Changing the numbering system to be more suggestive of a bracket. Sixtus is the third one seed, if you will. Image: Sandro Botticelli, 1480, Pope Sixtus II Popes names Sixtus (originally Xystus): St Sixtus I 117 or 119 to 126 or 128 Martyr St Sixtus II 257 to 258 Famous martyr, in the Roman Canon St Sixtus III 432 to 440 Sixtus IV 1471 to 1484 Sistine Chapel named for him Sixtus V 1585 to 1590 Great reformer of the Papal States and Curia   Sixtus or Xystus I: the earliest pope we have covered so far, in the very uncertain period of the second century, during the reign of Hadrian. The chronicles that look back to this time do not agree on the dates of his ministry and otherwise only record a few vague details. He is supposed to have placed the chanting of the Sanctus at its present place in the Mass, right after the Preface; he is also recorded to have been martyred, although nothing seems to be preserved about the event.   Sixtus / Xystus II: pope during the persecution of Valerian in the third century. His brief reign saw a reconciliation with St. Cyprian and churches in Africa and Asia Minor, which had been requiring heretics to be rebaptized. The persecution was stepped up in August 258 and Pope Xystus was beheaded with four deacons in a cemetery where he was celebrating Mass; two more deacons were executed the same day; the last and most famous deacon, Lawrence, survived a few days to be captured and according to legend roasted to death. Pope Sixtus to this day is mentioned in the full version of the Roman Canon of the Eucharistic Prayer.   Sixtus / Xystus III: prior to his election as pope, a correspondent with St. Augustine. Approved the acts of the Council of Ephesus and rededicated the restored basilica of St. Mary Major. This historical period included continued disputes with both Pelagians and Nestorians. Defended and maintained papal supremacy over Illyricum. Succeeded by Leo the Great.   Sixtus IV: pope of the late fifteenth century. Born of poor parents; became a Franciscan and a notable theologian. Unfortunately once pope he became a traditional nepotist and involved the Papal States in wars to put his nephews in charge of Florence and Ferrara, and wars of this nature continued to absorb papal attention through the beginning of the Reformation. He opposed and annulled the decrees of the Council of Constance and was successful in turning the Church away from conciliarism. He was a great builder and is said to have made Rome much more livable, helping continue its recovery from the Avignon period of the papacy. He reorganized and essentially refounded the Vatican Library and most famously built the Sistine Chapel.   Sixtus V: also of poor birth and Dalmatian ancestry, whose family had fled from Turkish expansion; supposedly a swineherd as a boy. Also became a Franciscan and rose to prominence in that order, also for a time appointed to the Inquisition in Venice. Accompanied the future Gregory XIII to Spain to investigate claims that the Archbishop of Toledo was a heretic, and the two did not get along. During Gregory XIII's long reign he was sidelined. Similarly to his time as an inquisitor, he proved to be an effective but severe and even brutal ruler of the Papal States. He had perhaps ten thousand to thirty thousand brigands to deal with and nearly exterminated them. He put the papal finances in order and built many useful and beautiful buildings, but seems to have taxed the economy into a stupor. Of particular significance, he created fifteen Congregations to organize the cardinals and created much of the current structure of the Curia. He caused editions of the Septuagint and the Vulgate to be printed, although his edition of the Vulgate is not considered to be of high quality, and even at the time was recalled and corrected in 1592 due to many errors already recognized. He was supposedly on the point of forcing the Jesuits to change their name from the "Society of Jesus" and change some of the rules of the order when he died. For a change he was actually notably non-nepotistic.   Why Sixtus VI: A cardinal would take this name in order to revive the memory of Sixtus II (and I), recognizing that the Church in so many parts of the world faces persecution on a massive scale. That by itself might be enough. The early modern era Popes Sixtus, especially Sixtus V, might contribute to the idea especially if 1) the cardinal is a Franciscan and 2) he plans to address the Vatican finances and the organization of the Curia at large.  

Today, Fr. Anthony Gramlich, MIC, offers a remarkable reflection on St. Bartholomew the Apostle, also known as Nathanael; a man of great faith and honesty, “without duplicity.” When he encountered Jesus, he recognized Him as the fulfillment of the prophecies and came to understand that He was truly the Lamb of God. Fr. Anthony reflects on Bartholomew's profound witness and his brutal martyrdom, traditionally believed to have been skinned alive. Even Michelangelo's Last Judgment in the Sistine Chapel depicts the apostle holding his own skin; a haunting reminder of the price he was willing to pay for Christ. St. Bartholomew's story is not simply about suffering, it is about fortitude, courage, and total surrender to Jesus. The apostles were imperfect men, yet they allowed Christ to transform them into fearless witnesses who were willing to give their very lives for the Gospel. As we reflect on Bartholomew's words and example, may we too ask for the grace to stand firm in our faith, confront the challenges of our time, and say with our lives: “Take my skin, take my life; I belong to Jesus.” Even death cannot have the final word, because Christ promises the resurrection of the body.

We explore the spiritual lessons found in the life of Saint Bartholomew, also known as Nathanael, emphasizing his encounter with Jesus through the apostle Philip. I highlight Bartholomew's transparency and lack of deceit, contrasting his sincerity with the modern tendency to spread misinformation and make snap judgments. By referencing the saint's martyrdom and artistic depiction in the Sistine Chapel, the homily connects historical suffering with the virtue of integrity. The speaker calls on individuals to share their faith and joy with others, just as Philip shared his discovery of the Messiah. Ultimately, the reflection encourages listeners to live truthful lives, reminding them that God perceives their inner character regardless of outward appearances.

Michelangelo didn't wake up one morning wanting to spend four years painting a ceiling. He was a sculptor. But the Pope had a ceiling, and the Pope had money.In this bonus episode, Troy Cartwright reads an essay about an artist named Aaron Reese, who bought a newsstand at 39th and 4th in New York City to sell his ceramics — and about the uncomfortable, ancient intersection of art and commerce that every working artist has had to figure out.There was never an Eden where artists made exactly what they wanted and everybody showed up. Aaron Reese has an old newsstand. Michelangelo had a pope.

In 1534, Michelangelo was called back to Rome to complete his final work inside the Sistine Chapel for the altar wall, his Last Judgement. In the decades between his painting of the ceiling and his return, Rome was subject to two major historical events: the start of the Protestant Reformation and the 1527 Sack of Rome. This episode looks at the Last Judgement as a product of this new historical shift in Renaissance Rome. We also look at the critics of the work, both locally from Biagio da Cesena, and from far off Venice from the infamous Scourge of Princes, Pietro Aretino, in order to understand how society responded to Michelangelo's work in the most holy chapel in all of Catholicism. Follow/Support/Learn: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastWorks Discussed: Michelangelo, Last Judgement, 1535-41 https://www.museivaticani.va/content/museivaticani/en/collezioni/musei/cappella-sistina/giudizio-universale.htmlThe Florentine Renaissance CourseSupport the show

Marking the 550th anniversary of Michelangelo's birth, Professor Michael Fitzgerald offers a fresh perspective on the artist, not just as a Renaissance Master, but as a profoundly complex and possibly neurodivergent individual. Renowned for ‘David' and the Sistine Chapel ceiling, Michelangelo also showed traits such as obsessive focus, emotional intensity, and social withdrawal, leading some scholars to suggest links to autism or OCD. Blending art history with psychological insight, this talk invites us to consider how Michelangelo's inner world may have fuelled his creative brilliance and enduring legacy.

Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling is one of the defining masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance, but its creation was equally defined by friction as much as genius. This episode follows Michelangelo's turbulent relationship with Pope Julius II, from the abrupt cancellation of the pope's monumental tomb commission to the unlikely assignment of painting the chapel's vast ceiling. We explore how Michelangelo transformed the project into an ambitious visual narrative and testament of divinely inspired artistic genius.We examine how his revolutionary approach to anatomy, composition, and artistic invention, exemplified in The Creation of Adam, forever changed the course of Renaissance painting. Follow/Watch/Learn: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastWorks Discussed: Michelangelo, Pietà, 1499 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piet%C3%A0_(Michelangelo)Michelangelo, Tomb of Pope Julius II (unfinished), 1505-1545 https://www.wga.hu/html_m/m/michelan/1sculptu/giulio_2/giulio2.htmlMichelangelo, Sistine Chapel Ceiling, 1508-1512 https://www.museivaticani.va/content/museivaticani/en/collezioni/musei/cappella-sistina/volta.htmlThe Florentine Renaissance CourseSupport the show

Before the era of the High Renaissance, Pope Sixtus IV commissioned one of the most ambitious artistic projects of the Roman Quattrocento, the Sistine Chapel. In this episode, we explore the chapel's original decoration and the remarkable group of artists, including Botticelli, Perugino, Ghirlandaio, Signorelli, and Roselli, who transformed its walls into a monumental visual narrative in line with the symbolic force of the papacy. We begin by examining Pope Sixtus IV, his political ambitions, and his vision of the Sistine Chapel as a new Temple of Solomon and a powerful symbol of papal authority. From there, we analyze some of the cycle's greatest surviving frescoes, including Botticelli's Punishment of Korah, Perugino's Delivery of the Keys to Saint Peter, Signorelli's Death and Testament of Moses, and Cosimo Roselli's underrated Last Supper. Together, these masterpieces reveal how art, theology, and politics combined to create one of the defining monuments of the Renaissance and laid the foundation for Michelangelo's later masterpiece upon the chapel ceiling. Support/Watch/Follow/Learn: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastWorks Discussed: Sandro Botticelli, The Punishment of Korah, 1481-82 https://www.wga.hu/html_m/b/botticel/4sistina/punishme/korah.htmlLuca Signorelli and Biagio d'Antonio, Testament and Death of Moses, 1481-82 https://www.wga.hu/html_m/s/signorel/sistina/moses.htmlPietro Perugino, Delivery of the Keys to Saint Peter, 1481-82 https://www.wga.hu/html_m/p/perugino/sistina/keys.htmlCosimo Rosselli, Last Supper, 1481-82 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Supper_(Rosselli)The Florentine Renaissance CourseSupport the show

The quad is back. Dave and Brit rejoin Sam and Jess fresh off a More or Less fan encounter at the Zurich airport. It was quite the week for Meta as the squad breaks down the company's new line of glasses featuring Kylie Jenner (or, in Jess' words, Kendall), and Brit makes the call that this is finally the watershed moment for women buying smart glasses ( The men seem to be the early adopters, Dave wore his in the Sistine Chapel, and Sam owns 10+ pairs.). Then they get into Meta's prediction market: a genuinely interesting information machine or a very efficient way to addict twenty-somethings to fake gambling? In true MOL fashion, the squad is split. Sam is all in, Dave is worried it'll work too well, and Brit thinks it'll all click when you tie it to The Bachelor. Dave also ran GLM 5.2 on eight Nvidia B200s with some hacker friends and came away shaken. Open source is now matching, if not outperforming, frontier models at 10x the speed, raising uncomfortable questions about the enormous bets sitting on frontier labs today. Remember last year's AI talent war? It's back, and Jess argues it's really an early indicator of investor insecurity.

This week we're re-airing a favorite episode featuring Kate Brown interviewing Ben Davis about the “Raphael: Sublime Poetry” blockbuster at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The show is the first comprehensive international loan exhibition ever dedicated to him in the United States. There are 237 works in total—33 paintings, 142 drawings—and his Sistine Chapel tapestries. There are loans from the Louvre, the Vatican Museums, the Prado, the Uffizi, and the British Museum. Many of these works, according to the Met, have never been shown together, and some have never previously left Europe. Curated by Carmen C. Bambach, it took 17 years to assemble. No one quite captured divine beauty like Raphael did. But what is the story within the story of this artist who left indelible mark on western art? This week, we find out.

That leads neatly into a fascinating deep dive into Michelangelo, the Sistine Chapel, and the surprising story behind one of its most famous figures.Elsewhere, Vicky takes aim at the lack of recognition for independent podcasters, celebrates the legacy of pioneering sex educator Dr Ruth, and explores the unexpected role that the adult entertainment industry played in the VHS versus Betamax format war.The conversation then drifts into cats, spiders, taxidermy, lost childhood photographs, and listen out for THE BEST spider names EVER!If that wasn't enough, the pair discuss the spiritual origins of chiropractic treatment, the growing impact of artificial intelligence on modern life, and finish with a Fetish Factoid that Vicky can relate to. Educational, ridiculous, informative, chaotic and completely unpredictable... just another day in The Padded Cell.▶︎ Support us on Patreon for bonus content: https://www.patreon.com/ThePaddedCellPodcast▶︎ www.thepaddedcellpodcast.co.uk▶︎ www.thepaddedcellpodcast.store Watch  the podcast on YouTube:▶︎ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@ThePaddedCellPodcastFollow The Padded Cell for more:▶︎ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61551425184285▶︎ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thepaddedcell_podcast/?hl=en-gb▶︎ TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@thepaddedcellpodcastRecorded and Produced by Vicky at The Padded Cell StudiosEp 1 - 120 recorded at: ▶︎ Web - http://www.liverpoolpodcaststudios.com

Whether it’s painting the Sistine Chapel, carving the faces of Mount Rushmore, or playing the piano, the hands of men are capable of incredible things. As impressive as they are, men’s hands can’t touch what the hands of Christ did. From the healing touch given to the leper, to holding our eternal salvation secure, truly …

Mason Interactive CEO and Managing Partner Brook Shepard shares how the legendary artist Michelangelo has more in common with your data strategy than you think. It took two entire years to paint the Sistine Chapel, because of a consistent and meticulous approach incorporating deep self-reflection along the way. The discipline of of pausing, reflecting and recalibrating is what is missing in most marketing cultures today. He applied painfully honest self-reflection in examining some of his own earlier-in-career jobs that didn't go so well , asking a very pointed question: "Maybe I'm the problem. I was the common denominator in the jobs not working out." And that kind of honesty is the foundation of every good data conversation with clients. Success is knowing the core skills that will make or break your performance in an increasingly AI world. "The critical emerging marketing skill facing AI and automation is the ability to think in a well-rounded, critcal way about the problems you're facing. The ability to parse data is not a superpower."

Discover how trials and suffering serve a divine purpose in revealing God's glory within you. This powerful message explores the biblical perspective on hardship through the writings of Paul, James, and Peter, who understood that testing refines our faith like gold in a crucible. Learn why God sometimes works through reduction rather than addition, stripping away false dependencies and identities that obscure His original design. Explore the Sistine Chapel principle and Michelangelo's approach to sculpture as metaphors for how God reveals the beauty already within us. Find out how the way you talk about struggles determines whether you receive the gifts God has reserved in the middle of them. This teaching addresses common questions about why God allows suffering, how to find joy in difficult seasons, and practical ways to reframe your perspective on trials. Perfect for anyone going through challenging times, seeking to understand God's purpose in hardship, or wanting to develop a biblical worldview on suffering. This sermon was recorded at a Sunday morning gathering at Church of the Lookout in Longmont, Colorado.Visit our websiteFollow us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

For the 45th episode of Reading the Art World, host Megan Fox Kelly speaks with William E. Wallace, an internationally recognized authority on Michelangelo, about his new book “Michelangelo and Titian: A Tale of Rivalry and Genius,” published by Princeton University Press.The book makes a case scholars have long resisted: that the forty-year rivalry between Michelangelo and Titian was genuinely reciprocal. Wallace shows that Michelangelo—far from the untouchable master receiving Titian's admiration from a distance—was the first to encounter Titian's work, the first to react, and in certain respects the more transformed by it. Kelly and Wallace's conversation covers the two artists' actual meetings: Venice in 1529, Rome in 1545; the encounter at Alfonso d'Este's studiolo in Ferrara, where Michelangelo came face to face with Titian's mythological paintings and responded by producing the most erotic work of his career; and the role of Pietro Aretino—Titian's closest friend and, as Wallace puts it, the social media champion of the Renaissance—in shaping and publicizing the rivalry's terms.The episode closes on the two Pietàs: one by each artist, produced in old age, in which competition gives way to something closer to mutual recognition.For anyone interested in Renaissance art, the history of artistic rivalry, or how reputation is made and managed across a lifetime, this episode is essential listening.ABOUT THE AUTHOR William E. Wallace is the Barbara Murphy Bryant Distinguished Professor of Art History at Washington University in St. Louis. He is the author and editor of nine books on Michelangelo, has consulted for the Vatican on the cleaning of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, and has served as a principal consultant for three BBC television programmes on Michelangelo. He is the recipient of fellowships at Villa I Tatti, Harvard University's Center for Italian Renaissance Studies, and the American Academy in Rome.PURCHASE THE BOOK https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691266572/michelangelo-and-titianSUBSCRIBE, FOLLOW AND HEAR INTERVIEWS:For more information, visit meganfoxkelly.com, hear our past interviews, and subscribe at the bottom of our Of Interest page for new posts.Follow us on Instagram: @meganfoxkelly"Reading the Art World" is a podcast featuring live interviews with leading authors and writers on important new art books.

“What is truth?” This question was posed by Pontius Pilate in Gospel of John 18:38 as he interrogated Our Lord shortly before His brutal execution. It is a question at once poignant in its aim, sharp in its focus, and profound in its depth—and one that is far from new to humanity.From the moment we first gazed upon the stars in the night sky, we have stood in awe of our surroundings, seeking answers to the deepest questions of existence. The human intellect, by its very nature, strives to apprehend and understand reality; indeed, our minds hunger for it. Truth, simply defined, is “what actually is.” Modern man, unfortunately, gleefully defies this definition. He likes to say, “truth is relative”. There is no objective truth to reality. Truth is what I say it is, and how dare you Christian, try to impose your truth on others. Consider, dear friends, the image placed before us on the parish bulletin. It stands in quiet contrast to the spirit of defiance we so often encounter. It is the renowned fresco by Raphael, painted within the halls of the Apostolic Palace in Vatican City (just a few doors down from the Sistine Chapel) between 1509 and 1511. This masterpiece, known as The School of Athens, gathers together the greatest minds of the ancient world.There we see Ptolemy holding the sphere of the earth, striving to map the movements of the heavens. Nearby stands Pythagoras, immersed in numbers and harmony. And Socrates, ever the questioner, engages in dialogue, seeking truth through reason.Yet, our eyes are drawn, almost irresistibly, to the center, where two towering figures stand: Plato and Aristotle. Plato gestures upward, toward the heavens, teaching that truth lies beyond, in the realm of eternal forms. Aristotle, in contrast, extends his hand toward the earth, reminding us that truth is also found here, in the physical world we can touch and see with our senses.What a testimony this is to the human longing for truth—to the relentless pursuit of what is real, what is good, what is eternal. The Greeks sought truth with passion, with discipline, with all the power of the human mind. And yet, my brothers and sisters, this is where the story does not end but where it is fulfilled.For into this great human search steps Jesus Christ.In the Gospel this Sunday, we encounter the disciples on the road to Emmaus. Like those philosophers of old, they too were seekers. They had placed their hope in Jesus. They believed they had found the truth. But then came the scandal of the crucifixion… and with it, confusion, sorrow, and doubt. Their hopes seemed shattered.Or were they?For the Risen Lord draws near. He walks beside them, though they do not yet recognize Him. And in that sacred encounter, He reveals something astonishing: that truth is not merely an idea to be grasped, nor a theory to be proven but a Person to be encountered.A truth more profound, more mysterious, and more beautiful than anything they could have ever imagined. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

Michelangelo takes to the stage, and playwright and actor Justin Garascia joins us to discuss his dynamic reimagining of the early life of Michelangelo. Set in Renaissance Italy, MIKEY! unfolds as a gothic, queer fever dream, moving between the sculpting of David and the painting of the Sistine Chapel ceiling. As Michelangelo reflects on the life that brought him to this moment, he wrestles with how he wants to be remembered — as a sculptor, not a painter.Through a reimagined history, the play asks: what if there was a secret relationship at the House of Medici that shaped the artist's emotional life and propelled the work we still revere over 500 years later?Crowd Fund: https://fundraising.fracturedatlas.org/mikey-a-new-play/campaigns/f6cecfad-a8b2-4ca1-a00f-b50d6d6e053dShow Dates:Tue, May 19 at 7 PMTue, May 26 at 7 PMThu, May 28 at 7 PMSat, May 30 at 3 PMSun, May 31 at 7 PMTickets on Sale Now: https://thetanknyc.org/calendar-1/2026/5/19/mikeyFollow along: @mikeytheplay and @justingarascia (Instagram)Support/Watch/Follow The Italian Renaissance Podcast: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastSupport the show

Raphael is one of those names that everyone knows. He is the prince of painters, a master of the High Renaissance. And the Metropolitan Museum of Art has given him the full blockbuster treatment in a highly anticipated exhibition called "Raphael: Sublime Poetry." The show is the first comprehensive international loan exhibition ever dedicated to him in the United States. There are 237 works in total—33 paintings, 142 drawings—and his Sistine Chapel tapestries. There are loans from the Louvre, the Vatican Museums, the Prado, the Uffizi, and the British Museum. Many of these works, according to the Met, have never been shown together, and some have never previously left Europe. Curated by Carmen C. Bambach, it took 17 years to assemble. No one quite captured divine beauty like Raphael did. But what is the story within the story of this artist who left indelible mark on western art? Kate Brown is joined by art critic and podcast co-host Ben Davis, who has just published a review of the exhibition, to dive into that question.

"Don't blame the other guy. Take responsibility for it. And I think there's so much that can be done." In this episode, Tim sits down with Kurt Rumens (President, Travis Industries and founder of Lopi Stoves) at the HPBExpo in New Orleans. Kurt shares the unlikely journey from rock-and-roll drummer turned truck driver to building one of the hearth industry's most beloved companies over the past 39 years. In this episode, Tim and Kurt cover: • How getting rejected by two companies in one day crystallized Kurt's decision to become a stove manufacturer—despite having zero welding or engineering experience • Why hiring people with a "servant's heart" has created Travis Industries' legendary dealer loyalty and family-like culture across generations • Kurt's philosophy that fear of not doing enough drives innovation, from drawing inspiration in the Sistine Chapel to spotting fireplace ideas at P.F. Chang's Don't miss Kurt's insights on protecting specialty retailers in an Amazon world and why authentic relationships—not marketing studies—remain the foundation of building something that lasts. —— Links from this episode: Kurt Rumens Travis Industries Link (https://www.travisindustries.com/) WhyFire Link - https://whyfire.com —— Watch this podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Fnx_LIjIfwY Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fire-time-podcast/id1433804268 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4vHdzg48bE5qFf0KjMeMej?si=7b6cae3923d348f2 Read The Fire Time Magazine: https://www.itsfiretime.com/magazine Subscribe to The Fire Time Magazine: https://itsfiretime.com/subscribe Support The Fire Time Podcast financially: https://www.itsfiretime.com/join

It was six in the morning when George's roommate burst into his room and said the words no Catholic expects to hear.The Pope was dead.In the days that followed, George found himself grieving more than he expected. And in prayer, a strange idea kept returning, one that didn't make much practical sense: Go to Rome.A few phone calls and a very uncomfortable flight later, he was standing in St. Peter's Square with thousands of pilgrims watching the chimney above the Sistine Chapel.Before leaving home, he had thrown an American flag into his bag almost as an afterthought.He didn't think he'd need it.

Happy Day 1 of Shark Week!Today, we're on the ground at Milan Fashion Week. There were debuts from Meryll Rogge at Marni, Maria Grazia Chiuri at Fendi, and – most anticipated of all – Demna at Gucci. Nicole Phelps, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue Italia Francesca Ragazzi, and Vogue contributor Luke Leitch were there to take it all in, and The Run-Through was right there with them.The question going into the Gucci show was: who is Demna now? After a decade of deconstruction and conceptual provocation at Balenciaga—jackets made from trousers, outrageous couture wrapped in 50 meters of tulle—the designer stepped into one of fashion's most iconic houses with an eye towards what fashion needs now.At Marni, Meryll Rogge brought her knitwear expertise and a genuine emotional connection to the brand: she bought her first pair of Marni platforms with her first paycheck as an assistant at Marc Jacobs, and wore a Marni skirt to her brother's wedding as a teenager. At Moschino, Creative Director Adrian Appiolaza went back to his Argentine roots, finding inspiration in the landmarks, monuments and icons of his home country. The show closed with a model carrying a piggy bank purse and wearing shoes encrusted in euros. "It's not just about creativity, it's about finances," Appiolaza told Phelps backstage.Earlier in the week, Vogue World Milan was announced for September 22nd at the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II—"the Sistine Chapel of Shopping," as Leitch called it—with the theme of the human touch in the age of technology. Next stop, Paris!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture. Hosted by Chloe Malle, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue U.S.; Chioma Nnadi, Head of British Vogue; and Nicole Phelps, Director of Vogue Runway, each episode features the latest fashion news and exclusive designer and celebrity interviews.
