAMM di Mosca e il Musée du Quai Branly di Parigi.    Steve McCurry "Children"Dal 20 dicembre 2024 al 4 maggio 2025 le sale del Palazzo dei Priori di Fermo ospitano la mostra Steve McCurry - Children, ideata e curata da Biba Giacchetti. Oltre cinquanta fotografie dedicate all'infanzia vista attraverso l'obiettivo del grande fotografo Steve McCurry, realizzate nell'arco di quasi cinquant'anni di carriera.Una galleria di ritratti per esplorare tutte le sfaccettature dell'infanzia, accomunate da un elemento universale: lo sguardo dell'innocenza. Le immagini, provenienti da ogni angolo del mondo, ritraggono i più piccoli in scene di vita quotidiana. I bambini negli scatti di McCurry, pur diversi per etnia, abiti e tradizioni, condividono la gioia di vivere e la capacità di giocare anche nei contesti più difficili, spesso segnati da povertà, conflitti o condizioni ambientali estreme. Il pubblico sarà accompagnato in un viaggio ideale in paesi come India, Birmania, Pakistan, Tibet, Afghanistan, Libano, Etiopia e Cuba.“Ogni immagine offre uno spaccato delle condizioni sociali più disparate, rivelando una condizione umana universale fatta di sentimenti comuni e sguardi che affermano la stessa dignità”, spiega la curatrice.“Incontriamo bambini profughi e lavoratori, giovani che trasformano un cannone arrugginito in un gioco, che rincorrono un pallone sotto la pioggia, che creano musica con chitarre fatte di materiali di scarto. Bambini che vivono nelle grandi metropoli o nei villaggi più remoti, protagonisti di storie di gioia e aggregazione, solitudine e resilienza, solidarietà e stupore”.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

In this week's episode of Style DNA I chat with the original Princess of Punk, the truly extraordinary, iconic and zany, Dame Zandra Rhodes DBE. Known for her fabulously bold prints, she launched her eponymous fashion brand 56 years ago. Rhodes is renowned for perfecting the art-of-print as an intrinsic influence on garment shape. With dramatic designs and her own distinctive look, she paved the way for fashion as theatre and entertainment.   We chat about dressing international stars including Freddie Mercury, Diana Ross, Barbara Streisand and Jackie Kennedy, as well as British Royalty, most notably, Princess Diana and Princess Anne… and I cheekily ask her if, given the opportunity, what she would design for the current Princess of Wales…   She talks about how her big career break was in the 70s, meeting two Ukrainian models who persuaded her to take her collection out to America where they were sure they could find her a backer… she arrived in New York with a letter of introduction to Diana Vreeland who fell in love with her designs and instantly commissioned a huge shoot for Vogue starring Natalie Wood…and the rest, as they say, is history.    Rhodes grew up in Kent and was surrounded by fashion from an early age as her mother was a pattern cutter for The House of Worth. She would quietly watch the bridal fittings and appear in the children's section of the shows. She evolved her own style including her love of pink hair and a dramatic eye…and always has, and still does, wear the clothes she has designed.   In 2020 she formed the Zandra Rhodes Foundation, a charity that ensures future generations of designers, artists, researchers, students and educators are able to study her life and designs, with an emphasis on her methods and techniques. Dating from the mid 1960s to the current day, the Foundation is working to catalogue her six thousand garments, printed textiles, drawings, accessories, fashion films, kodatraces, silk screens, press cuttings, personal memorabilia and collected artworks. A central collection will stay with the Foundation and the remaining material will be donated to permanent collections of major museums across the world, including the Fashion and Textile Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.   Now in her 80's her focus more recently has been on strategic collaborations with fashion and lifestyle brands such as IKEA of Sweden, Happy Socks and Poppy Lissiman. In 2003, she founded London's Fashion and Textile Museum, which to this day showcases some of the best in fashion and textile design.   She recently published a book, Iconic - My Life in Fashion in 50 Objects …it's  an insightful memoir told through a variety of mementos collected over the years, in which Zandra shares her life story for the first time…definitely worth a read!   I hope you enjoy this conversation … thank you @Zandra_Rhodes for taking me on your style journey.

It's hard to think of a famous person from the past half century that hasn't sat for a portrait by Jonathan Becker. From Madonna and Mikhail Gorbachev to Gore Vidal and Andy Warhol, this legendary photographer's work is exposed in a stunning (and first) monograph, Jonathan Becker: Lost Time. On this episode, Dan speaks with Becker about his days as a young protégé of Brassaï, his days in New York during the heyday of the '70s, his decades of contributions to Vanity Fair, his thoughts on the art form today, and how he once drove Diana Vreeland around in a taxi.

It's the 1930's and Harper's Bazaar publisher William Randolph Hearst steals away Vogue's star editor, Carmel Snow. Harper Bazaar is within striking distance of its rival. But under the direction of the Newhouse family, Vogue reaches a new peak. They snatch the outrageous Diana Vreeland from Harper's Bazaar and install her as Editor-in-Chief. Vreeland's magical mixture of fantasy, outlandishness and poetry returns Vogue to its front row seat in the Swinging Sixties. But a new challenger enters the ring. Helen Gurley Brown is at the helm of Cosmopolitan and her unique take on seductive fashion and lifestyle will change the glossies for good.Listen to Business Wars on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

We are so excited about this special episode about Anna Wintour about her unique approach to fashion and health in wellness from Grandmaster. The force of inspiration from Andy Warhol and Diana Vreeland had so much to do with her career as Editor-In-Chief of VOGUE. So pour a cup of tea, and listen in as we discuss the growth of a true icon. Will it be boring? I don't think so!

I can't be cool about today's guest, so I'm not even going to try. Ever since I started The Shift I have had a Wishlist and high up on it from day one was Dame Zandra Rhodes. Yes, that Zandra Rhodes. There can only be one after all. For over 50 years, Zandra has been a leading figure in the British fashion industry, renowned for her prints and her use of colour. Over the years she has dressed everyone from Princesses Diana to Freddie Mercury, Diana Ross and Debbie Harry, and collaborated with everyone from M&S to Ikea. Zandra is nothing if not egalitarian. Now 83 (and in remission from the terminal cancer she was diagnosed with at the start of covid), she has no plans to stop any time soon, as evidenced by her new book Iconic, My Life in Fashion in 50 Objects, a whistle-stop tour through her incredible life hanging out with ossie clark, lunching with Truman Capote, making a lifelong friend of legendary vogue editor Diana Vreeland. Which is how I get to be on my way to Bermondsey to hang out at her fabulous flat to talk about her equally fabulous life. I know! Zandra and I sat down with a cuppa to discuss how a “boring little girl” became synonymous with big, bold, uncompromising style, her lifelong workaholism, living a child-free life, using clothes as armour and the rejection that was the making of her...  * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org, including Iconic: My Life in Fashion in 50 Objects by Zandra Rhodes and the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on buymeacoffee.com. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls @ Pineapple Audio Production.

To the landscape designer Edwina von Gal, gardening is much more than just seeding, planting, weeding, and watering; it's her life calling. Since starting her namesake firm in 1984 in East Hampton, on New York's Long Island, she has worked with, for, and/or alongside the likes of Calvin Klein, Larry Gagosian, Frank Gehry, Maya Lin, Annabelle Selldorf, Richard Serra, and Cindy Sherman, creating gardens that center on native species and engage in other nature-based land-care solutions. In 2008, von Gal founded the Azuero Earth Project in Panama to promote chemical-free reforestation with native trees on the Azuero Peninsula. Stemming out of this initiative, in 2013, she then founded the Perfect Earth Project to promote chemical-free, non-agricultural land management in the U.S. Her most recent effort, Two Thirds for the Birds, is a call-to-action to plant more native plants and eliminate pesticides, thus creating a greater food supply for birds.On the episode, she discusses the meditative qualities of gardening; reframing landscaping as “land care”; and why she sees herself not as a steward of land, but rather as a collaborator with it.Special thanks to our Season 9 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Edwina von Gal[15:32] William Cronon[15:32] Changes in the Land[15:32] Tiokasin Ghosthorse[24:04] Carl Sagan[24:04] The Demon-Haunted World[26:07] Perfect Earth Project[40:37] Two Thirds for the Birds[42:41] John Fitzpatrick[42:41] Cornell Lab of Ornithology[42:41] Merlin Bird ID[47:01] Garden Club of America[50:21] Diana Vreeland[51:09] Peter Sharp[51:09] Channel Gardens at Rockefeller Center[54:46] Frank Gehry[54:46] Biomuseo[54:46] Bruce Mau[56:32] Azuero Earth Project[1:00:37] Doug Tallamy[1:02:01] Nature's Best Hope[1:05:12] The High Line[1:05:12] Brooklyn Bridge Park[1:05:12] The Battery Conservancy[1:05:12] Brooklyn Museum

Oltre"Forte di BardMostra aperta fino al 3 marzo 2024www.fortedibard.ithttps://fondazionegianpaolobarbieri.it/it/“ È un nostro compito lasciare alle generazioni future qualcosa che possa essere utile loro nell'intraprendere questo mestiere, sempre più difficile e complesso.” – Gian Paolo Barbieri C'è un luogo in cui la percezione del tempo, dello spazio e della cultura hanno scelto di allinearsi; ed è proprio qui, nel Forte di Bard, dove la creatività di Gian Paolo Barbieri ha trovato manifesto attraverso un volto diverso, in grado di racchiudere tutte le sfaccettature che lo caratterizzano.Al maestro che ha segnato la storia della fotografia contemporanea di moda e costume, il Forte di Bard dedica una grande retrospettiva in collaborazione con la Fondazione Gian Paolo Barbieri di Milano, curata da Emmanuele Randazzo, Catia Zucchetti e Giulia Manca. Esposte 112 fotografie, di cui ben 88 inedite che spaziano dagli anni '60 agli anni 2000, frutto di un'approfondita ricerca condotta all'interno dell'archivio analogico dell'artista, patrimonio storico culturale, custodito dalla Fondazione Gian Paolo Barbieri.Gian Paolo Barbieri è stato uno dei massimi esponenti che ha contribuito alla definizione di prêt-à-porter italiano e di fotografia di moda. Dapprima nella moda, poi nella fotografia etnica ed erotica, il suo sguardo sul corpo ha indagato e osservato l'anima. Ha preso forma grazie alla fotografia di moda, ha scrutato, pervaso e ha reso universale il linguaggio dei suoi scatti.Gian Paolo Barbieri Oltre è un viaggio attraverso la vita del fotografo, un viaggio a tutto tondo che mostra un volto diverso da quello già conosciuto. Presta attenzione ai dettagli, a quell'immaginario più recondito che va oltre l'immagine, oltre la moda, oltre la natura. Va oltre tutto.Gian Paolo Barbieri nasce a Milano nel 1935, in una famiglia di grossisti di tessuti, dove acquisisce le prime competenze necessarie per formarsi come fotografo di moda. Muove i primi passi nell'ambito teatrale come attore e scenografo, prima di trasferirsi a Parigi nel 1960, dove diventa assistente del celebre fotografo di Harper's Bazaar, Tom Kublin. Nel 1962 apre il suo primo studio a Milano e incomincia a lavorare nel campo della moda, scattando semplici campionari e pubblicando servizi fotografici su Novità, la rivista che in seguito diventerà Vogue Italia.Negli anni successivi collaborerà con testate internazionali come Vogue America, Vogue Paris, Vanity Fair e GQ, fotografando personaggi del calibro di Diana Vreeland, Richard Avedon, Audrey Hepburn, Yves Saint Laurent, e le super model come Jerry Hall, Veruschka, Naomi Campbell e Eva Herzigová.

Rayhaneh Sharif-Askary  is formerly an  Ultra UBS tradFI hustler turned crypto boss At Grayscale Investments, with a penchant for collaborative regulation, investment products that access that digital economy, and mid to advanced level icy skiing. We met in the airport lounge en route to Burkina Faso when she kindly offered me a breath mint and glass cleaner for my J12, neither of which I have returned. We immediately shared a bond of traditional leveraged Financed Sales, getting lost in the Metaverse, Wagner Operas  and subtly recognizing each other's pedigreed pseudo ivy league existences. We would be long time friends. Allegedly.  I have a lot to learn from Ray, she is one of the few women leaders in crypto who strikes critical balance of a nurturing Managing Director with a side order of the perfect ingredients  of fear and obsession without being disturbing. It's a common thread that everyone in the digital asset space holds a deeply unhealthy obsession with their CEO or counter dauphine. I could go on and on about premiums and discounts and the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust and the OJ lawsuit. But I take a pause to leverage my SOL and let Ray explain. In the meantime, I will  focus on my strengths of asking rappers for financial advice and educating the masses thru humor and selective fact checking. In sum, Grayscale is THE crypto asset manager, they offer 18  products, notably GBTC, and sued the SEC when it rejected its transition into an ETF.  According to Ray and court records that I didn't read, the negotiations are going tremendously as the application is currently being reviewed; WAGMI.  Ray is enviously clear on her vision for Grayscale and her team both in and out of Grayscale Decentraland, which in Ray's world is designed  with neo gothic / mid century furniture giving a Joan Didion meets Diana Vreeland aesthetic.  Ray drops vital liquid gold bars of advice on how to be a powerful, elegant yet woman in the workplace,  advice I wish I didn't need as I was not planning on working and living off of my dwindling Filecoin ICO, and alimony. Alas, if you picked up anything from this episode is that Grayscale Bitcoin Trust is one of the first securities solely and passively invested in Bitcoin (“BTC”) that enables investors to gain exposure to BTC in the form of a security while avoiding the challenges of buying, storing, and safekeeping BTC, directly and this episode and anything we say is not not not financial advice. #GlitterLedger #WomenInCrypto #GBTC #SeeYouSeason3 #SeeYouInCourt

„Nebutina gimti gražiu, kad būtum neįtikėtinai patrauklus“, – yra pasakiusi viena garsiausių XX a. vidurio „Vogue“ redaktorių Diana Vreeland, visuomet pabrėžusi asmeninio stiliaus, gausos ir prabangos svarbą. Pasak Vreeland, už blogą skonį blogiau būti gali tik jokio skonio, o būti nepraktišku ir visad persistengiančiu – natūralus kūrybingos asmenybės bruožas. Išskirtinė vizionierė, drąsi svajotoja ir escentriška redaktorė madą visuomet pristatė kaip fantaziją, o savo kolegoms duodavo netikėčiausias užduotis tolimiausiuose pasaulio kraštuose.Ved.

I had a similar experience with my son, who used to call me incessantly for tech support. It's a funny story, but it also got me thinking about the value of self-reliance. Alongside this amusement, I found a metaphorical meaning in my woodworking experiences. It's like that old Zen saying - before enlightenment, you chop wood and carry water, after enlightenment, you still chop wood and carry water.  From chopping wood to talking about the fashion industry, this episode is truly diverse.

SPRING COLLECTION APRIL 2023. Let's start with a good hat. Why don't you Diana Vreeland? Ol' TS called April the cruelest month, but I think life is "BRUTIFUL" beautiful and brutal and this mix reflects that. Something a little sexy, more flirty than dirty. With a liberal sprinkling of metal filings darling because Mama loves a gritty layer to chew on. This is me. I love churchy gospel, but I love something more too. Of all the mixes I've done HH is the one most me. Which if you know HouseOfNae at all, means a great deal. Pretty damn proud of it in other words so I hope you'll give it a listen. You might even hear a few familiar beats ;) Homburg Hidalgo also marks a new chapter and new direction. Three hours of music a month, 88 songs approximately, that I will mix, spin, layer, rotate, match, rotate and blend into a different sauce every week. 88 songs to do the same to you. Sure hope I get to spin these hours somewhere live soon. Maybe I'll go camping ;)

Galentine's Day is on the 13th of February, and I asked Jessica Painter founder of In Her Circle to join me. essica has created a community that helps women fight loneliness and build authentic, supportive friend circles. Jessica and I discuss the importance of having a solid squad, and how to celebrate the bonds of sisterhood not just on February 13th but every day of the year. Aly Pain is back to discuss the teens in our lives and how could we not take a look at teen love. Before you dismiss it as puppy love it's important to pause and take their romantic relationships seriously. Parents can help their child navigate this important stage of development and set the foundation for healthy relationships in the future simply by practicing empathy and listening with an open mind. Anne Brodie pops in with new entertainment which includes the documentary The Eye Has to Travel about the iconic fashion legend Diana Vreeland available on Amazon Prime now, also available on Prime is Somebody I Used to Know, starring Alison Brie who also who co-wrote the film with her husband and director Dave Franco, which has a sly new twist for a leading lady in a romantic movie , plus The Love Club on W just in time for the hopeless romantics out there. Singles Day falls on the 15th of February, and there has been loads of evidence presented lately that says that unmarried, childless women are the happiest subgroup of the population. Yet as we approach Valentine's Day there is a societal pressure put on the single ladies. So I called on Nora Spinks, CEO of Work-Life Harmony Enterprises, to join me to discuss the stigma of singleism, why unmarried and childless women are so darn happy, and how to avoid some of the loneliness that single women may feel. Dating after divorce is about as enticing as a root canal. It can be daunting jumping back in the dating game after a long marriage, and believe me when I say everything you know about dating has changed. Nadine Araksi has your back. Nadine has personally experienced the difficulties of navigating the dating scene, written about her experience for Chatelaine, and joined me with Chapter 2 Dating for an extended podcast on this subject. If you're currently thinking about throwing yourself back in the dating ring, listen to this interview first. Finally, I don't even know what to say about the fact that along with celebrating Galentine's Day, Valentine's Day and Single's Day this week, there is also National Poop Day coming up on February 13th. Perhaps I should have put this at the Number 2 segment in today's show? Either way Dr. Ashley Margeson joins me for a couple of laughs but some serious info about your health and how a lot of how you're doing starts with taking a good look at why you leave in the bowl.

“She's quiet and not bombastic and wears a uniform every day, but Tonne changed this industry and the way Americans look at fashion. Tonne is rad. She is the definition of radical.” Tonne Goodman, a native New Yorker, began her career in fashion as a model but quickly decided to explore other areas of the industry. Having studied art, she joined Diana Vreeland at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. From there she went to the New York Times Magazine, to work with Carrie Donovan, before leaving to become a stylist with LIFE magazine and various commercial clients. She was appointed vice president of advertising for Calvin Klein in 1988. There she created iconic imagery for the company. After working alongside Liz Tilberis at Harper's Bazaar,  Goodman joined Anna Wintour at Vogue in 1999, and served as the magazine's fashion director for nearly twenty years, responsible for dramatic editorials and innumerable eye-catching covers. In 2010, she was awarded the Eleanor Lambert Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America. Goodman, a mother of two, works and lives in Manhattan. She is also know as “the nicest US Vogue editor” as per the NYtimes.

From humble beginnings in Durham, North Carolina to walking the halls at American Vogue, André Leon Talley paved an unbelievable life and career for himself doing what he loved most, talking about fashion. He is described by friends and colleagues as being larger than life and an expert fashion historian who had an opinion on everything. Recording this episode was such a joy because everything that André did, he exuted his obsession with his love for fashion. In this episode we discuss his internship under Diana Vreeland, his attributions he made during his almost decade long stay at Vogue(where he became the creative director), and the racial boundaries he broke to push the fashion world into a more accepting and inclusive space. André was an icon among icons and as Will.I.Am said, “the Nelson Mandela of couture, the Kofi Annan of what you got on.” Dm us or comment on one of our instagram photos your favorite André quote or André-ism!

Part VI - Serpents Our fifth season of Gem Pursuit feat. Matthew Weldon & Alyce Ketcher is called 'Treasured Tokens: the Secret Language of Jewellery' In the penultimate episode of this series, we take a look at the mysterious and often misunderstood symbol that is the serpent. The snake has been an extremely popular motif in jewellery down through the centuries, partly because of the way it naturally coils around the body but also due to its complex and ambivalent symbolic signifiance. We talk about the serpent in the story of Adam & Eve, René Lalique and the Art Nouveau movement, Sarah Bernhardt's Medusa headpiece, Diana Vreeland and of course Bulgari's Serpenti collection. Listen to the end for Collector's Tips where we'll tell you what to look out for when you're buying your own pieces of serpent jewellery.

Leading celebrations expert, Darcy Miller, grew up in a house where both of her parents were artistic, and "making things" was a daily occurrence. But their artistic passion was never about being hardcore crafters but more about celebrating life and everyday moments. Their mantra of D.I.T. (Do it together) versus D.I.Y., creating memories, was always the driver. Darcy's mom worked for Diana Vreeland, and her after-school activities included being dragged to the MET. She would watch them work on the MET shows while she did her homework. That creative environment left an impression on Darcy that would inspire her future career. She, of course, didn't know that at the time. Beginning her career early, Darcy flexed her artistic muscle as a college entrepreneur, but after college, she was faced with a fork in the road decision: Interview to be Anna Wintour's assistant OR become the assistant to Martha Stewart, who was launching a start-up magazine. Going with her gut and following her crafting passion, she went on the road less traveled and has never looked back. Today, Darcy is the founder of Darcy Miller Designs, culminating over twenty-five years of cultivating and creating inspiration and ideas for all things celebrations. In this episode, you will learn to view every day as a celebration and why capturing those memories builds the foundation for long-term happiness and meaningful relationships. Darcy also shares how to choose the right path when you're faced with more than one direction and so much more. *** This episode of LEAVE YOUR MARK is brought to you by one of my all-time favorite brands, Stuart Weitzman!

The witty and perceptive diaries kept by Cecil Beaton's authorised biographer during his many fascinating encounters with extraordinary - often legendary - characters in his search for the real Cecil Beaton. Hugo Vickers's life took a dramatic turn in 1979 when the legendary Sir Cecil Beaton invited him to be his authorised biographer. The excitement of working with the famous photographer was dashed only days later when Cecil Beaton died. But the journey had begun - Vickers was entrusted with Beaton's papers, diaries and, most importantly, access to his friends and contemporaries. The resulting book, first published in 1985, was a best seller. In Malice in Wonderland, Vickers shares excerpts from his personal diaries kept during this period. For five years, Vickers travelled the world and talked to some of the most fascinating and important social and cultural figures of the time, including royalty such as the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret, film stars such as Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn and Julie Andrews, writers such as Truman Capote and photographers such as Irving Penn and Horst. And not only Beaton's friends - Vickers sought out the enemies too, notably Irene Selznick. He was taken under the wings of Lady Diana Cooper, Clarissa Avon and Diana Vreeland. Drawn into Beaton's world and accepted by its members, Vickers the emerging biographer also began his own personal adventure. The outsider became the insider - Beaton's friends became his friends. Malice in Wonderland is a fascinating portrait of a now disappeared world, and vividly and sensitively portrays some of its most fascinating characters as we travel with Vickers on his quest.

Costanza's parents, Gabriella and Michele Pascolato, emigrated from Italy to Brazil in the aftermath of World War II, and in 1948 they started the Santaconstancia textile company, which became a fixture in Brazil's world of fabric and fashion. By the age of six, Costanza had already developed her own sense of style. Now 81, she remains an icon of fashion and style, her signature look recognized around the world. Katie speaks with Costanza's daughter Consuelo, who has managed to revere her mother and find a voice of her own.A note: This week we introduce a pair of partnerships with small-batch companies that make products we love.

A resposta da Mãe nesta altura foi um retundo "Não!".Estas duas “Mulheres” têm alegria de vida para dar e vender!

As revistas e editoriais de moda nem sempre foram o que são hoje. Nesse episódio, falamos sobre o turning point entre fotos meramente comerciais e a escolha pelo conceito, quem foram os fotógrafos Richard Avedon e Steven Meisel, o papel de Diana Vreeland e Grace Coddington na criação da imagem de moda como conhecemos, a ascensão do streetstyle e como o Instagram se tornou uma importante forma de democratização do conceito (ufa!).

Today’s episode is with titan of American fashion, André Leon Talley. Raised in Durham North Carolina by his grandmother, Andre’s love for fashion began at an early age, with his discovery of magazines like Vogue and Harper Bazaar, giving him access to worlds and visions beyond the segregated Jim Crow South. A star student, Andre received a full scholarship to Brown University to study French literature, after completing his undergraduate degree at local HBCU, North Carolina Central University. Although he came from humble beginnings, André’s meteoric rise through the editorial mastsheads of fashion's most prominent publications, speak not only to his fine-tuned intellect, but also a keen... social intelligence; navigating the dominantly white front rows of the fashion industry for decades. Beginning with an internship at the Metropolitan Museum of Art with legendary fashion editor and life-long mentor, Diana Vreeland, he went on to work at Andy Warhol’s Factory and Interview magazine. Later stints at Women’s Wear Daily, W Magazine, and the The New York Times, prepared him for his influential role atop the masthead as creative director of American Vogue in 1988, making him the highest ranking Black person in fashion journalism. In 2003 He published his first memoir, ALT, and his current book, “The Chiffon Trenches,” which offers a candid window into his professional and personal struggles, was released May of 2020. He currently sits on the Board of Trustees at the Savannah College of Art and Design, and his documentary, “The Gospel According to Andre” by director Kim Novak, was released in the US in 2018. This conversation with Andre was recorded just two day ago, but felt so relevant and pressing that we decided to release part one for you today.  We speak of Andre’s life in the Jim Crow South, his introduction into America’s upper class at Brown University, how fashion served as armor to shield him his serial childhood sexual abuse, and I, for the first time publicly, speak of my own. Please enjoy Part ONE of this wide-ranging interview with my friend and Mentor, Andre Leon Talley.

Andre´Leon Talley joins a Zoom call to talk about his new book The Chiffon Trenches. It is especially relevant as racismplayed a prominent role in his journey to become one of the most revered voices in the fashion world. He talks about Dave Chappelle recent special and how he was able to find inspiration for fashion as a young black man living in the segregated south. The Chiffon Trenches is a memoir of how André Leon Talley not only survived the brutal style landscape but thrived—despite racism, illicit rumors, and all the other challenges of this notoriously cutthroat industry—to become one of the most renowned voices and faces in fashion. Woven throughout the book are also André’s own personal struggles that have impacted him over the decades, along with intimate stories of those he has turned to for inspiration (Diana Vreeland, Diane von Fürstenberg, Lee Radziwill, to name a few), and of course his Southern roots and ongoing faith, which have guided him since childhood.

André Leon Talley is one of the fashion industry's most influential style setters. He has been at the forefront of fashion whether it was creative director for Vogue, a judge on “America’s Next Top Model”, editor of Russian Numéro magazine, or artistic director of Zappos. He was a protégé of Diana Vreeland and Andy Warhol, and became one of the most prominent African Americans in the world of designer fashion.Andre sits down with Bobbi to discuss his life and career including working with icons like Andy Warhol and Diana Vreeland, the legendary editor-in-chief of Vogue from 1962 to 1971. And now the documentary of his life and career, The Gospel According to André, directed by Kate Novack.

Meet legendary thinker, innovator, disruptor and Cradle to Cradle hero, William McDonough. Architect, designer, thought leader, and author – his vision for a future of abundance for all is helping companies and communities think differently. He was the inaugural chair of the World Economic Forum’s Meta-Council on the Circular Economy and currently serves on the Forum’s Global Future Council on the Future of Environment and Natural Resource Security. For more than 40 years, he has defined the principles of the sustainability movement. This interview is a must for anyone who is interested in the circular economy, or indeed just cares about the future of our planet.  We discuss why we should we view waste as a resource, and how we can transition to doing that. We talk about sustainable development, about look at how we measure society’s success now, and how we might change that in future. As Bill and his co-writer Michael Braungart write in Cradle to Cradle, “In the race for economic progress, social activity, ecological impact, cultural activity, and long-term effects can be overlooked.” We also dig into emptiness vs. abundance. Unpick the idea of fashion as a verb. Look at how weaving and mathematics are linked. And talk about clothes and Diana Vreeland, beauty and the impotrtance of language. Bill can talk about any subject in a completely delightful way. Buckle up for a wild conversational ride.  

Episode 23 is all about Diana Vreeland, the renowned fashion editor who helmed both Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, effectively shaping fashion in the 20th century, and Sarah Winchester, heiress to the ‘cursed' Winchester Rifle fortune, who basically built and lived in the most insanely creeptastic and haunted house ever designed.

Designers know they’ve made it when their collections are stocked by Saks, Bergdorf’s or Barneys. The iconic New York department stores hold a special allure, even when you live elsewhere. But retail, globally, is in a state of flux. Will there even be physical stores in 10 or 20 years’ time? As customers continue to head online, it seems like every week there's news of another “bricks and mortar” closure. In the US, analysts predict 25 % of malls could shutter within the next five years. Will we ditch consumerism on mass, as the anti-shopping / buy nothing movements expand? Will renting fashion and clothing libraries become major trends? Or is it still all about experiences? The latter is where Simon Doonan comes in. He calls himself a carnival type, likens his celebrated window displays for Barneys New York to something out of Coney Island – and indeed he has put some very unusual objects in shop windows in his time. Creative director, writer, fashion commentator and OTT window dresser extraordinaire, Simon Doonan is an actual proper fashion legend. Wait till you hear how he got into it. Growing up gay and dreaming of glamour in 1960s Reading, he moved to Manchester then London in search of “the beautiful people”, cadging window dressing jobs off the likes Tommy Nutter (tailor to the Beatles and the Rolling Stones) and cult filmmaker Ken Russell’s wife. Simon was a Blitz Kid (part of the famed London party set) then moved to LA, where he did windows for luxury boutique Maxfield. In mid-80s Manhattan, he worked for Diana Vreeland at the Met, before joining Barneys, where, you know, he was JUST CASUALLY FRIENDS WITH JOAN RIVERS. And nearly starred in The Devil Wears Prada. Simon’s story is both extraordinary, and, in a weird way ordinary – in that Fashion Land has long been a place where eccentric, creative kids from small, unremarkable towns can find a home and thrive. In this Episode we talk about his professional path, and how today’s new generation of designers and dream weavers can navigate the changed fashion landscape. We discuss Simon’s unwavering belief in the value of originality - ("Conformity is the only real fashion crime," he says) and some of the fashion geniuses he’s encountered. And of course we talk shop. The show notes will be live shortly at  www.clarepress.com/ - keep checking back, we’ll have some fantastic pics to show you.

He wears orange and burgundy robes and he’s the only Westerner the Dalai Lama has ever chosen to be the abbot of a Tibetan Buddhist monastery. Vreeland is also the grandson of long-time Vogue editor and queen of fashion Diana Vreeland. The son of a diplomat, Vreeland spent his early life in Europe chasing women and driving fast cars. After moving back to the U,S., Vreeland apprenticed with master photographers Irving Penn and Richard Avedon. That was before he decided to become a monk, shave his head and move to a Tibetan Buddhist monastery in India. There’s a movie about Vreeland’s life called “Monk with a Camera.” I’d seen it. That’s how I recognized him walking down the street in Manhattan and asked him to be on “Now What?” Listen to what Vreeland told me about mortality, celibacy, the Dalai Lama and the experiences in life that are really important.

Rose Hartman, whose work has been published in Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, and Vanity Fair, has been granted the kind of celebrity access in her 35+year career that most photographers can only dream to have. The "social historian" shot Jerry Hall and Diana Vreeland in the seventies, Jackie Onassis in the eighties, and Anna Wintour (smiling!) at Christie's in the nineties, to name a few of her widely circulated images. In 2012, a solo exhibit of photos from her book, INCOMPARABLE WOMEN of STYLE, opened at the Fashion Institute of Technology.  Her latest book, INCOMPARABLE COUPLES,(ACC Editions) features more than 150 photographs, including the famous shot of Bianca Jagger kissing Mick Jagger at Studio 54 for her birthday party in 1977.  Her photos have been exhibited at the Whitney Museum, the Museum of the City of NY, Experience Music Project, Staley-Wise Gallery, the Library of Performing Arts, the Dia Foundation, Serge Sorokko Gallery, the Dean Project, Pucci Gallery, the Ravestijn Gallery in Amsterdam (selected list).  Website: http://rosehartman.com 

Artiste, photographe, révélateur de talents, directeur artistique du magazine Harper's Bazaar de 1934 à 1958, aux côtés de Carmel Snow et de Diana Vreeland, Alexey Brodovitch est considéré comme le père spirituel des directeurs artistiques de la presse de mode. Né en Russie, il a quitté Saint Pétersbourg au moment de la Révolution de 1917 pour se réfugier à Paris. Luc Quelin raconte le passage de Brodovitch aux Cahiers d’Art, son affiche célèbre pour le Bal de charité des Russes de Paris (Bal Banal, 1924), son rôle de directeur de la publicité aux magasins des Trois Quartiers à la Madeleine, ses relations avec les artistes à Paris (Chagall, Picasso…), puis les photographes américains qu’il a contribué à rendre célèbres (Man Ray, Irving Penn, Richard Avedon, Hiro…). Parti aux États-Unis pour enseigner à Philadelphie (Design Laboratory, université des Arts), il forme des générations de designers graphiques et de photographes. En 1934, il devient directeur artistique du magazine Harper's Bazaar où il renouvelle l’illustration de mode à travers un recours toujours inventif à la photographie, au dessin, à la peinture, la typographie…

Fendi (1925-) är ett av Italiens allra lyxigaste modemärken och det av en alldeles speciell anledning - päls. Genom att strimla, raka, krulla, färga, plasta in och vända skinn av mink, räv, får, ekorre, sobel och utter in och ut har Fendi utvecklat tekniker som får päls att kännas lika lätt som tyg. Bakom framgångarna fanns fem starka kvinnor - Paola, Anna, Franca, Carla och Alda Fendi. Och Karl Lagerfeld, förstås. Han är sedan 1965 ansvarig för märkets design av pälsar, och damkläder. Mer om familjen Fendi, päls och varför de idag har lanserat pälsmonster berättar vi i veckans STIL, som varit i Rom på besök. Sedan 2001 ägs Fendi av det stora franska modekonglomeratet LVMH, men kvar i företaget finns Silvia Venturini Fendi, dotter till Anna Fendi. Det är hon som ligger bakom märkets så kallade Baguette-väska som man kan klämma fast under armen, precis som det franska brödet med samma namn. Den blev – och är fortfarande – en försäljningsframgång som får marknadschefer att löddra av lycka. Fler än tusen varianter på väskan har gjorts genom åren i olika material och färger. Märkets pälsar står däremot Karl Lagerfeld för. Det är ett arbete som han haft i 48 år. Det är rekord i en modebransch som annars lever på omväxling. Men han är förstås en aldrig sinande idéspruta. Nu har han gett ny energi till märket som till 2013 års höst- och vinterkollektion fick några av sina bästa recensioner hittills. Märkets filosofi ”Fun Fur” (vilket logotypens dubbla F står för) har återupplivats. Mer om honom, familjen Fendi och deras pälsfilosofi berättar vi om i programmet. Där får vi också möta Ann Mari Senepa som sedan 1957 är bosatt i Rom. Det är en svensk kvinna som skulle kunna kalla sig den sjätte Fendi-systern. Hon började arbeta för företaget/familjen Fendi på 1970-talet, efter en tid som medarbetare på amerikanska Vogue i Rom (vilket innebär att hon jobbade för tidningen då den legendariska Diana Vreeland var chefredaktör, bara så ni vet). Hon berättar om sitt liv och sin tid med The Fendi Family. Den relationen fortgår, för övrigt. Vi luftar också frågan om varför det betraktas som mer kontroversiellt att bära päls än att äta kött. Om det nu är så. Hänger den ökande toleransen för päls kanske ihop med den ökande konsumtionen av kött? Har vi slutat bry oss om att det är djur det handlar om? Vi har talat med filosofen Jonna Bornemark om den saker. I likhet med det italienska modeföretaget Tod's finansierar Fendi upprustning av Roms historiska monument. Fendi for Fountains kallas det projekt som går ut på att renovera den berömda barockfontänen Fontana di Trevi. I programmet får vi möta en annan typ av privata välgörare som förvisso rör sig på historisk mark, men som månar om högst levande pälsklädda varelser i behov av hjälp i Rom (ledtråd: mjau).

The title says it all: Diana Vreeland was, in fact, that Empress of Fashion, reigning over Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute for half a century. As a result, her life story stretches the conventions of biography, which so often presents mid-century women's lives merely as a series of relationships. Amanda MacKenzie Stuart‘s Empress of Fashion: Diana Vreeland, A Life (Thames & Hudson, 2013) provides a stunning alternative: the work narrative. Vreeland's is the story of an individual who, through sheer will, became the person she wanted to be. Today, we often read biography for inspiration and Vreeland herself searched for such in the lives she encountered and read, as Stuart writes: “At this point Diana wobbled back toward the idea of finding a great person on whom to model herself: ‘then by that I can become great.'” And yet she came up short, writing in her diary, “You know for years I am and always have been looking out for girls to idolize because they are things to look up to because they are perfect. Never have I discovered that girl or that woman. I shall be that girl.” Stuart's portrait of Vreeland revolves around this notion that she, a woman who was not considered conventionally attractive, excelled in the world of beauty by virtue of this vision- this driving idea of being The Girl and showing readers how they might be their own version of The Girl as well. The element that separates the notion of The Girl from fashion journalism today is that The Girl was- at least in the beginning- attainable, more an attitude supplemented by seasonal accessories and small touches than a look defined by brand names. In the end, as Stuart mentions in our interview, Vreeland's is a story of great hope: that one doesn't have to a be a conventional beauty to be fashionable, one doesn't have to be a man to produce exceptional work, one doesn't have to conform to the lives and standards of others to be great. Simply by being herself, by being that girl she couldn't find anywhere else, Vreeland became an icon. As a friend recalled: “She didn't merely enter a room, she exhilarated it.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The element that separates the notion of The Girl from fashion journalism today is that The Girl was- at least in the beginning- attainable, more an attitude supplemented by seasonal accessories and small touches than a look defined by brand names. In the end, as Stuart mentions in our interview, Vreeland’s is a story of great hope: that one doesn’t have to a be a conventional beauty to be fashionable, one doesn’t have to be a man to produce exceptional work, one doesn’t have to conform to the lives and standards of others to be great. Simply by being herself, by being that girl she couldn’t find anywhere else, Vreeland became an icon. As a friend recalled: “She didn’t merely enter a room, she exhilarated it.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The title says it all: Diana Vreeland was, in fact, that Empress of Fashion, reigning over Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute for half a century. As a result, her life story stretches the conventions of biography, which so often presents mid-century women’s lives merely as a series of relationships. Amanda MacKenzie Stuart‘s Empress of Fashion: Diana Vreeland, A Life (Thames & Hudson, 2013) provides a stunning alternative: the work narrative. Vreeland’s is the story of an individual who, through sheer will, became the person she wanted to be. Today, we often read biography for inspiration and Vreeland herself searched for such in the lives she encountered and read, as Stuart writes: “At this point Diana wobbled back toward the idea of finding a great person on whom to model herself: ‘then by that I can become great.'” And yet she came up short, writing in her diary, “You know for years I am and always have been looking out for girls to idolize because they are things to look up to because they are perfect. Never have I discovered that girl or that woman. I shall be that girl.” Stuart’s portrait of Vreeland revolves around this notion that she, a woman who was not considered conventionally attractive, excelled in the world of beauty by virtue of this vision- this driving idea of being The Girl and showing readers how they might be their own version of The Girl as well.

This week, literary luminary Martin Amis lets the dogs out… Top Chef Susan Feniger celebrates the New Year… satirist Simon Rich lists divine comedies… San Fran band The Fresh and Onlys serve up a sweet soundtrack… The Posts return to explain the art of good goodbyes… and fashion editor Diana Vreeland gets her close-up. Plus, skimming stones, rolling cows, and the most naive narrator in the world.

Elsa Schiaparelli (1890-1973) var en av det tidiga 1900-talets mest moderna designer, hypermodern, till och med. Det mesta hon gjorde då, görs idag, och alldeles självklart - samarbeta med konstnärer, resa för att inspireras, axelvaddar, synliga blixtlås, konstnärligt utformade knappar, syntetmaterial, knalliga färger och plagg med priser som gjorde dem tillgängliga för många. Trots det är hon inte alls lika känd som sin samtida kollega och konkurrent, Coco Chanel. Men snart kommer hennes namn att snurra runt igen, och hennes gärning att lyftas fram. Tillsammans med modedesignern Miuccia Prada är hon nämligen föremål för den kommande stora modeutställningen Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations på The Metropolitan Museum of Art i New York (den börjar den 10 maj). I programmet berättar vi mer om Elsa Schiaparellis liv och karriär. I modehistorien beskrivs ofta Elsa Schiaparelli som en excentriker, och det var hon också. Men hon var även enormt ekonomiskt framgångsrik. Inte minst tack vare bra relationer med den amerikanska marknaden. I USA sålde hon som smör, och hennes namn var där välkänt ända in på 50-talet. När hon besökte huvudkontoret för det amerikanska varuhuset Neiman Marcus i Dallas, Texas, arrangerade de ett cocktailparty för 3000 gäster och hade dekorerat lokalen med ett jättelikt Eiffeltorn och tusentals nejlikor – allt i hennes signaturfärg ”Shocking Pink”. Hon var deras bäst säljande designer.  Elsa Schiaparelli var även mycket framgångsrik med sina parfymer. Hon gjorde flera och de flesta började på bokstaven ”S” – Salut, Soucis, Sleeping, Success Fou och så förstås Shocking, vars flaska i form av en kvinnotorso – eller provdocka, runt halsen hänger ett måttband– var inspirerad av den kurviga skådespelerskan Mae West, som var en av Elsas kunder.  Egentligen hade Elsa Schiaparelli inte alls tänkt sig att bli någon modedesigner. Hon föddes i en välbärgad aristokratisk familj i Rom. På besök i London blev hon blixtförälskad i en stilig polsk greve som hon omgående gifte sig med. Tillsammans bosatte de sig i USA där Elsa födde en dotter, Gogo. Men snart tog kärleken slut, liksom Elsas pengar. Hon blev ensamstående mor. I Paris halkade hon som en slump in modevärlden, som tog emot henne med öppna armar. Utom Chanel. Hon fräste ilsket ”den där italienska konstnären som gör kläder”. ”Den där trista lilla borgerliga kvinnan”, fräste Schiaparelli tillbaka.  Elsa Schiaparelli tog inte mode med en klackspark, men hon hade sinne för det humoristiska och absurda. Hon blev, inte helt oväntat, god vän med många av dåtidens konstnärer inom fauvisterna, kubisterna, futuristerna och surrealisterna. Hon samarbetade med flera av dem, bland annat Jean Cocteau vars teckningar blev broderier på hennes plagg. Salvador Dali hjälpte henne att skapa hattar i form av en telefon, lammkotletter och en sko. Och det var han som gjorde mönstret till den berömda hummerklänningen som Hertiginnan av Windsor bar. Han uppges ha blivit besviken över att inte ha fått smeta äkta majonnäs på klänningen när den var klar. Elsa Schiaparellis var den första att själv påpeka att hon inte kunde det minsta om hur man sydde kläder. Hon tecknade istället ned sina idéer som hon kläckte medan hon körde bil, eller promenerade. Hon tänkte illa mellan fyra väggar, som hon sade. Sedan förklarade hon exakt hur hon ville ha det, för dem som kunde konstruera mönster och sy. Flera kända modeskapare började sin bana hos henne, bland annat Hubert de Givenchy. Men hon ansåg att bristen på sömnadskunskap inte var någon nackdel. Det gav frihet. I programmet träffar vi den svenska modeskaparen Diana Orving som inte heller har någon formell modeutbildning – utan att det har hindrat hennes karriär det minsta. Hon har till exempel gjort kostymerna till baletten Kom ni döttrar (som ingår i föreställningen Triple Excellence) som denna helg har premiär på Operan i Stockholm. Men till skillnad från Chanel – och många andra modenamn och modehus – så har Elsa Schiaparellis namn inte återuppväckts med hjälp av nya pengar som i gamla modemärken ser en potential till ännu mer pengar genom att hamra ut deras historier till allmänheten. Det är förstås bara en tidsfråga. Namnet och märket Schiaparelli ägs sedan 2007 av det italienska modeföretaget Tod's, ett av Italiens allra mest framgångsrika. Men hennes namn har hållits levande av hennes barnbarn, Berry och Marisa Berenson. Marisa var tidigare en av världens mest berömda fotomodeller. Yves Saint Laurent kallade henne för 1970-talets it girl, modeskaparen Halston var som en bror för henne och Diana Vreeland var ett av hennes största fans. Just nu är hon aktuell med boken My Life in Pictures. En fotobok med bilder från hennes extraordinära liv, och karriär. Det berättar vi mer om. Vi har även pratat med Linda Spjut, konstnär och musiker, samt Erik Haal, musiker, som båda har samarbetat med modeskapare när det gäller att skapa musik till visningar. Veckans gäst är Anna Sara Dåvik, modeskapare.

Ingen annan moderedaktör har blivit så omtalad och så mytomspunnen som Diana Vreeland (1903-1989) vars namn än idag väcker respekt, och intresse trots att det är över tjugo år sedan hon dog. Just nu är hon extra aktuell genom en bok och en dokumentärfilm som båda bär hennes namn: Diana Vreeland - The Eye Has To Travel. I veckans STIL tittar vi lite närmare på denna kvinna som satt mitt i modesmeten i nästan femtio år. Diana Vreeland började som moderedaktör för Harper's Bazaar 1936, där hon stannade i tjugofem år innan hon blev utnämnd till chefredaktör för Vogue. En tidning som hon lyfte till nya moderna höjder under 1960-talet. Två nummer i månaden producerade hon, med aldrig sviktande kvalitet och överraskande vinklar på traditionella ämnen. ”Diana Vreeland uppfann moderedaktören”, hävdade den ansedde fotografen Richard Avedon med vilken hon länge samarbetade.  Från Vogue fick hon sparken 1971. Det var nya kärva ekonomiska tider och ingen plats fanns för en kvinna med nollkoll på utgifter. Men kort därefter inledde hon en ny karriär som ansvarig för kostymavdelningen på Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art i New York. Det är henne som museet kan tacka för att avdelningen blivit en publikmagnet med besökssiffror i miljonnivå – och en förebild för andra museers modeavdelningar. I programmet berättar vi mer om Diana Vreeland och hennes strävan efter att skapa skönhet, en längtan som fick bränsle av hennes mamma som deklarerade: ”Det är tråkigt att du har en sådan vacker syster när du är så väldigt ful”, som hon sade. För Diana Vreeland var ingen skönhet utan snarare fulsnygg, med prominent näsa, svart färgat hår lackat med hårspray och en utpräglad gångstil med utskjutna höfter. Den kände fotografen Cecil Beaton beskrev henne som ”en elegant trana som med långa kliv tar sig ur ett kärr”. Mammans ord skavde hela livet men fick henne att arbeta hårt och målmedvetet på att skapa sig ett eget universum, som hon gärna delade med sig av. En värld många än idag fascineras av. Vi har även talat med Lisa Immordino Vreeland, som är gift med ett av Diana Vreelands barnbarn, och som står bakom boken och filmen Diana Vreeland – The Eye Has To Travel. Hon ville veta mer om denna berömda kvinna vars namn fortfarande nämns med vördnad och respekt, och började forska. Det var inte lätt. Diana Vreeland tog lätt på det här med fakta och hittade gärna på historier som inte var helt med sanningen överensstämmande, men nästan. Men vad spelade det för roll? Underhållande var det. Det var även hon, som gärna bjöd hem gäster till sitt vardagsrum som hon ville ha inrett som ”En helvetesträdgård”, a garden in hell. Med tapeter har vi talat med Hanna Werning.  ”En ny klänning tar dig ingenstans, utan det gör livet du lever i klänningen”, hävdade Diana Vreeland. Varför köpa, om man kan låna kläder? Lena Patriksson Keller på Patriksson Communication berättar i programmet om vilka de lånar ut kläder till, och varför.

I vårens första STIL ska vi bege oss in i modetidningarnas värld då det gamla formatet "papperstidningar" verkar bli allt populärare, trots moderna bloggar och sajter där man kan se modevisningar, live. I programmet vrider vi klockan tillbaka till den första halvan av 1900-talet för att ta en titt på en av tidernas allra mest tongivande tidningsredaktörer i genren Carmel Snow (1887-1961). Det var hon som fick amerikanska Harper's Bazaar att bli till en tidning som än idag tjänar som en sorts förebild för hur en modetidning ska se ut. Hon upptäckte talanger som formgivaren Alexey Brodovitch, fotografen Richard Avedon och moderedaktören Diana Vreeland. Om samarbetet som skapade modehistoria berättar vi mer om i programmet.
