This year has been one of reflection. And when looking back, one can’t help but also look forward. As we begin to emerge from our Covid quarantines, we’re wondering what we can expect from the fashion industry. This week, we discuss the big themes we expect to see and the trends we think will continue. Sustainability, the rise of ecommerce, exceptional personal service, inclusion and diversity, resale, quality over quantity and cyclical fashion all have a place moving forward. And we couldn’t...

Futuristic meets fetishism, Thierry Mugler’s designs have always stood out among his peers. His ability to craft garments that feel all at once relevant and yet still futuristic almost 30 years after their creation is impressive to say the least. This week, we take a look back on his career and most memorable shows - and there were a lot to choose from. We also take a look at what he’s been up to lately, #Muglarized. Plus in Style Snacks, Gucci gives us a talk show, Kris Van Assche is out at ...

Luxury conglomerates are commonplace now, but back in the 1980’s the idea was laughable. Why would you amass so many brands under one umbrella? What benefit could that possibly serve? Well if you’re Bernard Arnault or Francois Pinault, I’d say the benefits (or profits rather) have been sizeable to say the least. This week we take a look at what you should do when you buy (or relaunch) a brand and the luxury powerhouses behind some of the biggest acquisitions. Plus in Style Snacks, we chat abo...

What does your favorite piece of clothing mean to you? What memories does it invoke? Has it become more than just clothing? Netflix’s new series Worn Stories, based on the book by Emily Spivack, explores just that. Organized by themes, the show takes a look at people’s deep connection to what they wear. This week we reflect on the series and our own Worn Stories. Listen in to hear what we consider to be the most meaningful piece in our closets and how it ended up there. Plus in Style Snacks, ...

Hey Upper East Siders, we’re calling all Gossip Girl fans to join us this week as we take a look back at some of the show’s most memorable looks and the lasting impact of the now iconic show. Few other shows have captured a character’s essence as well as this show did. I mean, you say Blair Waldorf and you immediately think headband. Chuck Bass? Velvet blazer and cravat. Serena van der Woodsen? Boho chic jetsetter. We also muse on what to expect from the reboot and designers we need to see on...

It’s our birthday episode! After a year of lockdown, we tentatively decided to venture out into the real world for some in person shopping. Of course, we made sure to do so in a responsible manner complete with double masks and an appointment to avoid overcrowding. Our first (and only) stop was Mod + Jo, a boutique jewelry company with their only brick and motor store in Dallas’s Bishop Arts District. Listen in to hear our experience and personal picks, including Liz’s permanent addition. We ...

With another busy fashion month behind us, we wanted to take a minute to catch up on some Style Snacks. First, we reflect on the incredible career and loss of Elsa Peretti, legendary Tiffany jewelry designer. We also discuss the controversial hiring and eventual firing of Alexi McCammond at Teen Vogue. In more positive news, Anouck Duranteau-Loeper was named the head of the Chambre Syndicale de la Mode Féminine, the governing body of women’s fashion in France. Then it’s time for designer news...

Hello ski vibes! A seemingly unlikely combo, we saw a ton of ski lodge, parka vibes coming out of Paris this Fall. But luckily it was balanced with the city’s usual level of aloof chicness, so thank goodness for that. Listen in to hear how our brackets shaped up with our final six pics, Each x Other, Elie Saab, Louis Vuitton, Dawei Studio, Courreges and Miu Miu. We also discuss Thom Browne, Dior, Chanel, Schiaparelli and Givenchy. Then in Style Snacks, we unpack the Meghan and Harry int...

Why is it that Milan is always where things fall apart? This season was no different with our first no score show of the season. It wasn’t all rough going though. Listen in to hear the winners and losers for our picks: Drome, Alabama Muse, Marco Rambaldi, MSGM, OOF Wear and mooRER. And we’re finally able to round out New York with Alejandra Alonso Rojas. Plus in Style Snacks, we dissect the Andre Leon Talley house drama, talk all things acquisition with OTB buying Jil Sander, Kering taking a ...

London was probably our biggest wildcard this season as both our brackets were stacked with unfamiliar designers. Lucky for us, our picks served up some surprisingly fun, quirky and want to wear now looks. Listen in to hear our reviews for JORDANLUCA, Jamie Wei Huang, A.W.A.K.E Mode, Edward Crutchley and 16Arlington. And we have to give a special callout to Lupe Gajardo for serving up the funniest digital presentation we’ve ever seen. Seriously, it’s the perfect antidote to an industry that c...
