What knowledge exists about medieval peasants and their lives? How do we know what we know?In this episode, Elías Carballido González explores various historical approaches to thinking about the peasantry, considers the state of the field in the present day, and discusses a handful of examples with a focus on northwest Iberia.For more information about Elías, medieval peasants, or this podcast, visit www.multiculturalmiddleages.com.
Most of us don't grow up across the street from a chemistry building or know from an early age that we want to be a scientist, but Alan Dyke, VP of Business Development for ProChem, Inc. (CTO of Boulder Scientific Company at the time of the interview) did and became a chemist. Dr. Alan Dyke, former colleague, and friend of Paolo's, shares his career path and discusses the history and current state of the field of catalysis. With a father that taught university-level chemistry, and a brother in the field, it may not be surprising that Alan Dyke became a chemist, but it is surprising is that he's considered to be the outcast of the family for choosing a commercial career instead of taking an academic route. But, as he'll passionately reveal, there are upsides to choosing a non-academic career. Join us for a wonderful conversation where Paolo and Alan recount their shared history and the evolution of the catalysis field over recent decades. They discuss the evolution of homogeneous cross-coupling, biocatalysis, metathesis, and metallocene chemistry. Application of catalysis to fields as varied as pharmaceuticals and polymers is discussed, along with sustainability and other trends and dynamics in the field.

ABOUT JULIE DE AZEVEDO HANKSWEBSITE: https://www.drjuliehanks.com/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/drjuliehanks Dr. Julie Hanks, PhD, LCSW. is a licensed therapist, coach, author, relationship expert, media contributor, blogger, speaker, and performing songwriter with 28 years experience counseling women, couples and families. In addition to owning Wasatch Family Therapy, LLC and serving as executive director, Dr. Hanks is an emotional health and relationship expert and top online mental health influencer with an extensive and engaged social media following. As sought after media personality Dr. Hanks' advice has been interviewed for The Wall Street Journal, Cosmopolitan, Women's Day, Parenting, Reader's Digest, Redbook, and numerous other publications, and has appeared on-camera on Fox News, Fox Business News, KSL TV's Studio 5, Discovery Health, TLC, and Reelz Channel. After speaking to large women's groups of Latter-day Saint women on preventing emotional burnout for a decade and working with hundreds of women in her clinical practice who were overwhelmed and felt “never good enough”, Dr. Hanks felt compelled to write her first book The Burnout Cure: An Emotional Survival Guide for Overwhelmed Women. Her latest book The Assertiveness Guide for Women: How to Communicate Your Needs, Set Healthy Boundaries, and Transform Your Relationships draws from her years of clinical practice helping women to find their authentic voice in their lives, their relationships, and in the world. Grounded in attachment theory, this self-help book takes a comprehensive view of assertiveness and is filled with exercises and practical advice. As an award-winning performing songwriter, “Julie de Azevedo” has written dozens of songs, contributed to numerous projects, and produced 10 solo CD's over the past 30 years. Her most recent CD “The Gravity of Love” is a digital EP of 6 new songs about relationships. Dr. Hanks' most valuable experience has been “in the trenches” of family life as a wife to Jeff Hanks and mother of 4 children, 1 daughter-in-law, and 2 grandchildren. MORE ABOUT THIS EPISODE:Paul begins by engaging in a conversation with Dr. Julie De Azevedo Hanks, who balanced her career as a recording artist with her pursuit of a Ph.D. in therapy. She specializes in working with clients who are Latter-day Saints or have connections to the LDS culture, assisting them in addressing social issues and ensuring their beliefs are applied in a healthy manner to avoid any harm caused by theology.Dr. Hanks responds to Paul's inquiry about why people from other faiths often perceive Mormons as exceptionally kind individuals with strong family values. They delve into the social dynamics within the predominantly homogeneous culture, particularly in Utah, where a substantial LDS population exists. Paul briefly touches upon the history of Mormons facing persecution, such as the extermination order issued by Missouri against the religious sect. He inquires about the possibility of a generational persecution complex. Dr. Hanks doesn't attribute it to a fear of persecution, but rather to a sense of familiarity. She notes that Latter-day Saints have demanding responsibilities and suggests that Mormons should openly communicate their values to friends and neighbors to establish mutual understanding of their boundaries and commitments.Paul highlights the unique aspect of the LDS Church, where individuals are actively assigned roles, integrated into small groups, and are actively involved in the community, unlike in most other churches where members need to initiate their participation. He emphasizes the absence of monetary compensation within the LDS Church and how this communal involvement provides a strong support system for every family. Dr. Hanks commends this support system and the sense of safety it fosters, with mentors guiding the youth in their service and teaching roles.The conversation shifts to the historical practice of polygamy within the Mormon community and its association with women's disenfranchisement and objectification during that era. They discuss the belief in eternal marriage, emphasizing that it lasts forever.Dr. Hanks and Paul delve into the declining church activity, which saw families conducting religious services at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. They also discuss the impact of scientific discoveries addressing questions that were traditionally considered mysteries of God in religious contexts. The internet is mentioned as a tool enabling individuals to research the controversial aspects of the Mormon faith's history. Paul queries Dr. Hanks about the possibility of people finding truth and happiness outside of the Mormon culture. She admits to being molded within the LDS faith but believes that truth can be found everywhere. Paul then questions whether Mormons are considered Christians, to which Dr. Hanks recalls being told she wasn't a Christian while attending a private evangelical school as a child. Lastly, Paul inquires about Dr. Hanks' perspective on the salvation of individuals who leave the Mormon faith or have family members who do so. She expresses her belief in the vastness of God's mercy and encourages avoiding placing limits on salvation for those whose experiences are different.

Ian Pocock is MD of Research & Service Design at Transform. In this wide-ranging discussion, Ian shares his views on how product teams should always maintain a diverse outlook to avoid falling into the trap of (re)creating homogenous products; we chat about the importance of maintaining an endlessly user-centred mindset; and he shares his experiences of using Lego within workshops as a way to powerfully unlock organisational hierarchies and democratise the design process. Finally, he plays my 3 card challenge to share his favourite UX tool, favourite technique and a trend he sees in the future. Thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoy the episode.

How can brands differentiate themselves while remaining intuitive and familiar to consumers? Are your car, phone, or shoes an outward sign of your personality? What is leading to the trend of odd-ball, zany web designs? Different but FamiliarWhen it comes to experiencing a brand, the desire for something more than utilitarian varies from person to person“You're expecting certain types of content to be delivered in a specific way. And that's part of the attraction is for it to be this really intuitive, familiar experience. So I sort of put that to the side and think about DTC sites and retailer sites as having a lot more scope for variation and a different experience.” - Kiri Masters“There needs to be a balance between solving the homogenization issue and solving the problem of differentiation or distinction, and still being able to be intuitive, still being able to get your consumer to do the flow {from discory to checkout}.” - Roger Figeuiredo“It's really tough to stand out but not stand out so far that you're doing something unintuitive.” - Ben Marks“That discovery and awareness stage of the funnel is where there's a real opportunity to be different. And after that, you kind of want to bring it back to what's normal.” - Kiri MastersMaybe visual design inspiration coming from some of the same places contributes to such boredom online because too many brands are overusing trends rather than being original“You build your mood board, and you're going to go to other brands and you build your mood board off of other brands, and naturally is just going to lead to more of the same.” - Roger Figeuiredo“When you're building your mood board for the look and feel, maybe don't go look at other brands. Look for analogies in design. Then build your mood board off of things that are maybe real life stuff instead of other websites.” - Roger Figeuiredo“Don't do what your competitors, people in your category are doing, do things differently from the start. And you will be more likely to have a less boring, homogenized experience.” - Ben MarksHas Shopify both helped and harmed the growth of eCommerce?

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Voting Theory Introduction, published by Scott Garrabrant on October 17, 2022 on LessWrong. Sequence Introduction This is the first post in a sequence in which I will propose a new voting system! In this post, I introduce the framework and notation, and give some background on voting theory. In the next post, I will show you the best voting system you've probably never heard of, maximal lotteries. (Seriously, it's really good.) After that, I will make it even better, and propose a new system: maximal lottery-lotteries. Then comes the bad news: I can't prove that maximal lottery-lotteries exist! (Or alternatively, good news: You can try to solve a cool new open problem in voting theory!) Thanks to Jessica Taylor for first introducing me to maximal lotteries, and Sam Eisenstat for spending many hours with me trying to prove the existence of maximal lottery-lotteries. Generalizing Voting Theory A voting system is a function that takes in a distribution on utility functions on a set of candidates, and produces a distribution on that set of candidates. This is not what a voting theorist will tell you a voting system is. That is because they like to make a bunch of extra assumptions: The set of candidates is finite. The function only uses the preorders on candidates implied by the utility functions. The output distribution assigns probability 1 to a single candidate. The input distribution is the uniform distribution on some finite set. I am going to play along with some of these assumptions, but I want my types and notation to treat them as explicit assumptions, so I will use notation that will make it easy to remove these assumptions as needed. Technically, I also make one assumption that voting theorists usually don't make. That is that the voting system is homogeneous. Homogeneous voting systems are only a function of what proportion of voters have each preference, not on the absolute number of voters that have each preference. Thus, when I said the input was a distribution on utility functions, rather than a multi-set of utility functions, I threw out the information that would have allowed for non-homogeneous voting systems. I don't know of any seriously proposed voting systems that are non-homogeneous, so this is not a significant extra assumption. Throughout the sequence, I will take for granted that all voting systems are homogeneous. Assumption 2 is most likely to be violated by voting theorists, as in approval voting and range voting. Next is 3, and there is a small subset of voting theorists who think about non-determinism. Assumption 4 is not very important, and while it is usually made, it also usually does not matter. Assumption 1 is almost never violated, or at least when it is, the field is called something other than voting theory. A utility function on a set S is just a function from S[0,1]. I will write Δ(S) for the set of distributions on the set S. (I'm not going to worry about the sigma algebras; usually it will be obvious/not matter.) If f is a voting system, C is a set of candidates, and V∈Δ(C[0,1]) is a distribution on utility functions on C, I will write fC(V) for the output of the voting system on V, so fC(V)∈Δ(C). Some Important Criteria To get more comfortable with this formalism, we will translate three important voting criteria. Condorcet Criterion If a candidate would defeat all others in one-on-one elections, that candidate should win. Translated to our formalism, f satisfies the Condorcet criterion if whenever there exists a c∈C such that for all d∈C, we have Pv∼V(v(c)>v(d))>12, we havefC(V)(c)=1. We can think of Pv∼V(v(c)>v(d)) as saying when we randomly choose a voter v, what is the probability that v prefers c to d. If this probability is greater than 12, then a majority of voters prefer c to d. Consistency Criterion If two disjoint el...

Assumption 1 is almost never violated, or at least when it is, the field is called something other than voting theory. A utility function on a set S is just a function from S[0,1]. I will write Δ(S) for the set of distributions on the set S. (I'm not going to worry about the sigma algebras; usually it will be obvious/not matter.) If f is a voting system, C is a set of candidates, and V∈Δ(C[0,1]) is a distribution on utility functions on C, I will write fC(V) for the output of the voting system on V, so fC(V)∈Δ(C). Some Important Criteria To get more comfortable with this formalism, we will translate three important voting criteria. Condorcet Criterion If a candidate would defeat all others in one-on-one elections, that candidate should win. Translated to our formalism, f satisfies the Condorcet criterion if whenever there exists a c∈C such that for all d∈C, we have Pv∼V(v(c)>v(d))>12, we havefC(V)(c)=1. We can think of Pv∼V(v(c)>v(d)) as saying when we randomly choose a voter v, what is the probability that v prefers c to d. If this probability is greater than 12, then a majority of voters prefer c to d. Consistency Criterion If two disjoint el...
All links and images for this episode can be found on CISO Series If you want to build a successful cybersecurity team, you need to be diverse, mostly in thought. But that diversity in thought usually is the result of people with diverse backgrounds who have had different experiences and have solved problems differently. It's actually really hard to hire a diverse team because what you want to do is simply hire people who look, talk, and sound like you. People who come from the same background as you. While that may work for building friends, it's not necessarily the best solution when building a team to secure your company. This week's episode is hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series and Andy Ellis (@csoandy), operating partner, YL Ventures. Our guest is George Finney (@wellawaresecure), CISO, Southern Methodist University and author of “Well Aware: The Nine Cybersecurity Habits to Protect Your Future” and "Project Zero Trust."

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Abstracting The Hardness of Alignment: Unbounded Atomic Optimization, published by Adam Shimi on July 29, 2022 on The AI Alignment Forum. This work has been done while at Conjecture Disagree to Agree (Practically-A-Book Review: Yudkowsky Contra Ngo On Agents, Scott Alexander, 2022) This is a weird dialogue to start with. It grants so many assumptions about the risk of future AI that most of you probably think both participants are crazy. (Personal Communication about a conversation with Evan Hubinger, John Wentworth, 2022) We'd definitely rank proposals very differently, within the "good" ones, but we both thought we'd basically agree on the divide between "any hope at all" and "no hope at all". The question dividing the "any hope at all" proposals from the "no hope at all" is something like... does this proposal have any theory of change? Any actual model of how it will stop humanity from being wiped out by AI? Or is it just sort of... vaguely mood-affiliating with alignment? If there's one thing alignment researchers excel at, it's disagreeing with each other. I dislike the term pre paradigmatic, but even I must admit that it captures one obvious feature of the alignment field: the constant debates about the what and the how and the value of different attempts. Recently, we even had a whole sequence of debates, and since I first wrote this post Nate shared his take on why he can't see any current work in the field actually tackling the problem. More generally, the culture of disagreement and debate and criticism is obvious to anyone reading the AF. Yet Scott Alexander has a point: behind all these disagreements lies so much agreement! Not only in discriminating the "any hope at all" proposals from the "no hope at all", as in John's quote above; agreement also manifests itself in the common components of the different research traditions, for example in their favorite scenarios. When I look at Eliezer's FOOM, at Paul's What failure looks like, at Critch's RAAPs, and at Evan's Homogeneous takeoffs, the differences and incompatibilities jump to me — yet they still all point in the same general direction. So much so that one can wonder if a significant part of the problem lies outside of the fine details of these debates. In this post, I start from this hunch — deep commonalities — and craft an abstraction that highlights it: unbounded atomic optimization (abbreviated UAO and pronounced wow). That is, alignment as the problem of dealing with impact on the world (optimization) that is both of unknown magnitude (unbounded) and non-interruptible (atomic). As any model, it is necessarily mistaken in some way; I nonetheless believe it to be a productive mistake, because it reveals both what we can do without the details and what these details give us when they're filled in. As such, UAO strikes me as a great tool for epistemological vigilance. I first present UAO in more details; then I show its use as a mental tool by giving four applications: (Convergence of AI Risk) UAO makes clear that the worries about AI Risk don't come from one particular form of technology or scenario, but from a general principle which we're pushing towards in a myriad of convergent ways. (Exploration of Conditions for AI Risk) UAO is only a mechanism; but it's abstraction makes it helpful to study what conditions about the world and how we apply optimization lead to AI Risk (Operationalization Pluralism) UAO, as an abstraction of the problem, admits many distinct operationalizations. It's thus a great basis on which to build operationalization pluralism. (Distinguishing AI Alignment) Last but not least, UAO answers Alex Flint's question about the difference between aligning AIs and aligning other entities (like a society). Thanks to TJ, Alex Flint, John Wentworth, Connor Leahy, Kyle McDonell, Lari...
In this episode of the Competition Authority's CompCast - Competition Talks, Hans Zenger, Head of Unit at the Chief Economist Team of the European Commission's DG Competition, addresses the topic “Mergers with homogeneous markets”.
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Why you might expect homogeneous take-off: evidence from ML research, published by Andrei Alexandru on July 17, 2022 on The AI Alignment Forum. This write-up was produced as part of the SERI MATS programme under Evan Hubinger's mentorship. It is also my first post on LW, so feedback is very welcome! Introduction This article aims to draw a connection between recent ML research and the claim that future advanced AI systems may be homogenous. First, I briefly review this article, where the idea of homogenous take-off is introduced. Then, I outline two different arguments why you might update in the direction of homogenous take-off. For each of the arguments I mention key uncertainties that I have about the argument itself, as well as broader open questions. TL; DR I present two reasons to believe that as models become larger they also become more homogenous, i.e. they behave more similarly to each other: Variance between models behaves unimodally in the overparameterised regime: it peaks around the interpolation threshold, then decreases monotonically. Decreased variance means that models make similar predictions across different training runs (captured as variance from initialisation) and different sampling of the training data (variance from sampling); Neural networks have a strong simplicity bias even before training, which might mean that multiple training runs with different hyperparameters, initialisation schemes etc. result in essentially the same model. I've somewhat updated in the direction of homogenous take-off as a result of these arguments, though I think that there are still ways in which it's unclear if e.g. decreasing variance with size rules out heterogeneity. What's homogeneous take-off? There are several axes along which different AI takeoff scenarios could differ: speed, continuity, and number of main actors. Homogeneity vs. heterogeneity in AI takeoff scenarios introduces a new way to look at a potential take-off, through the lens of model homogeneity. Homogeneity intuitively refers to how similar models are at any given time given some definition of similarity. We might specifically refer to homogeneity with regards to alignment, which, again intuitively, means “models are more or less aligned to the same degree” (or: “aligned models will not coexist with unaligned models”). More formally we mean something like models having similar properties, e.g. alignment properties. In my mind, an alignment property might be something like “corrigibility” or “truthfulness”, though it's unclear to me to what extent two models which are, say, truthful, are also homogenous. I think working toward a clearer, more precise definition of homogeneity is probably useful in determining what actually counts as evidence for homogenous systems being more likely, though I don't try to do so in this write-up. The article sets out a list of arguments supporting the idea of homogenous take-off, which I parse as “evidence from the economics of large scale machine learning”. Without going into too much detail – I recommend reading the original article for the full arguments –, these are: Training a model is more expensive than running it. This is a relatively straightforward claim which extrapolates from the landscape we have today, where some large language models reportedly have had training budgets in the millions of US dollars, with comparatively little cost to run inference/serve the models themselves once trained. Training models from scratch is not competitive once the first advanced system is released. To me this follows from 1., in the sense that if it is economically useful to deploy more than one model simultaneously, it's likely that the additional models will be copies of the original (perhaps fine-tuned on different tasks) rather than new models trained from scrat...

Modern humans evolved in Africa and successfully colonised the globe only in the last 100,000 years or so, a feat made possible by cultural and genetic adaptation. Human habitats differ dramatically in climate, available foods or pathogens, and genetic adaptation was mediated both by mutation and by interbreeding with archaic humans such as Neanderthals and Denisovans. Besides representing a mark of our past, these adaptations contribute to diversity in living people in traits such as skin colour and immune function.A lecture by Dr Aida AndrésThe transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website:https://www.gresham.ac.uk/whats-on/human-adaptation-archiveGresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597.

What's cancer got to do with crabs, artist Jackson Pollock, and artificial intelligence? It's not a riddle; these are some of the things we'll explore with surgeon Grant Stewart, computer scientist Mateja Jamnik and radiologist Evis Sala from the Mark Foundation Institute for Integrated Cancer Medicine.In this episode, we'll discover how artificial intelligence is making it easier for doctors to diagnose and treat cancer and we'll share some cancer facts that are both amazing and disturbing. We also learn about the WIRE clinical trial for kidney cancer. WIRE evaluates the effectiveness of giving a short course of drug treatment to patients in the one-month “window of opportunity” between diagnosis and surgery. Patients on the WIRE trial also undergo a suite of new imaging techniques that have been brought together for the first time globally in this clinical trial.This episode was produced by Nick Saffell, James Dolan, Naomi Clements-Brod and Annie Thwaite.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 31, 2022 is: homogeneous • hoh-muh-JEEN-yus • adjective Homogeneous means "of the same or a similar kind or nature." // The downtown area has a homogeneous population, which makes implementing programs that target needs easier. See the entry > Examples: "A lot has changed for the better for the LGBTQ+ community since the 2015 Supreme Court decision in Obergefell v. Hodges…. LGBTQ+ individuals who live in rural or more homogeneous populations can more easily see and connect with people who understand them." — Carrie Vittitoe, Today's Woman, October 2021 Did you know? Homogeneous comes from the Greek roots hom-, meaning "same," and genos, meaning "kind." The similar word homogenous is a synonym of the same origin.
I'm being asked more frequently for simple exercises that help with embodying Unity / Oneness. The main part of this challenge is distilling it into relatable ELI5 'normie' speak which has greater efficacy with landing into the hearts of the masses and catalyzing Global Awakening. This specific exercise involves dissolving the artificial boundary between all of God / The Creator's Points of View. The most important & practical reason for doing this exercise is because abiding in the God-View more regularly is the ROOT upstream solution to catalyzing the most downstream harmony & flourishing as a collective. Getting a little more technical, you could call this "The Diamond Fractal View." Diamond because each Point of View is Always Already Perfect and Fractal because Points of View are Self-Similar, the Pattern Clearly Repeats. I'll keep working on refining this skill & passing along exercises. Please let me know how this exercise goes for you in the comments below. Infinite Love!

R., Goni, F., Dobson, C. M., Cremades, N. Abstract: -Synuclein amyloid self-assembly is the hallmark of a number of neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease, although there is still very limited understanding about the factors and mechanisms that trigger this process. Primary nucleation has been observed to be initiated in vitro at hydrophobic/hydrophilic interfaces by heterogeneous nucleation generating parallel {beta}-sheet aggregates, although no such interfaces have yet been identified in vivo. In this work, we have discovered that -synuclein can self-assemble into amyloid aggregates by homogeneous nucleation, without the need of an active surface, and with a preference for an antiparallel {beta}-sheet arrangement. This particular structure has been previously proposed to be distinctive of stable toxic oligomers and we here demonstrate that it indeed represents the most stable structure of the preferred amyloid pathway triggered by homogeneous nucleation under limited hydration conditions, including those encountered inside -synuclein droplets generated by liquid-liquid phase separation. In addition, our results highlight the key role that water plays not only in modulating the transition free energy of amyloid nucleation, and thus governing the initiation of the process, but also in dictating the type of preferred primary nucleation and the type of amyloid polymorph generated depending on the extent of protein hydration. These findings are particularly relevant in the context of in vivo -synuclein aggregation where the protein can encounter a variety of hydration conditions in different cellular microenvironments, including the vicinity of lipid membranes or the interior of membraneless compartments, which could lead to the formation of remarkably different amyloid polymorphs by either heterogeneous or homogeneous nucleation.

If you’re a nonprofit leader or fundraising professional, you’re not going to want to miss this week's first podcast conversation. Today, we’re talking with Tiffany Williams, founder of TJ Marie Consulting and GivlyApp, about whether a nonprofit with a historically homogeneous culture can redeem itself in today's climate. Neither of us hold back sharing our personal and professional experiences, and contemplating just how long until and to what extent we can expect to arrive at meaningful change. Tiffany brings a breadth of experience which includes The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, Florida A&M University, the LGBT Chamber of Commerce of Illinois, and the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture. Tiffany's newest endeavor, Givly. recently launched its giving and donor engagement platform, designed to harness the philanthropic spirit of young donors and make it easier for nonprofits to engage with their donors.

Vienne Cheung Brown is the founder of VienneMilano, a luxury hosiery brand dedicated to thigh high stockings that are made in Italy. Founded in 2011, Vienne transitioned her previous work in high tech product management to designing, distributing, and managing a fashion e-commerce brand. Since childhood, Vienne traveled throughout Europe and Asia, always bringing home fashion accessories not directly available in the USA, such as fine Italian hosiery. Frustrated by the lack of selection of high-quality thigh highs in the U.S., Vienne realized that this would be an opportunity to serve and to empower women with luxury hosiery. Combining an education in fine arts, business, and a passion for bringing products to life, from concept to market, Vienne gathered the skills to launch the very first luxury hosiery brand dedicated to thigh high stockings sold exclusively online. Today, VienneMilano has helped redefine thigh highs as a fashion category. The collection offers one of the world's most extensive variety for thigh high stockings consisting of classic styles, fashion-forward pieces, skin tone matching sheers, eco-friendly stockings, plus sizes, and much more. The brand has expanded from being sold exclusively from VienneMilano.com to distributing to many online distribution channels and brick and mortar outlets. VienneMilano has also been featured on FOX, New York Fashion Week, and Spark and Hustle by Tory of Good Morning America and has been a popular accessory for celebrities and magazines in photo shoots across the world. https://www.viennemilano.com/
