Darnell Strom's professional path has wound its way from politics to Hollywood, a trajectory that started with several globe-trotting years working for former US President Bill Clinton. As partner and head of culture and leadership at entertainment agency UTA today Strom represents totemic cultural figures including Nobel Peace Prize laureate Malala Yousafzai and Edward Enninful, the outgoing editor-in-chief of British Vogue, as well as Gisele Bundchen and Michaela Cole. The breadth of his client roster reflects Strom's thesis that captivating, culturally impactful people can come from anywhere. “My definition of talent isn't just an actor, a musician and an athlete,” he says. “It's also a well-known politician or an incredible activist or a rock star CEO or someone in fashion, an artist … I want to be able to represent all those people.”This week on The BoF Podcast, BoF founder and editor-in-chief Imran Amed sits down with Strom to discuss what his career has taught him about the power of creativity and cultural convergence – and the opportunities this is creating for top talents. Key Insights:It was a conversation with the late fashion designer Virgil Abloh that inspired Strom to think differently about his work as an agent and seek out clients from all types of industries. He recalls Abloh telling him: “You should be representing people like me, people who are multi-hyphenate, people who understand that there are no walls between these worlds of culture.” Strom believes social media has irrevocably democratised the entertainment industry, making it possible for even an aspiring filmmaker from anywhere to create a blockbuster movie or a fashion trend that stems from a single post. “As you look at the marketplace, both in fashion and entertainment and media, everything is moving at such a fast rate. And if you're doing the job the same way you did 10 years ago, you're going to get left behind,” he says.Strom believes the changes we are seeing is just the start of a bigger journey. “I think the future of culture is convergence, which we're seeing now. But I think it's just the beginning of it. I think the next 10 years are going to be fascinating,” says Strom.

What the Hollywood Strike Means for Fashion: While red carpets have momentarily dried up for brands and stylists, the SAG and WGA's simultaneous strikes pose an unlikely opportunity for fashion companies to tap celebrity talent.

Lindsay Peoples and Samira Nasr: Advice to Journalists, The State of Fashion Media, and The Role of Editor-in-Chief I love facilitating panel discussions and for this season of Pod Noor, we decided to bring that collective energy here. For this week's episode, I spoke with the two of the most innovative and prominent magazine editors: Lindsay Peoples and Samira Nasr.  Lindsay Peoples is Editor-in-Chief of The Cut Magazine. Also, one of the nation's rare Black Women Editors-in-Chief. Lindsay was previously the EIC of Teen Vogue, and the youngest EIC of a Conde Nast  magazine. Lindsay also co-founded the Black in Fashion Council, which has enlisted the support of the human rights campaign to provide benchmarking around corporate policies and practices that are pertinent to the inclusivity of black employees. Samira Nasr is the editor in chief of Harpers' Bazaar Magazine, and the first Black Woman to hold the title. Samira was previously at Vanity Fair, where she served as Executive Fashion Director. In Her own words she is “The proud daughter of a Lebanese father and Trinididadian mother, and her worldview is expansive and anchored in the belief that representation matters.” I have been in awe of both of these women for years, witnessing up close the way they have broken barriers both in journalism and in fashion; and here it is, on Podcast Noor, that these two powerhouses are in a conversation like this for the FIRST TIME.  Welcome to our first podcast panel! At Your Service, Noor Some Questions Asked in This Episode: What do you feel is the responsibility of an editor in chief of a media publication today? What resources do fashion magazines have at their disposal? What are the additional resources needed? Do you find yourself still encouraging people to pursue journalism? What do we need to be talking more about with young storytellers? What are you feeling about your places in fashion and in this industry today?  How do we (do we?) prevent tokenization in fashion? ☕️ This episode is sponsored by our friends at Ahmad Tea:  www.ahmadteausa.com, @ahmadteausa: www.instagram.com/ahmadteausa

Branden describes the distinction between feel good news and real news, why his company is all about good news, and how  being purpose driven can sustain you through tough times.  For the final recap, Cory takes a look at his interview with Tara Donaldson, Executive Editor of WWD, Founder of The Diversity List, and former Editorial Director of Sourcing Journal.

Fashion media plays a vital role by serving as a bridge between consumers and brands. However, as shoppers look to the media to understand the progress brands are making with sustainability, greenwashing is often perpetuated when journalists report on a brand's sustainability initiatives solely based on a press release that cherrypicks which information to share and often exaggerates claims to paint the brand in the best light. In this episode of Crash Course Fashion, Brittany Sierra chats with Marie Claire Style Director Julia Gall about the role of fashion media in fighting greenwashing, how she balances the needs of the publication (ads, affiliate links, pushing consumption, driving sales, etc.) with her personal ethos of sustainability. Finally, Julia shares her best crash course lessons for pitching the media and getting press. Show Notes: bit.lly/ccf-juliagall

The industry veteran and renown Critic-at-Large at New York Magazine and The Cut discusses how the pandemic has shifted the way journalists cover fashion, signalling an editorial transformation.   LONDON, United Kingdom — For fashion critic Cathy Horyn, the pandemic has ushered in yet another transformation of fashion media. Just like the brands and designers who pivoted and adopted new digital tools to reach buyers and consumers amid show cancellations, publications maximised their online presence to guide the industry at large through a period of upheaval. In the latest episode of The BoF Podcast, Horyn sat down with BoF Editor-at-Large Tim Blanks to discuss reviewing the upcoming shows this month (a mixture of both physical and live events) and her outlook for a post-Covid-19 fashion industry. For Horyn, the media reflects and adapts to the needs of its time. “There’s been incredible [fashion] writers all the way back to the 1830s at least… and they all did something different. Journalists adapted to whatever was going on at that time,” she said. With the advent of the internet and social media, the industry saw the emergence of new voices and new talent. Amid this current period of uncertainty, Horyn remains optimistic that the industry will emerge stronger and transformed. “We’ve seen a lot of experimentation in the last… two months… I think going forward...it’s going to be an adjustment for everybody covering fashion, [but] I certainly think it should be covered.” Will the show go on? This has been one of the questions on the minds of designers across the globe, but with New York Fashion Week given the go ahead (sort of) industry insiders and consumers are in for a fashion week unlike anything ever seen before: a mixture of in-person shows, livestreams, films and virtual panel discussions. What does this mean for journalists, like Horyn, that usually review the collections gracing the runway? “We don’t even know if we’re going to be covering shows like we did till possibly next fall,” she said. “My long-term feelings for the industry are really strong… [fashion] will transform itself but we just don’t know what that’s going to [look like].” For Horyn and other critics, it would be remiss to ignore the allure of the physical runway show. A collection “doesn’t [always] translate so well on television or on a video screen,” Horyn said. But one thing that remains, whether via a screen or in real time, is the “sense of discovery and [realisation] that some of that stuff ... moves the historical needle of fashion and we get to see that,” she said.   Related Articles: The Best-Case, Worst-Case for Fashion Media For Fashion Magazines, It's Crunch Time At Condé Nast and Hearst, It’s About More Than the Current Crisis   Watch and listen to more #BoFLIVE conversations here. To contact The Business of Fashion with comments, questions, or speaker ideas please e-mail podcast@businessoffashion.com.   Sign up for BoF’s Daily Digest newsletter.   Ready to become a BoF Professional?

I love bringing smart, cool and accomplished media people on the Spirit of 608 podcast every once in a while to let us into their world and bring insight into what the people creating coverage and content think about the FEST space (if you've listened to the show for a while, you know this). For this week's episode, I was *so thrilled* to bring a conversation with a longtime journalist and expert in the West Coast's style scene to your ears.  But wait, there's more! The woman you'll hear from today not only lets us into her perspective on independent and ethical fashion right now and, of course, how to pitch someone like her in order to land yourself in publications like Forbes, but she also walks us through why she's moved away from editing well-known sites like Eat, Sleep, Denim to launch her own publication and podcast. And it's not just any media outlet, but one that there is a dire need for: one for women facing 50 without a hint of an interest in doing what society kinda-sorta tells women of a certain age to do these days, i.e. stay quiet and slowly disappear. Listen to the episode for Kristen's story, insights into connecting with contributors to publications like Forbes and how she's bringing women's voices and lifestyle content for 50-ish-and-still-all-kinds-of-alive ladies to readers and listeners without many alternatives.  Meet this week's guest, Kristen Philipkoski, founder of Mean Magazine.  Sign up for the PressDope weekly email to get DIY PR tips and The Dope List of media opps, calls for pitches, FEST events and more ways to raise your visibility.

Julie Zerbo began The Fashion Law while she was still in law school, using it as a way to ground the theory that she was learning in something concrete. Julie’s website originates around the explosion in popularity of fashion blogging. Those who were not formally part of the industry could attempt to carve their own path inwards. Many of these platforms faded into obscurity just as quickly as they began. But the refreshing candor of The Fashion Law, alongside an intense level of rigor for the craft, gained her a significant following who want to see beneath the surface. The Fashion Law reader isn’t satisfied with what meets the eye.

In episode #117 of the Better Than Success Podcast, host Nicole Purvy interviews Claire Sulmers. Ms. Claire Siobhan Sulmers is the founder of FashionBombDaily.com, and the industry’s leading fashion blogger chronicling fashionistas of color. Her pioneering work ushered in a new wave of digital journalism that fed and fueled an under-served community of African-American and Latino style lovers wanting to know more about brand from the culture. Beyond developing and directing content for FashionBomb Daily and its affiliate sites, Sulmers has done extensive style writing for other platforms including Vogue Italia , Vogue Paris , and ESSENCE Magazine. Her body of work and online following - now numbered above one million - has made Ms. Sulmers the influencer of choice for major corporate brands who want to reach her audience including Toyota, Reebok, Verizon, and mother. Ms.Sulmers, who hails from Atlanta, Georgia, holds a degree in French and African American studies from Harvard University. In 11 years, Claire has accumulated over 1.3 million followers, written a book “The Bomb Life”, and is now working on her 2nd book.  How Claire Sulmers built one of the largest multicultural fashion media companies? After going to Harvard University, Claire always knew her passion was in TV and writing. She consciously went to New York after graduation and applied to almost every internship in TV in the city she could and she couldn't land an internship. Claire then had to move back to her home in Atlanta, Georgia with her parents while her dream was not happening the way she thought it would. Not losing faith, Claire then continued her search for internships in her hometown. She sent a sample of her work to an upscale magazine company and was finally offered and unpaid internship. After working with the company for some time, they had an opening in the fashion department and offered her a job writing cover pieces. Although she was grateful for the opportunity, Claire knew her heart was in another place and she denied the position to follow her dreams. Moving on, Claire Sulmer decided to give New York another shot after having some background and she moved to New York. There she was offered internships that were very low paying, but she knew she had to do it. Finding her passion in Fashion, she started her own blog, The Fashion Bomb Daily. Following her career path at the time, she built relationships with other blogs and big companies started to link her. Now, at this time Claire became one of the first bloggers at New York Fashion Week. Claire shares in this interview that she would crash the fashion shows with her professional camera and catch a ton of exclusive shots. Claire then created her job that she has until this day being as though it didn't exist in her early stage of finding her career. At the time, she was still working her job and realized she had to quit and focus on her blog full-time. She shares stories on how long it took (4 years) being in the business and when she was able to finally start making enough money. Another turn hit Claire’s career journey when she decided she wanted to move to Paris. At the time, no one would hire her in Paris because they didn't take her serious being so far away from Paris. She then moved to Paris and lived with a friend of hers mother's apartment. Claire tells the audience how she moved to Paris with no money saved (she even spent all of her 401K savings before moving). She then tells the audience to “ask and you shall receive” after she shared that she asked for a job and went in in for an interview and landed the job...in Paris, she called this a miracle. Moving on, Claire created a path for herself and built one of the largest multicultural fashion media companies by working towards her goals.

Fashion media coverage is a challenging area for any fashion business, but Lorraine Sanders has perfected the process after years of working as a journalist. On this episode of The Successful Fashion Designer, she discusses how to tackle fashion media and press on your own, without the use of a PR firm. She explains 4 key areas that are essential for effective media coverage that positively impacts your bottom line. It’s an episode that will surely get you thinking, and it’s one not to be missed! Outline of This Episode [0:45] Lorraine Sanders is my guest for this episode of The Successful Fashion Designer [4:45] Lorraine shares the stories behind Spirit of 608, FEST brands, and PressDope [10:09] The importance of creating opportunities for yourself in your career [24:13] Build your network of connections before asking for fashion media coverage [31:35] Answer THIS question for more successful fashion media coverage [42:04] Set your media coverage goals and maintain your connections [55:00] This is what it looks like to work with Lorraine’s company, PressDope #1 - Build a solid list of potential publications and writers One drawback to not utilizing a PR firm in fashion media is not having the credibility of the agency to back up your “ask.” Before you can ask a journalist to cover your product or brand, you first need to identify prospective publications that fit into your niche market. Start by building a solid list of those highly targeted people. Building a relationship with potential writers should be your priority long before asking them for coverage. Then, determine what content you’re going to pitch to which writers. Keep in mind that you should always be asking yourself, “What do I want to get out of this press coverage?” If you’re not clear with your fashion media publication goals, you’ll waste time and money without seeing any positive impacts on your bottom line. #2 - Help writers answer this question, “Will my readers think more highly of my publication after publishing this content?” Every writer wants to feel like they’ve “discovered” you. Publications are always looking for the “next best thing” and they want to ensure that the stories they publish are adding value to their publication. When you’re going after highly-targeted writers, if you’re a good fit for the publication, the appropriate fashion media coverage will follow. If the content you’re pitching helps a writer answer the main question of “Will my readers think more highly of my publication after publishing this content?” they’re more likely to focus on your product or brand. To hear more insights on why focusing on the right content is critical to fashion media success, don’t miss this episode of The Successful Fashion Designer. #3 - Create credibility for your brand, even if you’re not working with a PR agency Even if you choose to pursue media coverage on your own, without the use of a PR agency, you CAN create credibility for your small brand! This is achieved by focusing on a number of key areas: Professional, on-brand social media accounts Publishing on third-party platforms such as Medium Having engaged digital followers Publishing your founder’s story, creating quality original content, and demonstrating that you’re active in the industry can also show potential writers and publications that your brand is a force to be reckoned with and deserves media coverage. Don’t miss even more tips, listen now! #4 - Follow up and maintain your fashion media coverage connections It’s simply not enough to have a few great press coverage events or product launches. It’s essential to maintain your relationships with fashion media contacts in between major quarterly events or product unveilings. Continue the conversation with your hard-earned connections! Consider smaller events such as minor product launches once per month, and don’t forget to send out thank-you notes for previous media pieces! If you plan your entire fashion media coverage process months in advance, you’ll keep your schedule and your sanity in order.

Dr Rosie Findlay and Rosalind Jana in conversation with Dr Agnès Rocamora Personal style blogs have attracted much interest since they first began populating the blogosphere in the mid-2000s. The possibilities the form offers individuals to style a commercial and creative selfhood has led to much scholarly debate as well as media criticism. Yet while style blogs provide a stage for the performance of a styled self, they also afford an intimate space for the public thinking-through of a self becoming. The affective dimensions of this practice as well as the kinds of bodily labour and performance it entails form the focus of this unique event, presented collaboratively by the Cultural and Historical Studies Hub and the Fashion Media and Imagery Hub at LCF. Taking as their starting point Dr Rosie Findlay’s new book Personal Style Blogs: Appearances that Fascinate, Dr Findlay and Rosalind Jana, digital editor of Violet magazine, writer and style blogger whose experiences are featured in the book, will discuss their own experiences of blogging and digital intimacy in conversation with Dr Agnès Rocamora, Reader in Social and Cultural Studies at LCF.
