French fashion designer
POPULARITY
When sci-fi movies take a big swing in depicting futuristic fashion, sometimes they end up creating iconic outfits and other times they create fashion which looks laughably outdated in a few years. I've became fascinated by three fashion designers whose work took center stage in sci-fi films and transcended the films themselves. I talk with fashion historians and authors Raissa Bretaña and Thèresa Winge about the influence of Paco Rabanne on Barbarella, the work of Jean-Paul Gaultier on The Fifth Element and the way Alexander McQueen was influenced by dystopian sci-fi, which informed the McQueen style in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Each of these collaborations left a lasting impact on cinema and fashion, from the runway to the shopping mall. Thèresa's book Fashion Adventures in Science Fiction Cinema comes out in December.

Certains couturiers ont la chance de moderniser des maisons appartenant à des groupes de luxe, comme Duran Lantink qui s'inspire, pour Jean-Paul Gaultier, de sa période costumes de ballet. Les maisons indépendantes doivent, elles, créer ex-nihilo. Iris van Herpen fait appel à la science et crée une robe de plasma. Rahul Mishra emprunte la beauté des déesses hindoues. Imane Ayissi rend hommage à sa maman Miss Indépendance Cameroun 1960. Kevin Germanier continue, lui, de célébrer le recyclage.
Some couturiers get to modernise houses owned by luxury groups. Among them is Duran Lantink, who draws on Jean Paul Gaultier's ballet-costume era for his inspiration. Independent houses, by contrast, must create from scratch. Iris van Herpen turns to science. Rahul Mishra finds inspiration in the beauty of Hindu goddesses. Imane Ayissi pays tribute to his late mother. Finally, Kevin Germanier keeps celebrating the most desirable approach to recycling imaginable.
C'est un art que l'on retrouve dans plusieurs régions du monde, vieux de plusieurs siècles, et pourtant peu à peu oublié : celui de la plumasserie – ou le fait de transformer des plumes en objets d'ornement, parures, vêtements et autres créations époustouflantes. En France, cet art connaît aujourd'hui un renouveau, grâce notamment au travail de Nelly Saunier, passée maître d'art et dont les créations peuplent, en ce moment, le château de Josselin en Bretagne et le musée du Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac à Paris. Ce qui frappe d'abord dans l'atelier de Nelly Saunier, c'est cette immense bibliothèque de près de 6 mètres de haut, où s'empilent des dizaines de boîtes. Seulement ici, pas de livres : que des plumes ! « Je serais incapable de dire combien il y en a, réfléchit Nelly Saunier. Mais je sais qu'il y a ici 350 boîtes de plumes, et qu'elles sont toutes relativement pleines. » Comprendre : il y a ici des milliers de plumes, de toutes les formes, de toutes les tailles, de toutes les textures et de toutes les couleurs, qu'il lui faut sourcer, laver, trier, puis déployer dans leur écrin en attendant de pouvoir les utiliser. Un univers quasi-magique dont cette plumassière ne se lasse pas : « C'est une passion sans fin, sourit cette pétillante sexagénaire. Même aujourd'hui, je suis toujours surprise par ce que les oiseaux ont à offrir. Il y a une infinité de couleurs, de textures, de nuances… » Plus de quarante ans après ses débuts, Nelly Saunier a toujours des étoiles dans les yeux pour parler de son métier. Une vocation découverte dès l'adolescence Pour la plumassière, la révélation s'impose à 14 ans, comme « une évidence » : « Je cherchais un métier, quelque chose que je puisse faire de mes mains. J'ai choisi la plumasserie, qui me reliait à mon univers d'enfance, c'est-à-dire les arbres et les oiseaux. » Peu à peu, Nelly Saunier apprend à donner une seconde vie aux plumes qui l'émerveillent tant, et à les « transcender » en leur donnant une nouvelle forme : vêtements, cadrans de montre, parures de bijoux, chapeaux et autres trompe-l'œil. Pour ce faire, elle manie expertement les cinq outils principaux du plumassier : un couteau tranchant, un couteau émoussé – « pour faire friser les plumes » –, des ciseaux, un réglet et une pince. Même si, ajoute-t-elle avec une pointe de malice, « l'art de la plume permet d'être créatif et d'inventer ses propres outils, ses propres façons de faire. » Seulement voilà, à l'issue de sa formation, un vrai défi s'impose : à l'époque, l'art de la plumasserie est considéré comme un peu désuet. « Mais moi, j'y ai toujours cru ! », se souvient celle qui, avec le temps, est passée maître d'art. « Alors, comme je préfère le "faire", plutôt que de discourir, j'ai fait : j'ai répondu à des commandes d'horlogers, de designers, de couturiers, de joailliers…, de nombreux domaines où j'ai pu impulser l'idée qu'on pouvait faire vivre l'art de la plume autrement. » Pari réussi : aujourd'hui, parmi les clients de Nelly Saunier, on compte de nombreuses maisons de luxe, de Gucci à Louboutin en passant par Hermès, Givenchy ou Jean-Paul Gaultier. Autant de collaborations qui ont donné une visibilité à l'artisane autant qu'à son art. « J'en vois beaucoup, désormais, qui s'y mettent, sur les réseaux sociaux… Tant mieux, si cela fait des émules ! », s'enthousiasme-t-elle. L'importance du lien à la nature Cette réussite donne aussi à Nelly Saunier la liberté de façonner des créations plus personnelles, de véritables œuvres d'art ne répondant à aucun impératif. Des pièces qui incluent toujours un morceau de nature glané au gré de balades en forêt ou en bord de mer : « Je ramasse ce que la nature me donne, et qui est arrivé au bout d'un cycle de vie. » D'où la présence, dans son atelier, de morceaux de bois pétrifié, de galets ou de brindilles. « J'en fais ce que j'appelle des natures transformées », explique-t-elle. Ici, une branche morte devient un tronc d'arbre dont les tiges, faites de barbes de plumes, portent des feuilles aux couleurs excentriques, turquoises, orangées ou vertes. « C'est mon grand dada de jouer avec ce que la nature m'a offert en termes de nuances, de textures, de motifs… Dans mon sujet, les plumes deviennent des fleurs, des feuilles, des pétales, des fruits… tout ce que l'on veut, en fait ! » Entre ses mains, l'oiseau, insaisissable, devient plus proche et révèle une partie de ses secrets. « Ça me fascine, cette histoire d'oiseau. Ça ne me quittera jamais », souffle enfin Nelly Saunier. Avant de revenir à ses plumes, sa manière à elle de tutoyer les cieux. Nelly Saunier x Jardins, au château de Josselin (Bretagne) jusqu'au 31 août 2026. Plumes du Paradis, au musée du Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac jusqu'au 8 novembre 2026.

Grab your Multi-Pass and book your tickets to Fhloston Paradise, because the studio is going intergalactic! This week on The Filmlosophers, the Titanic Trio—Hosts Eddie and Spencer, alongside Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy—are strapping in for a hyper-colorful, chaotic ride to revisit a monumental staple of the modern sci-fi age. The B, C, and D-Tier Horror Dilemma Before the crew saves the universe from the Great Evil, Amy brings a terrifying homework assignment to the table: she needs to watch a "B-movie horror" film for a watch party with her friends, and she needs recommendations immediately. Eddie and Spencer eagerly step up to the plate, but the conversation quickly spirals into hilarious confusion. The guys find themselves locked in a massive debate over the exact taxonomy of trash cinema, struggling to figure out how Amy and her friends actually define a "B-movie." As the crew tries to draw the blurry lines separating beloved B-tier classics from absolute C-tier and D-level schlock, Eddie and Spencer pitch their wildest, bloodiest, and most ridiculous cult horror options to ensure Amy survives her movie night. 30 Years of The Fifth Element Once the horror recommendations are safely locked away in the crypt, the team shifts their sights to the 23rd century to celebrate Luc Besson's wild, visionary blockbuster: The Fifth Element. With the film rapidly approaching its massive 30th anniversary next year, the crew dives deep into why this vibrantly weird, European-flavored sci-fi adventure still stands entirely in a league of its own. Eddie, Spencer, and Amy break down the movie's impeccably chaotic energy, from Jean-Paul Gaultier's legendary runway-ready costume design to the sheer perfection of the practical creature effects. Although it took all of Spence's life to finally see the film this past month, the team discuss Bruce Willis's ultimate reluctant hero, Milla Jovovich's iconic creation of Leeloo, Chris Tucker's fearless, dial-turned-to-eleven performance as Ruby Rhod, and the absolute cinematic majesty of the Diva Dance sequence. Is this film a flawless sci-fi masterpiece or just beautifully unhinged? Grab your perfect microwave chicken pill and tune in to find out!
This week, we're eating out with a 1989 cult film from director, writer, and visual artist Peter Greenaway. The film centers on a cook, Richard, played by Richard Bohringer; a thief, mobster Albert, played by Michael Gambon; his wife, Georgina, played by Helen Mirren; and her lover, Michael, played by Alan Howard. Through a series of dinners at Richard's fancy London restaurant, Le Hollandais, which Albert owns, the lavish meals devolve into debauchery, while Georgina and Michael's affair evolves into a plot of lust, murder, and revenge. Filmed on massive, color-coded sets and featuring costumes by Jean-Paul Gaultier and food by Italian chef Giorgio Locatelli, this crime-drama art film was released unrated by the MPAA for nudity and violence. Despite a limited run and current unavailability, the film has earned critical acclaim over the decades, as its indulgent brutality and formalist cinematography appear timeless. Join us as we chew on The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover, and do our best to swallow. For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

It's showing us Shane and Ilyia maturing into men who can actually be in a relationship, not just have sex in one. And it's showing us Rose figuring out who she is alongside them. Growth isn't linear for any of these characters, and honestly, that's the whole point.This episode has jokes, it has ginger ale, it has a Jean Paul Gaultier shirt doing more emotional labor than most people's therapists. And underneath all of it, we're talking about what it actually looks like when men — queer or straight — mature into partners instead of performers.In this episode, we cover:

Le parfum est partout : dans notre mémoire, dans la séduction, dans l'identité que l'on projette aux autres. Pourtant, son industrie reste largement méconnue, entourée de fantasmes, de storytelling… et parfois de grandes illusions. Pour en parler, j'ai reçu Francis Kurkdjian : parfumeur, directeur artistique de sa propre maison mais aussi directeur de la création des parfums Dior. Il est l'un des créateurs de parfum les plus influents au monde. À 25 ans, il crée Le Mâle de Jean Paul Gaultier, l'un des plus grands succès de l'histoire de la parfumerie. Un triomphe qu'il raconte avoir… très mal géré. Avec beaucoup de lucidité, il revient sur cette peur de devenir “l'homme d'un seul parfum”, sur la réalité parfois peu glamour de l'industrie, où les matières synthétiques dominent largement malgré les imaginaires de champs de fleurs entretenus par les marques, et sur son choix audacieux : créer sa propre maison alors qu'aucun parfumeur, à l'époque, ne signait véritablement en son nom. Nous avons aussi parlé de réinvention, des rencontres qui changent une vie, de créativité… mais aussi :Comment trouver “son” parfum ?Pourquoi un parfum sent-il différemment selon les personnes ?Quelles sont les fragrances les plus sous-cotées ?

I 1997 redefinerte Luc Besson sci-fi-sjangeren med farger, kaos, flyvende taxier og en helt unik stil. Jean-Paul Gaultier sto for kostymene, Bruce Willis var på sitt tøffeste, og Gary Oldman ga oss en av tidenes mest ikoniske skurker. Men hvordan føles denne visuelle eksplosjonen nesten 30 år senere?I denne episoden av Nye Skonts Videoverden dykker vi dypt ned i denne kultklassikeren for å se om den fremdeles leverer varene, eller om den har rustet med årene.Filmens handling: Hvert 5000. år åpnes en dør mellom dimensjonene. I den ene finnes universet og livet, i den andre en anti-energi skapt av ren ondskap. Den eneste måten å stoppe mørket på er gjennom "det femte elementet". Ved en tilfeldighet lander dette elementet – i form av den mystiske Leeloo – bokstavelig talt i baksetet på taxien til Korben Dallas i et futuristisk New York. Sammen må de finne de fire eldgamle steinene før det er for sent.Skonts filmpanel:Kenny P: Vert og prosjektleder.Einar 80sMan: Fast paneldeltaker og filmkjenner.Haavard The Real Deal: Fast bidragsyter i Skont-universet.Blir vi fremdeles bergtatt av operascenen med Diva Plavalaguna, eller har effektene gått ut på dato?

T-shirts can be found here – https://www.redbubble.com/people/ufocast Email the show – ufocast@yahoo.com he Fifth Element (French: Le Cinquième Élément) is a 1997 English-language French science fiction-action film conceived and directed by Luc Besson, and co-written by Besson and Robert Mark Kamen. It stars Bruce Willis, Milla Jovovich, Gary Oldman, Ian Holm, and Chris Tucker. Primarily set in the 23rd century, the plot involves the survival of planet Earth, which becomes the responsibility of Korben Dallas (Willis), a taxi driver and former special forces major, after a young woman named Leeloo (Jovovich) falls into his cab. Dallas joins forces with her to recover four mystical stones essential for the defence of Earth against the impending attack of a malevolent cosmic entity. Besson started writing the story that was developed as The Fifth Element when he was 16 years old; he was 38 when the film opened in cinemas. Besson wanted to shoot the film in France, but suitable facilities could not be found; filming took place in London and Mauritania, instead. He hired comic artists Jean "Moebius" Giraud and Jean-Claude Mézières, whose books inspired parts of the film, for production design. Costume design was by Jean Paul Gaultier. The Fifth Element received mainly positive reviews, although some critics were highly negative. The film won in categories at the British Academy Film Awards, the César Awards, the Cannes Film Festival, and the Lumière Awards, but also received nominations at the Golden Raspberry and Stinkers Bad Movie Awards. The Fifth Element was a strong financial success, earning more than US$263 million at the box office on a $90-million budget, making it the ninth highest-grossing film of 1997. At the time of its release, it was the most expensive European film ever made, and it remained the highest-grossing French film at the international box office until the release of The Intouchables in 2011. Plot In 1914, aliens known as Mondoshawans meet their contact on Earth, a priest of a secret order, at an ancient Egyptian temple. They take the only weapon capable of defeating a great evil that appears every 5000 years, promising to protect it and return it before the great evil's re-emergence. The weapon consists of the four classical elements, as four engraved stones, plus a sarcophagus containing a "fifth element". In the 23rd century,[a] the great evil appears in deep space as a giant living fireball. It destroys an armed Earth spaceship as it heads to Earth. The Mondoshawans' current human contact on Earth, priest Vito Cornelius, informs the president of the Federated Territories of the great evil's history and the weapon that can stop it. On their way to Earth, a Mondoshawan spacecraft carrying the weapon is ambushed and destroyed by a crew of Mangalores, alien mercenaries hired by Earth industrialist Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg, who is working for the great evil. A severed hand in metal armour from the wreckage of the spacecraft is brought to New York City. From this, the government uses biotechnology to recreate the original occupant of the sarcophagus, a humanoid woman named Leeloo, who remembers her previous life. Alarmed by the unfamiliar surroundings and high security, she escapes and jumps off a ledge, crashing into the flying taxicab of Korben Dallas, a former major in Earth's special forces. Dallas delivers Leeloo to Cornelius and his apprentice, David, who recognises her as the fifth element. As Leeloo recuperates, she tells Cornelius that the stones were not on board the Mondoshawan ship. Simultaneously, the Mondoshawans inform Earth's government that the stones were entrusted to an alien opera singer, the diva Plavalaguna. Zorg reneges on his deal with the Mangalores for failing to obtain the stones, and kills some of them. Earth's military sends Dallas to meet Plavalaguna; a rigged radio contest provides a cover, awarding Dallas a luxury vacation aboard a flying hotel on planet Fhloston, accompanied by flamboyant talk-show host Ruby Rhod. It includes a concert by Plavalaguna, and learning that Leeloo shares his mission, Dallas lets her accompany him. Cornelius instructs David to prepare the temple, then stows away on the luxury spaceship. The Mangalore crew, pursuing the stones for themselves, also illegally board the ship. During the concert, the Mangalores attack, and Plavalaguna is killed. Dallas extracts the stones from her body and kills the Mangalore leader, causing the others to surrender. Zorg arrives, shoots Leeloo, and activates a time bomb. He flees with a carrying case he presumes contains the stones, but returns when he discovers it is empty. As Zorg's bomb causes the hotel's evacuation, Dallas finds Leeloo traumatised and escapes with her, Cornelius, Rhod, and the stones in Zorg's private spaceship. Zorg deactivates his bomb, but a dying Mangalore sets off his own, destroying the hotel and killing Zorg. As the great evil approaches Earth, the four meet David at the temple. They deploy the stones, but Leeloo, having learned of humanity's history of cruelty, has given up on life. Dallas declares his love for her and kisses her. Leeloo combines the power of the stones, emitting divine light onto the great evil and defeating it. Dallas and Leeloo are hailed as heroes, and as dignitaries wait to greet them, the two passionately embrace in a recovery chamber.
The cast: Meryl Streep, Stanley Tucci, Anne Hathaway. The brands: ALL of them. The result: The Devil Wears Prada 2, of course.

Todays guest is Eve Salvail, a Canadian model who was one of the most iconic androgynous faces of the '90s. Unlike the Cindys, Lindas and Naomis of the day, Eve exuded a punk attitude that was only magnified by the fact she had a Chinese dragon tattooed on her scalp. Her truly unique appearance made her the perfect muse to iconic French fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier, who would drape and design directly onto Eve's body.As well as standing out on the runway, Eve also stood out in cult films such as The Fifth Element and Pret a Porter and when I first sat down to chat with her I had no idea she would be so completely honest and open.In this episode Eve opens up about so many of her experiences during the '90s and while many of them make for an entertaining listen, she also shares on darker times. As such we do cover issues such as mental health, addiction and eating disorders, so if that's something you don't need right now, please listen to another episode.Other than reading her memoir – Sois toi et ‘tes belle – which roughly translates to be yourself and you are beautiful – this is the most upfront and honest take on being a supermodel you can get.If you want to see just how stunning Eve is, head to my Substack. You can read it for free at thecharissereport.substack.com but do please subscribe!Also, I've made a couple of videos about Eve so check them out on my Instagram @charisse_kenion or on TikTok orYouTube.See you next time and thanks for being here.
Vous avez dit "bizarre" ? C'est bien normal. Voici la première série de Baleine sous Gravillon consacrée à des espèces animales extraordinairement étranges.Dans cette première série, Marc et Marie-Juliette se penchent sur 5 animaux à l'anatomie hors du commun.C'est un mammifère qui inaugure le bal, en la personne du Chevrotain porte-musc, un cousin des cervidés doté chez les mâles de canines de vampire pour draguer ces dames ! Eh oui, exactement comme le Muntjac, ce petit cerf présenté dans notre série de l'Avent 2025 !Autre fait d'armes, porté dans son nom : la présence (toujours chez ces messieurs) d'une glande sécrétrice de musc, une substance utilisée en parfumerie depuis l'Antiquité. Une précieuse denrée vendue à prix d'or, rendant ces animaux victimes aussi bien d'un élevage cruel que du braconnage...___

Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticJoin The Normandy For Additional Bonus Audio And Visual Content For All Things Nme+! Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KIn this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz delivers a focused analytical breakdown of Lil Uzi Vert's latest single “What You Saying,” released December 22, 2025 (with video dropping December 23), via Cor(e) / Roc Nation Distribution.Produced by MC VERTT, the track fuses Jersey Club rhythms with a sample from Indila's “Love Story,” exploring romantic frustration through a language barrier theme. It marks Uzi's fourth single in a rapid December rollout following “Chanel Boy,” “Relevant,” and “Regular,” kicking off their independent era after signing with Roc Nation Distribution—joining only JAY-Z and Rihanna in holding management, distribution, and publishing ties while retaining full masters ownership and creative control.The Charlotte Wales-directed music video (creative direction by Lil Uzi Vert and Ava Nirui) reimagines Uzi as a renowned fashion designer in an alternate universe, featuring atelier scenes, backstage chaos, a high-energy runway show with Marc Jacobs Spring 2025 looks, archival pieces from Jean Paul Gaultier, Helmut Lang, Raf Simons, Thom Browne, and Maison Margiela (Spring 2001 glove top worn by Adriana Lima), plus cameos from supermodel Adriana Lima, designer Marc Jacobs, Law Roach, Andre Walker, Lourdes Leon, and Lynn Yaeger. The visual pays homage to 1990s couture, Fashion TV nostalgia, and Prince's boundary-pushing influence, complete with satirical protester signs (“UZI Fashion Scum”) and a triumphant bow finale.Analytic Dreamz examines how this multidisciplinary release—paired with limited-edition merch via Welcome to Cor(e)—signals Uzi's crossover ambitions into luxury fashion, building on their 31+ billion career streams, multiple Grammy nods, three Billboard 200 No. 1s, and Complex recognition as a top 21st-century best-dressed celebrity. As speculation builds for a 2026 album, this fashion-forward statement reinforces Uzi's innovative legacy at the intersection of music, high fashion, and artistic autonomy.Join Analytic Dreamz for this data-driven deep dive into one of late-2025's most visually ambitious and strategically pivotal releases.

This week I'm chatting with the most interesting fashion creator out there, Jay Tibbitts.New York-based Jay has become a real authority on talking about fashion where it's less about opinions and more about facts, statistics and curiosity and what makes him so interesting, especially within the fashion space, is that he's not a creator who simply gushes over collections or churns out instant negative hot takes; instead he embraces curiosity and encourages dialogue.Plus, he has a day job working in social strategy across beauty, tech and hospitality, which gives him this very individual viewpoint on how we use and consume fashion as well as culture in general.If you're a regular listener then you might already have heard Jay making a few appearances in the last episode, number 310, which was my epic SS26 fashion month report. In that episode Jay shared his top show picks from New York, Paris and Milan, but in this episode we dive even deeper into his favourite fashion month moments, and along the way we discuss the more provocative issues that emerged from shows such as Duran Lantink at Jean Paul Gaultier and Pieter Mulier's new vision of Alaïa.We also break down the concept of luxury itself, talk about Matthieu Blazy's Chanel, ask if we still need fashion shows and discuss the prevalence of hot takes from online critics who have no prior knowledge of the fashion industry!LinksFollow Jay at https://www.instagram.com/jaytibbitts/My Substack: https://thecharissereport.substack.comThreads: https://www.threads.net/@charisse_kenion/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/charisse_kenion/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@charissekenionCheck out my ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/beautymeBusiness inquiries: info@charissekenion.com

On today's show, we're chatting with Stef, the founder of Costura, a Y2K vintage fashion business that does serious volume on Whatnot. Stef started reselling full-time after losing her job during the pandemic, and for the last three and a half years, she's been hosting live auctions on the livestream platform, Whatnot – sometimes she even goes live daily. In this episode, she shares how she's built a loyal community of cool people who love early 2000s fashion, plus her best tips for livestream sales. Earlier this year, Stef teamed up with a few business partners to make her biggest buyout yet, and then spent three and half months in Los Angeles, continuously going live until she sold the lots – it's a wild story and she's always on the move between Miami and LA hunting down one-of-a-kind Y2K treasures. I'll let her share the scoop on how she does it. This is a really fun one – let's dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [4:57] How Stef started selling vintage after getting laid off from her job in television production. [6:27] Her first time visiting a rag house. [11:32] Things really clicked when Stef got on Whatnot [15:09] Building an audience of Whatnot regulars: resellers, collectors, and everyday shoppers [17:15] Stef's biggest buyout yet: 1,000 pieces of Y2K deadstock [21:41] How to have a successful vintage live show [33:34] Living and selling vintage between Miami and Los Angeles [37:13] How Stef approaches social media, showing up on TikTok and Instagram [41:19] The vintage in her personal collection that she will never sell [46:05] Her holy grail find is a Jean Paul Gaultier piece from the bins EPISODE MENTIONS: @houseofcostura Stef on TikTok Shop Costura on Whatnot Stef's upcoming Mandalay show @bleumi.bleumi @busyladybaca Whatnot LET'S CONNECT:
He created Jean-Paul Gaultier's Le Mâle at just 24 and gave the world Baccarat Rouge 540, the fragrance that conquered the internet. Now, master perfumer Francis Kurkdjian – head of his own perfume house and Perfume Creation Director at Christian Dior – unveils a new Paris exhibition, "Perfume: Sculpture of the Invisible", at the Palais de Tokyo, celebrating 30 years of his groundbreaking creations. He sat down with FRANCE 24's Culture Editor Eve Jackson to talk about the art of capturing emotion in scent, the viral success of Baccarat Rouge 540 and how he's redefining fragrance as a true form of art.
It's been a buzzy week at the Vogue offices. On Tuesday night, Zohran Mamdani made history as the first Muslim, the first person of South Asian descent, and the youngest in a century to hold the Mayoral position. Vogue's Fashion News Editor, José Criales-Unzueta, joins Chloe and Nicole to discuss the newly announced mayor's style — along with that of his effortlessly chic Gen Z illustrator wife, Rama Duwaji, who stunned last night in a black lace Ulla Johnson skirt and Zeid Hijazi top. Together, they explore how fashion choices can reflect our beliefs, values, and sense of identity.Then, writer Mattie Kahn comes to the Vogue offices to talk to Chloe about Vogue's December cover story that she wrote about Timothee Chalamet. She talks about the challenges of pinning down time to speak with the busy actor who was filming the newest Dune film in Budapest and also working on performance art promotional videos for his upcoming film, Marty Supreme, set to go to the big screen on Christmas Day.. Plus, Kim Kardashian gets candid with Chloe about taking on her first major acting role (apart from American Horror Story) as Allura Grant in the new Hulu series All's Fair. The show features an all-star cast of women — including Naomi Watts, Teyana Taylor, Glenn Close, and Niecy Nash — the latter of whom Kim says mentored her in acting. Ryan Murphy, who created the series, said he was inspired by the line “Not only am I a lawyer in real life, I play one on TV,” which he felt perfectly suited Kim. He also drew inspiration from the well-known Hollywood lawyer Laura Wasser — whose father, notably, represented Kim's parents during their separation decades before representing Kim in her own divorce. Kim also shares behind-the-scenes details of her fabulous on-screen wardrobe, from a 1992 Jean Paul Gaultier suit with a surprising back reveal to the iconic Donna Karan power suits she sourced with her stylist, Soki Mak, for the role.

Idag ska vi bege oss in i en värld av läder, latex och piskor. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Eller, rättare sagt – vi ska ta en titt på hur modet samspelar med den subkultur i vilken den typen av fetischer förekommer, BDSM. Inte minst tack vare just mode. Modeskapare som Thierry Mugler, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Versace, Helmut Lang, Alexander McQueen och – förstås – Vivienne Westwood är bara några som har inspirerats av själva stilen, och på så sätt bidragit till att göra den mer mainstream. På årets upplaga av filmfestivalen i Cannes höjdes till exempel ett och annat ögonbryn längs röda mattan när Alexander Skarsgård stövlade in i skjorta, kostym, slips – och lårhöga läderboots. Stövlarna (som även hade vissa likheter med de vadarstövlar som hobbyfiskare bär) kom från Saint Laurent. Att stövlarna var en direkt blinkning till den film han var där att göra PR för, ”Pillion”, var det ingen tvekan om. Skribenten, författaren och fetischisten Anastasiia Fedorova recenserar Skarsgårds BDSM-stil. Det finns de som menar att John Sutcliffe borde vara en minst lika berömd modeskapare som Mary Quant. För även han förändrade modet under 1960-talet i London. Hör om den bortglömda läder och latex-pionjären. När Amanda Romares självbiografiska bok, ”Halva Malmö består av killar som dumpat mig”, nyligen kom ut som tv-serie på Netflix, så syntes Amanda Romare, med sitt entourage, på bilder från premiärfesten hållandes i en liten ridpiska. Hör den verkliga berättelsen om hur det kom sig att piskan blev hennes favoritmetod för att ragga killar.

There's an actual copy of Em's new book ‘Blood, Sweat and Glitter' in the studio for Michael to show off too. Then it's onto the shocking news that Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have announced their divorce after 19 years together. Em and Michael have several many theories and thoughts to discuss.

After growing up in the north of England British milliner Stephen Jones went on to become a pioneering British hat maker working in Paris. He has been creating avant-garde designs for the last 45 years, inspired by Surrealist art, trailblazing fashions at New Romantic club nights, and cinema. He was friends with pop star Boy George who wore his hats, and he famously created a tweed crown for Vivienne Westwood. Rather than a mere accessory, he aims to transform a hat into a statement of identity, and has collaborated with designers like Jean Paul Gaultier and Dior, helping to revitalise fine hat-making skills inspired by looks from copies of Vogue from the 1940s, 50s and 60s. The prestigious Palais Galliera fashion museum in Paris holds exhibitions every year, showcasing how fashion has evolved from the 18th century to the present day. Its focus is on the most iconic designers and Stephen Jones is one of only two hat makers ever to be included – a huge honour. Rosa Johnston-Flint joins Stephen in Paris as his retrospective is about to close and visits his workshop as he prepares his Spring-Summer 2026 collection for London Fashion Week.
It's Day 3 of our back-to-back Paris coverage! We've already witnessed groundbreaking womenswear debuts from Dior's Jonathan Anderson and Loewe's Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez.

The announcement of Lantink as new creative director may have come as a surprise, but spiritually, the Dutch designer made perfect sense to continue writing Gaultier's legacy.He joins Vogue Runway's Nicole Phelps to discuss his quick rise to the top, how he feels about other designers being influenced by his work, and the way he's approaching his new position. Plus, The Run-Through team is on the ground with our editors and some very special guests (Sally Singer!) in Paris at Loewe, Givenchy and ALAÏA.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Abby and Patrick welcome Valerie Steele, Director and Chief Curator of the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, to discuss her new book, Dress, Dreams, and Desire: Fashion and Psychoanalysis, and the exhibition of the same name that opened this week. What does “fashion” mean, and why are so many psychoanalysts and cultural gatekeepers so resistant to think about the topic critically? How do society's codes of dress reflect logics of identity, especially when it comes to gender, and how are those norms policed – and subverted? How does clothing mediate our first-person experience of our own bodies, how do clothes and nakedness recur in our fantasies and dreams, and how do we use attire to communicate with others while alternately armoring and revealing ourselves? A renowned historian and theorist of fashion, Dr. Steele masterfully walks Abby and Patrick through fashion as a field of overdetermined material commodities and complex articulations of identity and desire. From Freud's anxieties about paying his tailor to Lacan's florid wardrobe to ongoing debates over what therapists should and shouldn't wear; from Elsa Schiaparelli's mirror jackets to Jean Paul Gaultier's bullet bras to Sonia Rykiel's self-caressing knitwear to Timothée Chalamet's Haider Ackermann halter; from commodity fetishism in Marx to fetish objects in Freud; from Lacan's mirror stage to Joan Riviere's theories of masking and masquerade to the “skin ego” of Didier Anzieu; from high culture to low, and from the runway to the consulting room and beyond, it's a stylish and provocative grand tour of fashion, psychoanalysis, and the ways we all use clothes, like it or not, to literally fashion ourselves.The exhibition Dress, Dreams, and Desire: Fashion and Psychoanalysis runs from September 10th 2025 to January 4th 2026 at the Museum at FIT (227 West 27th Street, New York, NY) and is free and open to the public: https://www.fitnyc.edu/museum/exhibitions/dress-dreams-desire/index.phpSteele's book Dress, Dreams, and Desire: A History of Fashion and Psychoanalysis will be released on October 30th 2025: https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/dress-dreams-and-desire-9781350428195/MFIT will host a Fashion and Psychoanalysis Symposium on Friday, November 14, 2025. Speakers include Laverne Cox, fashion designer Bella Freud, psychoanalysts Patricia Gherovici, Anouchka Grose, Christine Anzieu-Premmereur, Chanda Griffin, fashion scholar Simona Segre, and MFIT Director Valerie Steele. Attendance is free but registration is required: https://www.fitnyc.edu/museum/events/symposium/fashion-and-psychoanalysis/index.phpHave you noticed that Freud is back?

Thirty years ago high schoolers dressed down, and then came the movie Clueless. In her yellow plaid kilt and many other colorful and stylish outfits, Cher Horowitz, the good-natured if meddlesome high-schooler played by Alicia Silverstone, made audiences laugh with her, love her, and envy the looks created by costume designer Mona May. “Everybody dressed grunge in 1994 when we were preparing the movie, and the movie set a new rule of dressing. You know, I created a whole other fashion landscape,” May tells Lyn Winter, host of Rodeo Drive –The Podcast, in a special episode to coincide with the 30-year anniversary of the movie and the launch of the third annual week-long Rodeo Drive Celebrates Fashion program spotlighting the unmatched craftsmanship and innovation in fashion on the legendary “street of dreams”.May is joined by Beverly Hills Mayor Sharona R. Nazarian PsyD, who shares her fond memories of the film, her personal love of fashion, as well as pride in the leading role played by Beverly Hills in Clueless, which was shot in multiple locations including the Electric Fountain, the Witch's House and, of course, the iconic street of high fashion - Rodeo Drive. “I think what makes Rodeo Drive so special is that people still want to be able to come and walk here as Cher did in the movie, that it's still relevant. The stores are still spectacular. I mean, where else can you find Frank Gehry and Louis Vuitton coming together to make these beautiful buildings come to life? It's just so exciting,” says Mayor Nazarian.May also shares her journey to becoming a costume designer and getting her big break with Clueless, followed by work on movies including Romy and Michelle, Never Been Kissed, Wedding Singer, Enchanted, House Bunny, and Stuart Little.May was born in India and then moved with her family to Europe and then New York. She studied fashion before moving into costume design, and met Clueless writer/director Amy Heckerling while collaborating on a pilot about two party girls in New York City. “The pilot didn't get picked up, but we formed this incredibly creative relationship. Amy is an incredible writer, an incredible artist. She loves fashion, so we were like two birds together. So when she wrote Clueless, she called me and said, ‘I really want you to do this film. I need a very different point of view, something that's going to last a long time'.” May created a timeless look for the teens in the movie that took cues from L.A.'s sunny spirit and its greenery and flowers, from fashion icons, and even from the period of the book that inspired the movie, Emma, by Jane Austen. Think, empire waists and cap sleeves. Her goal was to make the young actresses feel “quintessentially feminine” while empowered. Then there was Cher's unforgettable plaid skirt. On eyeballing “Jean Paul Gaultier yellow,” recalls May, “We had the vision.
