Recorded inside the Georgian House, just days before the exhibition Ramsay & Edinburgh Fashion opened its doors, the trio talk about the artist Allan Ramsay and the women behind the paintings. What was life like for someone at the centre of the Scottish Enlightenment? Who were his patrons? And what do his paintings tell us about the role of fashion among the Georgian movers and shakers?

"My lady's corselet" was developed by a pioneer of free verse on the frontlines of feminism, the poet Mina Loy. Celebrated in the 1910s as the quintessential New Woman, her love of freedom was shadowed by a darker quest to perfect the female body, as her unusual designs for a figure-correcting corset show. Sophie Oliver asks how she fits into a history of body-correcting garments and cosmetic surgery, feminism and fashion. Working on both sides of the Atlantic writing poetry and designing bonkers body-altering garments: like a bracelet for office workers with a built-in ink blotter, or her ‘corselet' to correct curvature of the spine in women - in the end Mina Loy couldn't stop time, and her late-life poetry is full of old clothes and outcast people from the Bowery, as she reckons with – and celebrates – the fact that she has become unfashionable.

Cette semaine je reçois Inès Matsika, podcasteuse, et journaliste à la tête de son propre média, The Fashion Stories. J'ai rencontré Inès quelques jours seulement après la parution du nouveau Vogue France, qui affiche fièrement en Une Aya Nakamura, une femme noire, populaire, puissante, qui casse les codes de ce magazine. Alors avec Inès nous avons essayé d'analyser ce choix éditorial, nous avons aussi parlé de la place des corps noirs dans la mode, et de la place accordée à la création africaine. Car Inès cherche, à travers son média, à mieux raconter les modes africaines. Et le pluriel à toute son importance, vous l'entendrez dans cet épisode. Je vous souhaite une très belle écoute ! —— Mixage : Thomas Lenglain

Books are an inherent part of my life. I literally eat books. And when I can find books mixing fashion and history, I am the happiest on Earth! Especially if the book features quality content and beautiful imagery.

Hi there! And welcome to My Fashion Stories Box podcast! A podcast about stories in fashion history. I'm Catherine and I am so glad to welcome you here! Let's discover together interesting facts about fashion and history and fashion history. In our today's episode, I will talk about some practices people have been using through the ages to wear and pass along their clothing possessions. From the Middle Ages and its detachable sleeves to the rationing coupons during the Second World War and the 2nd hand fever of the 70s, follow me in a short story of sustainable fashion in history.

National fashion editor has to be up there as one of the dreamiest job titles. Throw in The Age and Sydney Morning Herald as your employer, and you’re in heaven, right? I got to ask Melly Singer just that when this super glamorous, super talented human joined me to talk about product PR in fashion, pitching timelines, online versus print and so much more. Melly has worked everywhere from glossy magazines to community news, but the majority of her career has been spent with the publisher of The Age and SMH (previously Fairfax, now Nine). She’s been a Sunday news editor, a consumer affairs reporter, a deputy news editor, and then she created her dream role for herself: fashion editor of The Age. It’s fair to say Melly knows a thing or two about pitching a good idea. In our conversation we talked about why she loves the storytelling element in fashion journalism, the reason a mass email is an immediate turn-off for Melly and why she thinks fewer product events in a post-Covid world might actually be a good thing. We also touched on the DNA of a good image library (tip: fewer is sometimes better!), Melly’s love of a good pop culture deep-dive with a side of fashion, and how you and your brand can get Melly’s attention with a newsy hook.

Love & Peace or maybe more Peace & Love and Make love not war. Thus were the slogans of the Hippies in the 70s. But do you know how everything started and the influence it had on fashion? In our today's podcast, we will travel in time during Summer 1967 also known as The Summer of Love.

Modeskapare och kläddesigner som i 30 år skapat unika kreationer till kungligheter och artister. Om den udda pojken från Västerås som hamnade i de stora sammanhangen. Passion för strass och couture Lars Wallin har varit designer i 30 år och passar på att intervjua sig själv i sitt Sommar. Han svarar först på snabbfrågor, men går sen in på när han intresserade sig för kläddesign, hur han ritar och ger exempel på uppdrag som han har haft. Lars berättar också om sin utställning Lars Wallin Fashion stories. Lars Wallin kommenterar också modeindustin som en av de största miljöbovarna idag. -Jag vill lägga största ansvaret på lågprisindustrin. Deras filosofi är att producera så mycket som möjligt, så billigt som möjligt. Dom har lurat oss att tro att vi inte har råd med kvalitet, och jobbat stenhårt med att sätta likhetstecken mellan billigt och bra. Till sist berättar Lars om hur han blev mobbad i skolan så att han till och med hamnade på sjukhus. Han tänker att om vi alla får och ger kärlek så blir världen en bättre plats. Om Lars Wallin Modeskapare, 54 år. Född i Västerås, bosatt i Stockholm. Debuterar som Sommarvärd. Har arbetat som kläddesigner i 30 år och skapat unika kreationer till kungligheter och artister. Designat Kronprinsessan Victorias klänningar till flera Nobelfester, Petra Medes klänningar till finalen i Eurovision Song Contest 2016 och kostymerna till Kungliga Operans uppsättning av Gustav III. Modeutställningen Fashion Stories med kreationer från hela hans karriär har turnerat runt om i landet. Har fått Damernas Världs pris Guldknappen. Designar även smycken och lanserade förra året en kollektion för en bredare publik. Mitt Sommarprat kommer att handla om den udda pojken från Västerås som tog sig till Stockholm och så småningom hamnade i de stora sammanhangen. Om arbetet i ateljén. Om slow fashion och hur modebranschen har förändrats. Om passion, kreativitet och drivkraft. Om tvivel och drömmar. Producent: Samuel Åhman

"By walking, we connect with the Earth" - Satish Kumar. Towards the end of 2016 two friends from Melbourne, Megan O’Malley and Gab Murphy went out for a walk. A year later, they made it home. Calling themselves Walk Sew Goodthey went on a epic adventure - walking 3,500 kilometres through Souh East Asia to collect and share stories from some of the people who make our clothes. They met with and interviewed more than 50 different people and organisations, made videos and wrote a blogs - and made friends. When they set out, Meg was a fashion fan, Gab not so much. How did they change, and what did they learn? And what's it really like to walk for 8-hours every day? This show was recorded live at the Planet Talks at the WOMADelaide festival, and it's the first of a Series of 4 Episodes celebrating Fashion Revolution Week, featuring stories about #whomademyclothes and how we can fashion a more sustainable fashion future.

Nya Vågen om modets plats i konstens finrum och Ruben Östlunds nya film Play. Kulturarv eller PR? Det senaste året har modeutställningarna tagit över svenska museer - nu senast Lars Wallin-utställningen Fashion Stories på Waldermarsudde i Stockholm. Modeutställningarna lockar den åtråvärda unga publiken och slår besöksrekord efter rekord. Men motsvarar boomen innehållet - eller är det främst en mjölkkossa för museerna? Ted Hesselbom, chef för Röhsska museet samtalar med modejournalisten Salka Hallström Bornold.   Dessutom: om en månad har Ruben Östlunds film Play svensk premiär. Redan när den visades i Cannes i våras väckte den debatt - kritiska röster menar att filmen kan kidnappas av främlingsfientliga krafter. I Nya Vågen diskuterar Ruben Östlund tillsammans med kulturjournalisten Gabriel Byström och dramatikern America Vera Zavala beröringsskräcken i svensk konst, och vilket ansvar konstnären har för debatten.   Panelen består den här veckan av Mia Gerdin, Gabriel Byström och Ruben Östlund. Programmet sänds från Göteborg. Programledare: Malin Sandberg.
