復活したcalvin klein collectionを皮切りに、AW2025シーズンのコレクションをレビューします。calvin klein collectionの新クリエイティブ・ディレクターはヴェロニカ・レオーニ。コレクションの内容は非常にレベルが高く、RAF SIMONSのように広い範囲でのアメリカのファッションを捉えたものでなく、90年代を中心としたcalvin klein collectionのデザインにフォーカスし、その内容を深く理解した上で現代的に再解釈するものでした。個別のアイテムに対しても細かく指摘しながら、魅力を最大限に言語化しています。CARVENで評価を集め、BOTTEGA VENETAの新ディレクターに就任したルイーズ・トロッターと合わせて、新しい世代を理解する補助線となる内容です。他にもSAINT LAURENTやALAIA、Comme des Garçonsなどを話題にした熱量高めのレビュー回です。

Brecht van Hulten in gesprek met Madelief Hohé, conservator mode en kostuum bij Kunstmuseum Den Haag In het Kunstmuseum is momenteel de modetentoonstelling Dior – A New Look te zien. Tijdloos, baanbrekend, elegant en invloedrijk: de ontwerpen van Christian Dior (1905 -1957) zijn het allemaal. In de jaren na de Tweede Wereldoorlog richt hij zijn eigen, al snel wereldberoemde, modehuis op in Parijs en maakt een ongekend snelle opmars in de modewereld. Zijn ‘New Look' met wijde rokken, verandert de mode en zijn silhouetten worden gedragen van Parijs tot Londen, New York, Tokio en Rio de Janeiro. Hij was een visionair met lef en dat geldt ook voor zijn opvolgers: Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferré, John Galliano, Raf Simons en Maria Grazia Chiuri. Hun talent en grenzeloze creativiteit hebben een onuitwisbare stempel gedrukt op de unieke geschiedenis van het Huis Dior. “Het gedachtegoed van oprichter/couturier Christian Dior is nog springlevend”, zegt modeconservator Madelief Hohé. “In het Kunstmuseum gaan zijn ontwerpen een dialoog aan met die van Maria Grazia Chiuri, de huidige en eerste vrouwelijke Creative Director van Dior”.

La SS25 di Prada è costruita intorno al concetto di individualità: l'essere umano rivendica se stesso mettendosi di traverso e rifiutando l'omologazione imposta dal flusso costante di contenuti a cui siamo tutti sottoposti. La chicca è il paradosso per il quale sia proprio Prada, che incarna qui l'industria moda nella sua interezza che da sempre propone i suoi modelli e ci influenza, a farsi portavoce di questa ricerca di individualità. Insomma, un trattato di filosofia as usual, dei miei due supereroi preferiti, Miuccia Prada e Raf Simons. #MFW Foro di copertina: Armando Grillo / Gorunway.com Sound Effect from Pixabay

It's part 2 with Sutton Stracke and we delve deeper into our conversation with her beginning with a metaphorical discussion about “eating the marshmallow” post-breakup, which symbolizes moving on quickly and not dwelling on past relationships. Sutton emphasizes the importance of continuing to date while working on personal growth. Pol' supports this by stressing the significance of discovering one's fashion style, comparing it to the discipline required for physical fitness and a healthy diet. The big elephant in the room question is why people often wait until after a breakup to improve themselves? It's not about money but about finding clothing that brings joy, regardless of the price or the store. This light-hearted exchange highlights the importance of personal satisfaction over material wealth. Sutton, known for her impeccable fashion sense, discusses her criteria for a new partner, prioritizing intellectual compatibility. How can people move forward with emotional baggage? We discuss her hands-on involvement with her boutique's inventory, and she reveals that her passion for fashion and the boutique began when she lived in Orange County and started a blog. She discusses how shopping habits have changed, with a shift towards sustainable fashion and personalized experiences and introduces us to Sutton Brands sustainable fashion and shares her plans to transition her boutique to an appointment-only model, valuing the dedicated space for exclusive events. Runway Rundown looks start with Dorit Kemsley from RHOBH, analyzing her reunion outfit and Sutton comments on how distracting her constant fiddling with her outfit was, and Pol' breaks down the technical aspects of the design. Next up we discuss Nicole Kidman's stunning gold metallic outfit at the AFI Achievement Awards, that Sutton describes it as “to die for. Our final look is Sutton's own, designed by Dior's Raf Simons and Patrik's, not a fan and criticizes the outfit, while Sutton and Pol' appreciate the intricate details and construction and she explains that the outfit was slightly wrinkled from the car ride. There's light-hearted anecdotes and a humorous story about Larry King purchasing gowns from their boutique, unsure if they were for his mistress or wife. Sutton candidly discusses her preferences in a future partner, sparking laughter and camaraderie We end with the second half of Sutton's Armenian Coffee reading with Pol' revealing profound insights into Sutton's life. He notes a small hole in her heart, which he interprets as an emotional wound from her past. Sutton's reaction to seeing the letter “A” in her coffee cup leads to a discussion about unresolved issues with a significant person from her past. Sutton acknowledges the accuracy of Pol's observations and reflects on her personal journey of healing and self-discovery and her cup reveals that her heart has been masked for too long. Pol' advises her to revisit a painful moment to truly heal and suggests planting a baby citrus tree as a symbol of new beginnings and grounding. What else is revealed in her coffee grounds? Was Jeff Lewis correct and is Sutton moving to a new property with many trees, signifying stability and growth?  This is another Hurrdat Media Production.

Patreon Preview from Blamo! Since at least 2010, menswear writers have been predicting—perhaps secretly hoping for—the end of the slim-fit trend. But it wasn't until January 2016, when Raf Simons debuted his first collection after leaving his directorial role at Dior, that things started to change. Since then, big fits have cropped everywhere, from J. Crew's giant chinos to Jerry Lorenzo's Armani-sized tailoring. If you're just starting to dip your toes into these waters, Peter and Derek discuss how you can incorporate looser fits into your wardrobe.**Listen to the entire episode and on the Blamo! Patreon 

Ghina Bazzi is the first world-class chef to be featured on The Most. Classically trained at the highest level, the Lebanese-born, Antwerp-based food entrepreneur joins Dominique at the loft to recount her earliest days moving to Sierra Leone from Beirut and how that shaped her personally and professionally.  The two dive into Ghina's formative years in the high-demand kitchens of multi-Michelin-star chefs, the heart-breaking decisions she had to make and the hard times that led her from hosting sold-out culinary nights to the inception of her current dream and Antwerp's newest hotspot, her deli ‘SUR'. Ghina also discusses the perks of being best friends with Raf Simons' right-hand person Bianca Quets Luzi and how she uses weightlifting as a tool to channel some of her self-described “aggressive energy”.    Follow Ghina Bazzi HERE Follow SUR HERE   Follow THE MOST: on Instagram. on Facebook.

Een openhartig gesprek met de fantastische Tessa Borrenberghs. Een warme, creatieve en ondernemende vrouw die op enkele jaren tijd een heel sterk merk wist neer te zetten met silhouetten die je van ver al herkent.

Dat geeft haar toch net een andere blik op kleding waardoor ze durft buiten de lijntjes kleuren om het perfecte kledingstuk voor haar klanten te creëren. Tijdens dit gesprek gaan we dieper in op hoe haar merk tot stand is gekomen en hoe het er achter de schermen aan toegaat. Ik wens jullie veel luisterplezier!Je kan Tessa haar werk volgen via Instagram & al haar producten ontdekken via haar website.Als sponsor van deze podcast, vermeld ik graag ook nog Landing Partners.

Filip Arickx also known as the 'F' in A.F.VANDEVORST, is a Belgian fashion designer, a creator and renegade innovator.  As part of the second wave of Belgian designers alongside Raf Simons, Veronique Branquinho and Jurgi Persoons; An Vandevorst and Filip Arickx were responsible for making Antwerp a fashion mainstay destination in the late 90s. Seated at the loft, Filip takes Dominique on an enchanted journey from being a precocious teenager who wanted to be heard (and was, by none other than Antwerp Six member Dirk Bikkembergs) to his homecoming-run at the Antwerp Fashion Academy, where he met his future wife and design partner on the first day.  Filip also delves into the blending of influences that made up the A.F.VANDEVORST aesthetic and the road from self-funding a fashion label to working with investors. Later in the episode, Filip discusses his brand new endeavour NIGHTFALL, the collaborative platform and adult toy company "worshipping pleasure at the altar of eros" he founded together with business partner Eveline Rigouts.

On this episode we speak with Natasha Degen, Professor and Chair, Art Market Studies, Fashion Institute of Technology about the uneasy symbiosis of fashion and art that she examines in depth in her recent book Merchants of Style: Art and Fashion After Warhol,. We talk about the encroachment of corporate luxury fashion on the art world with Warhol as the pivotal figure, the degradation of the art museum, art and fashion collaborations, Raf Simons and Sterling Ruby, Marc Jacobs and Takashi Murakami, Virgil Abloh and Pharrell, Bernard Arnault's and Francois Pinault's forays into art as the new Medici, and what is lost when art becomes sponsored by the private sector and consumed by the masses.Support the show

Renowned photographer of the Antwerp Six, Willy Vanderperre is a Belgian-born image-maker best known for his campaigns for Prada, Dior, and Jil Sander, as well as publications like i-D, Another, or W. Longstanding creative collaborations with fashion icons like Raf Simons, Olivier Rizzo, and Peter Philips have informed his creative output over the decades and renewed his lasting interest in what youth cultures have to continually offer the older generations.  Vanderperre has made himself an industry staple over the past twenty-plus years through his illustrious photography, which includes his project Naked Heartland and a book series that cleverly connects analog publishing to the new forms of media consumption. But his experience doesn't make him feel old. In fact, he continues to tap in—in his life and in the contemporary conversation—into the energy that youthful voices bring to fashion in a creative and lifelong practice that mirrors how he approaches long-term industry collaborations and pervades his images: with a sense of renewal, expression, and movement.  Episode Highlights: “A rather difficult place to be”: Growing up gay in Belgium to a hardworking family (and a father who was a butcher), Vanderperre felt the “smallness of the country” and says he was saved by art school and the sensitive people he came into contact with there.  Aspirational: Because of his upbringing, Vanderperre quickly found a drive to escape his origins.  An introverted country: Vanderperre sees Belgium's history and small geography as drivers of the country's production of artists and designers.  Looking differently at a garment: Vanderperre's photographic work stands out among fashion images because of his preoccupation with and sensibility for capturing movement.  Normalcy: While a big-city feeling feeds a feeling of glamor, Vanderperre celebrates a sense of rootedness in his origins and having peers outside of the fashion realm, a situation of social solitude that he likens to COVID quarantining.  Contemporary publishing: Translating ephemeral social media into the “analog product” of a book, Vanderperre put his book together quickly, almost instantly, much like an Instagram post.  “The right thing to do”: His book on Instagram was driven by his love of youth culture—its accessibility, efficiency, and unpretentiousness. Vanderperre's obsessions with youth, isolation, and the redemptive power of pop culture can be summed up by how impressed he is by outspoken young people disconnected and connected by expressive forms like music and movies in the internet age.  Never growing up: Vanderperre is one of the first modern generations to see themselves as having a different aging and cultural trajectory from their parents, and more able to choose whether they wanted to become “adults.”  Contemporary politics: Youth have positively shaped the world, particularly in the past five years, but Vanderperre has partnered with the Trevor Project to support LGBTQ+ rights. Long-term relationships: Close collaborations with Raf Simons, Olivier Rizzo, and Peter Philips have been challenging, presenting opportunities for growth.  Fluidity: While the industry has changed in the past 20 or 30 years, it doesn't feel all that different to Vanderperre; he approaches it with new energy and different emotions and enjoys the influx of new voices. What's contemporary now: “This conversation.”  

Matthieu Blazy has been a quiet but powerful force in the fashion industry for years, having worked under powerhouse designers like Raf Simons and Phoebe Philo. But in 2021, he earned that status on his own when he was named the creative director of Bottega Veneta. Since then, he's developed a reputation for pushing creative boundaries; BoF editors named his carnivalesque Autumn/Winter 2023 collection, which featured tank tops and jeans made of leather, as their favourite show of the season. “I was very interested in this idea of boring clothes. How can we push it so it really becomes something precious and luxurious?” Blazy says.This week on The BoF Podcast, Blazy sits down with BoF editor-at-large Tim Blanks at BoF VOICES 2023, where he opened up about his creative processes and work at Bottega Veneta. Key insights:For Blazy, collaboration and a close connection with his teams are paramount for creativity. Before taking the creative helm of Bottega Veneta, Blazy spent four years at Maison Martin Margiela. “The way I work with the team is quite emotional. … When I arrived at Margiela I took my office out of the studio and I put it inside the atelier. It was nice because it was not just me thinking on my own. We were actually making it together,” he shares.Whilst Blazy recognises the power of technology in fashion, at Bottega Veneta, he still puts the emphasis on craftsmanship first. “When you make something by hand, it will always have a little mistake, which is not a mistake, which is part of the process. … so when you go to the store, you won't find twice the same product. You have the idea of a theory, of course, but it's never the same. One artisan cannot finish the work of another artisan.”As a global brand, Blazy hopes customers around the world will be able to see themselves in Bottega Veneta under his creative direction. “Fundamentally I want [global customers] to also find something where they also recognize themselves in the story that is not just Italian.” Additional resources: Who Is Matthieu Blazy, Bottega Veneta's New Creative Director?Bottega Veneta: Everything Old Is New AgainBottega Veneta's Everything, Everywhere Essence Strikes Fashion Gold Hosted on Acast.

BoF's editor-at-large and founder and editor-in-chief look back at the key moments of fashion month, from Sabato de Sarno's debut at Gucci to Sarah Burton's farewell show for Alexander McQueen.Background: This season, fashion month saw several highly-anticipated debuts (Sabato de Sarno at Gucci, and Peter Hawkings at Tom Ford) as well as goodbyes (Sarah Burton at Alexander McQueen, Fabio Zambernardi at Prada and Miu Miu, and Gabriela Hearst at Chloé). But, beyond those headline-making moments, the highlights included the slyness and humour at Prada where models walked down a runway against a backdrop of dripping slime to an Alfred Hitchcock soundtrack, Dries Van Noten's and models at JW Anderson in plasticine-made hoodies..“The best shows make you think and make you feel a little uncomfortable or they evoke some kind of emotion — but they also make you want to shop,” says Imran Amed, BoF's founder and editor-in-chief. Following the conclusion of Paris Fashion Week, Amed sat down with BoF's editor-at-large Tim Blanks to discuss the highlights of the Spring/Summer 2024 season and the hallmarks of a great fashion show. Key Insights:Sabato de Sarno's much-anticipated debut at Gucci, which included a change of venue from the streets of Milan's Brera district to Gucci's headquarters forced by inclement weather. “If those girls had been walking on cobblestones just like people going somewhere, seeing those clothes in a real environment, it would have taken on a different kind of life,” says Blanks. Alexander McQueen said goodbye to Sarah Burton, who served as a steward for the brand for more than 10 years after the death of its namesake designer. ( “ She was so umbilically connected with [McQueen] that the brand ethos was sustained to a remarkable degree. I would hate to see McQueen now become one of those brands where no one really knows what to do with it and it's in play,” says Blanks. Rick Owens show featured plumes of coloured smoke and bursts of rose petals — and a collection full of thought-provoking statement pieces. “There is really no one like him in fashion, and I don't know if there has ever been anyone like him in fashion,” says Blanks. Blanks calls Undercover's Jun Takahashi one of the industry's most fascinating designers. This year, Takahashi showed a provocative collection that played with proportions and layering, with a finale that included “terrarium” skirts, filled with plants and live butterflies. “He makes clothes that … people might consider to be avant garde, but they're so beautiful and wearable as well,” says Blanks.Prada was the “show of the season.” A few years into Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons' collaboration as co-creative directors, the show's success was a convergence of elements beyond the collection itself — from the soundtrack (Alfred Hitchcok's “Vertigo”) to the set. “It reminded us of Prada in its full glory where there was that slyness and humour and perverse glamour,” says Blanks.

➜ La Newsletter de TheBoldWay : https://www.theboldway.fr/newsletter Pour ce nouvel épisode, je suis très heureux de me retrouver aux côtés de Pierre Banchereau, fondateur de Debeaulieu, fleuriste, scénographe et directeur artistique pluridisciplinaire. C'est la deuxième fois que je rencontre Pierre, car malheureusement, lors de notre première interview sous le nom d'EDLM, il y a plus de 5 ans maintenant, mon matériel a été dérobé, entraînant la perte définitive de notre échange. Ce nouvel épisode marque donc notre revanche, avec un nouveau nom pour moi, et de nouvelles aventures pour Pierre. Pierre grandit sur les côtes vendéennes, entouré par la nature et les paysages pittoresques du littoral. Alors qu'il débute une carrière bien rangée dans les RH, il est rattrapé par une crise de la trentaine qui l'amène à démissionner pour suivre une formation de fleuriste à Paris, avant de fonder Debeaulieu en 2013, une boutique de fleurs et un studio de création. Il a rapidement su se démarquer par ses compositions florales uniques, mêlant intemporalité et modernité. Son talent a rapidement été reconnu, et il a collaboré avec des marques de mode prestigieuses telles que Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga ou encore Kenzo. Debeaulieu est devenu un lieu incontournable pour les amateurs de beauté végétale et de décoration intérieure, alliant la passion du végétal avec l'art d'innover. Aujourd'hui, il s'impose comme le fleuriste star de la mode et multiplie les collaborations avec des maisons de luxe tout en continuant à jongler entre sa boutique et son studio de création événementielle. Il est inspirant de voir comment une passion pour les fleurs et la création ainsi que pour le travail et l'entrepreneuriat peut conduire à une carrière remarquable. Je vous invite donc à écouter l'épisode en entier afin de découvrir l'histoire fascinante de Pierre Banchereau et de son parcours, ainsi que de plonger dans l'univers créatif de Debeaulieu. ➜ Retrouvez toutes les références et les photos prises lors de l'enregistrement sur www.theboldway.fr Ce que vous allez découvrir dans cet épisode : Les moments marquants de la jeunesse de Pierre, qui ont influencé ses choix de carrière et sa passion pour les fleurs.

Les leçons importantes qu'il a tirées de son premier stage chez Majid dans l'industrie florale. Les événements et les circonstances qui ont conduit à la création de sa propre boutique de fleurs.

During Art Basel Miami Beach 2022, Hadrian Belove asked Adam to meet up with him at Soho House, where he was with two young ladies Eva and Elena Sullivan. When Adam arrived, he was immediately taken with the gals' intelligence and savvy. Turns out, Eva and Elena are fashion designers behind the new brand Sullivan, which creates beautiful and elegant clothing for women at a price point that is much less depressing than something like, say, The Row. Given that we seldom discuss fashion around here despite an interest in the industry, who better to come on than Eva and Elena. The girls discuss the absence of creative vision in the algorithmically driven modern fashion industry, and explain what they're doing to combat the trend towards "aspirational mid" that plagues modern beauty standards.

Over his 25 years as CEO of the Danish textile company Kvadrat, Anders Byriel has turned what was once a small, fairly dusty family design business into a global giant. Perhaps just as notably, he's taken a radical, and even artistic, approach to building and cultivating the brand's culture, partnering with designers such as Raf Simons, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, and Peter Saville; arts institutions like the New Museum in New York, the Tate Modern in London, and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebaek, Denmark; and brands including Adidas Originals, Bang & Olufsen, and Jaguar Land Rover. On this week's episode of Time Sensitive, Byriel talks about why the best design has an artistic edge, the importance of making space for emotion within a corporate environment, and his deep and lifelong passions of poetry and photography.Special thanks to our Season 7 sponsor, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Anders Byriel [01:04]Annie Ernaux [04:25]“Vermeer” at the Rijksmuseum [06:04]Kvadrat [06:56]Raf Simons [12:05]Peter Saville [13:24]David Adjaye [14:05]Thomas Demand [14:14]Louisiana Museum of Modern Art [14:17]Rosemarie Troeckel [14:20]Olafur Eliasson [14:27]Jean Nouvel [14:40]Massimiliano Gioni [18:06]Pipilotti Rist [18:39]Wu Tsang [19:07]“The Triple Folly” [19:33]Danh Vo [24:20]Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec [27:09]Giulio Ridolfo [30:41]“Materializing Color” [30:43]Adidas Originals x Kvadrat Stan Smith [39:03]Konstantin Grcic [43:06]Verner Panton [49:29]“Pop Art Design” exhibition at Vitra Design Museum [50:20]Robert Adams [01:03:08]Henrik Nordbrandt [01:03:52]Nan Goldin [01:10:39]Ocean Vuong [01:04:54]Ocean Vuong's “Time Is a Mother” book of poems [01:05:01]“Your Brain on Art” book [01:05:09]Hiroshi Sugimoto [01:11:37]“Ai Weiwei In the Elevator When Taken Into Custody by the Police” (2009) [01:12:00]Ansel Adams [01:12:44]Robert Adams's “Around the House” book [01:13:01]Robert Adams's "A Road Through Shore Pine" book [01:13:30]

Irish stylist Alastair McKimm joins Christopher Michael to discuss his trailblazing path to becoming i-D Magazine's global editor-in-chief. Growing up in Belfast in the '80s and '90s, Alastair was captivated by the distinct street style and elements of skateboarding, hip hop, and punk cultures. He encountered the fashion world through the pages of i-D Magazine, which introduced him to renowned designers like Raf Simons, Ann Demeulemeester, Martin Margiela, and Helmut Lang. Working with iconic designers and photographers has helped mold his career, alongside his perseverance and exuberant passion for the work. At i-D, he has built a solid team, injecting the publication with a reenergized vision, always keeping open to new ideas and perspectives, and keen on fostering collaborative exchange. So, what is contemporary now? To Alastair, it is honesty, authenticity, and a community of people who bring out the best in others. Episode Highlights: Elements of education: Early exposure to street fashion in Alastair's native Belfast and studying fashion design at Nottingham Art School. Early influences: skateboarding, surfing, hip-hop, and punk; Raf Simons, Ann Demeulemeester, Martin Margiela, and Helmut Lang; i-D Magazine and Self Service, and their "advertising that wasn't even selling clothes, but a brand."  In the '90s, the internet was in its infancy, and magazine images were the outsized primary influence. Designs, casting, styling, and photography: Alastair landed his first job in London by showing up with his portfolio and networking his way into an assistant's job with Edward Enninful, then the fashion director at i-D Magazine.  Living the dream: Alastair relished every aspect of his introduction to fashion styling, though it was a steep learning curve—intense, terrifying, and exhilarating. Playing to strength: As administrative work was not his strong suit, Alastair focused on researching and scanning images from fashion archives, vintage, costume, and antique shops. Full circle: As i-D Magazine's global editor-in-chief, Alastair has the institutional memory to reflect on the evolution of covers, collaborators, and the industry's interplay. Do the work: Alastair underscores the importance of working every rung of the fashion ladder to gain fluency, perspective, and core-level competencies. Building out the team: Camaraderie and collaboration, which Alastair believes are the most contemporary (and work-life enhancing) of all things. Church and state: The false divisions between art and commerce, and why growth and financial engagement are essential to building brands. Making old school more commercial: social media mastery; video content; and digitization. Post-pandemic workplace creative processes and communication: finding the balance between in-person and virtual; deploying platforms, such as Facetime, Zoom, WhatsApp, sms, and email. Capturing the moment: How do Alastair and his team look at covers, themed issues, and other editorial decisions shaping the look and priorities at i-D Magazine. Content versus collections: The curation processes differ. Editor versus stylist: open-mindedness and growth invariably evolve out of collaboration essential to publishing effective, compelling magazine content. How New York has become home—with touchstone influences like Gap, Calvin Klein, DKNY, Tiffany's, and many more. The World is Flat: About the globalization (and overlap) in today's fashion landscape. Saying No to the Fashion Vacuum: Alastair shares thoughts on how his longstanding affinity for street culture (and an open mind) keep ideas fresh and inspiration expansive in an often insular, self-referential industry. On having it all: How a blend of gratitude and a distinct personality have helped Alastair maintain a healthy work-life balance. Checking imposter syndrome: Giving back and being of service helps Alastair stay grounded.

We want your feedback! Fill out our listener survey for a chance to win a $100 Patagonia gift card. First, we have to talk about Balenciaga. If you type “Balenciaga child porn” into Google right now, you get 2.6 million hits. That is not good and they have only themselves to blame for an ad campaign that posed toddlers with bondage-themed plushie bear handbags and booze glasses, like they'd walked in on the tail end of of a sex-fueled all-nighter. For the time being, the CEO, Cedric Charbis, and designer Demna Gvasalia have managed to avoid taking direct responsibility for this blunder, which is a real mess. The brand issued an apology using the royal “we.” We also take a look back on Raf Simons' career as he shutters his label after a 27-year run, and then wonder what happened behind the scenes at Gucci that led to them parting ways with Alessandro Michele.  COP27 ended with a whimper, so we brought on our Executive Producer, Scott Clavenna, to give us his takes on what was accomplished and what was left to next year's delegates to address. Then we take a quick look at the holiday season for retail this year, and it's not all bad. There are some bright spots for resale, and hopefully less bright for fast fashion. And speaking of fast fashion, luxury resale powerhouse Vestiaire Collective announced they're banning fast fashion from their platform. And H&M released an ambitious carbon reduction plan.  Have a question for Christina, Rachel and Shilla? Give us a call at (508) 622-5361.‬ We might feature your voicemail in an upcoming episode.

The globally acclaimed photographer and rebel eternal Willy Vanderperre visits Dominique Nzeyimana at the loft.  From pastoral Belgium to the world, during an ongoing and decades-spanning career, Willy Vanderperre has lensed highly influential fashion editorials and campaigns season after season.  When i-D magazine first published young Willy's work with Raf Simons and the Antwerp Six, it attuned the fashion world at large to his gift. In the following years the most coveted houses and labels like Raf Simons, Jil Sander, Dior, Calvin Klein, Prada, Alaïa and many more all leaned on Willy Vanderperre's eye for creating culture-shifting and cerebral imagery.

Various works of his have been on view at prestigious museums like the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and MoMu in Antwerp.  At this particular moment in time, Willy Vanderperre's first feature film ‘Heartlands' is setting the underground alight.

Risa Taniguchi is arriving at the forefront of the dark techno wave that has washed over the underground in recent years. The Tokyo born - and based - artist has spent the last four years cultivating a lo-fi sound of distorted textures, fizzing synths and a quietly burning energy, which consumes all who hear it. Preferring to play sets which are "late night, for the weirdos", Risa has a knack for getting crowds in a nocturnal trance, before delivering shocks and surprises with a curious motif or unpredictable element. For those who like to cut loose in a dark environment, she is the perfect selector. In the studio as well as the club, Risa focuses on the drums, programming kicks that bring visceral and often aggressive thrills next to a uniquely addictive layer of well designed snares and hi hats. Her signature has become her own subtle and intriguing vocal samples, best heard on Slipped My Mind and Enclozed. She adds layers of acid bass and an always raw, edgy aesthetic. Having experienced them first hand whilst living in London, in 2010, Risa also has an enduring love of underground UK bass sounds, which can be heard in many of her tracks. The multi-talented act is also formally trained and a skilled player of the piano, who continues to play daily. She is a "classical music nerd" too, but of course prefers to explore the minor rather than major end of the scales. Since her first release back in 2018, Risa has attracted high profile interest from A-list players Amelie Lens, Dense & Pika, Pan Pot, Perc and Daniel Avery; has hit the Top 5 of the Beatport's Leftfield Techno Chart and played everywhere from SXSW Festival in the US to De Marktkantine in Amsterdam, Watergate in Berlin and of course all the most revered spaces all across Japan including Contact, Womb, and Vent. Despite the pandemic, 2020 has proven to be a high watermark for Risa as she has delivered a continuous flow of new music, primarily on Pan Pot's Second State and on Dense & Pika's Kneaded Pains. With both of these mighty techno duos giving Risa their support and platforms, it has enabled her to start taking her first major footsteps into Europe, picking up her first headline bookings in Hungary and the UK. BRYAN BLACK aka BLACK ASTEROID started his music career as a sound designer and keyboard tech for PRINCE at PAISLEY PARK STUDIOS in his hometown of Minneapolis. While working for Prince, black proceeded to create his own music- some of the most innovative techno records released on labels such as MUTE and KOMPAKT. These records caught the ear of MARTIN GORE from DEPECHE MODE. Soon after, Black was on tour with Depeche Mode with his band MOTOR, and recording songs with Martin Gore at his home studio in Santa Barbara and Berlin. Together Black and Gore wrote a top 40 single “Man Made Machine”. In 2011 the debut BLACK ASTEROID single, “Engine 1” introduced Black Asteroid to the world, and introduced an industrial rock sound into techno that quickly took off, propelling Black to play at clubs such as Berghain, Fabric London and major festivals. The focus was in favor of song structures and vocals in a techno template. 
 After a string of EPs, the debut album “Thrust” was released in 2017 with many cross over singles, featuring vocals from ZOLA JESUS, COLD CAVE and MICHELE LAMY. The fashion designer RICK OWENS picked up on what was happening, and used Black's music for his runway shows in Paris. The two quickly became friends and collaborators. 
Currently Black Asteroid is prepping a new album and several EPs, in addition to working in the fashion world, having just released a collection of sunglasses with Valley Eyewear, and music for Raf Simons and Rick Owens.

In today's episode, I speak with Rachel Reid Wilkie.  We first met Rachel when I interviewed C Von Hassett from Entering the Mind. There was so much to Rachel that we didn't talk about so I asked her to come back on the show.  In this episode, we explore how Meditation opens up so much within your consciousness.  We talk about creativity, trust, releasing judgment, the truth to who you are, consciousness, expansion of your mind, your values, and your purpose in this crazy world we are all living in. Rachel Reid Wilkie's esteemed 20-year career in fashion culminated in directing Calvin Klein's Global Design Concept Team from New York City. Her direction allowed the brand to articulate, through style, the cultural zeitgeist of the day and its influence on the way today's youth relates to their identity. In her last season at Calvin Klein, Wilkie designed and developed the iconic catwalk denim collection for the renowned and newly appointed creative director, Raf Simons. Rachel went on to take the helm at 7 For All Mankind in Los Angeles, becoming the brand's first woman Creative Director. Years earlier, having left England at the age of twenty-one to pursue a life of fashion in Italy, Rachel's career began auspiciously by assisting Alessandro Dell'Acqua in his formative years before taking on the leading role as head designer of womenswear at Costume National. Rachel was then hand selected to work side by side with the renegade and altogether radical designer Carol Christian Poell, who to this day is still seen as the ultimate maverick of the fashion industry. After honing her talent in Italy, Rachel's expertise was called upon to design bespoke tailoring and custom leather jackets for such influential individuals as Chloë Sevigny, Zendaya, Justin Timberlake, Iggy Pop, Thom Yorke, Jay-Z, amongst numerous others.  Rachel has since left fashion to pursue a life led by consciousness, earth awareness, and a full commitment to the Arts. Returning to poetry, an integral part of her creative life since early womanhood, she explores the art of song and its relationship to the word, to writing as a dimension that leads into and shines a light on the inward self. XI, her recently released spoken-song album, denotes the self which continually passes, and the I-entity which is released once inner transformation has begun. This collection of poetry put to song, and illustrated through film, is reflective of her ever-evolving journey of self-realization. Rachel is also dedicated to the highly creative process of navigating her own mind through meditation and movement, these through the practice and movement, these through the practice of Dzogchen and Vinyasa yoga.

In the courtyard of the Chateau Marmont, you'll find the sunshine where CL is singing Arman a traditional Korean song her grandmother sang to her while growing up. While she might be one of the worlds biggest POPSTARS, CL glows with the same warmth and joy on stage in front of millions as she does in a one on one encounter with a new friend — “I feel what I feel in the moment to the fullest, so I don't have anything left behind that I need to solve later.” If we can all take a page from CL's book, its to not take life too seriously, and weather the wind of our emotions with a self-loving self awareness. She is bold, pragmatic, and exuberant but she is soft. On the topic of heartbreak, the K-pop sensation describes the delicate balance of keeping her personal life private without ‘hiding' it from her art. CL strikes a balance between forging a powerful career as a solo artist, and finding inspiration in any way shape or form that beauty finds her in life. CL shares that when she's out with friends, she always passes the aux to discover new songs — new songs are her surefire way to inspire new memories. Flipping through fashion archives as one source of her inspiration, Arman and CL bond over a shared love of Raf Simons. Gracefully, after 15 years of being at the pinnacle of the public eye, CL evolves into an even stronger and more beautiful butterfly every corner she turns. Get some fresh AIR and sunshine: It's CL's dawn, her day, and we're feeling good . . . https://areweonair.com/-cl https://www.instagram.com/areweonair/ https://www.instagram.com/armannafeei/

RIP Virgil Abloh, a true superhero who was a visionary that influenced and inspired so many of us.   The process behind the pink Raf Simons sweater that Kyle Kuzma wore and why he's the only person who could pull it off. Toreno and Kuz went viral and made a meme with it without using photoshop. When picking clients, if it doesn't inspire Toreno creatively it's not worth it for him regardless of the price tag. How important is fashion, self-expression, and style? It's the first visual cue for anyone whose meeting you for the first time.

When it was announced the Raf Simons was joining Miuccia Prada as the co-creative director of Prada Kelly & Thomas were very excited. The debut came to mixed initial reviews from The Fashion Forward Friends, but Thomas eventually came around. We loved their next menswear show, but the love has continued to wane. With the looks from the Spring 2022 RTW show and custom Met Gala looks we are worried about what the influence Raf has had on the house. Get their thoughts and come up with your own feelings on "What Is Happening At Prada?"

Have you ever wondered what's it like to work in fashion? On today's episode of Biased, Madrid-based designer Carmela Osorio Lugo tells us about her career as a designer. After graduating from college, Carmela started her career with the goal and mindset of starting a brand, this with a one person team consisting of none other than herself. She then moved on to working in the corporate side of fashion as a designer, first designing knitwear at Club Monaco and then as a denim designer at Calvin Klein Jeans under Raf Simons and Pieter Mulier. After her time at CK ended, Carmela found herself at the door step of another opportunity: Attire The Studio, a new brand that influencer and entrepreneur Xenia Adonts was looking to start. She joined Attire as Head of Design and Product Development in 2019 and has been there ever since. On this episode, Carmela and I dive into what's it like to have a design career in fashion. We talk about the importance of having a team when building a brand, our experiences with corporate fashion, side gig culture in fashion and creative careers, and the importance of having something you call your own. Carmela also tells us about her love for vintage clothing, her own personal style, and the key points in creating a sustainable brand and producing sustainable product from her experience.
