Anna Dello Russo is a fashion force of nature. To the uneducated, she is the eternal star of the concrete catwalk. The colorful, upbeat and sometimes outrageous outfits she wears to the fashion weeks she attends are always the must get shots for the photographers that stalk the streets outside the show venues.
Steven Kolb and I have traveled in the same circles for years. But until this podcast, we never really had the chance to have a deep dive discussion about life in general and more specifically, life in fashion.

At first blush, the floral dress might not be thought of as a wardrobe icon in the same way as, say, a blazer, a crisp white shirt or a little black dress.

Lily Rose Depp is a young woman who has spent her life moving between worlds. Daughter of the iconic French singer Vanessa Paradis and Hollywood movie star Johnny Depp, she has adopted the best aspects of both cultures into her character.
Eugenia de la Torriente is the incredibly articulate and fashion savvy editor in chief of Vogue Spain and is considered to be one of the most respected fashion voices in Spain. Before she got her current gig at Vogue last year, she was editor-in-chief of the Spanish edition of Harper’s Bazaar, as well as fashion editor of El Pais, and editor of El Pais Semanal.
As far as first impressions go Paul Andrew knows how to make an impact. On the top floor of the Salvatore Ferragamo headquarters in Milan he greets me inside a giant glass veranda. There, the city’s rooftops frame an impressive display of his first shoe collection for the house.
The clothing that Phoebe Philo creates for Celine has often been described as wearable artwork. She elevates the everyday wardrobe of modern women to a place where it feels both relevant and yet revolutionary. And from the beginning of her time at the house she has found creative ways to incorporate inspirations from other artists into her sartorial universe.
Louis Vuitton is taking its “Volez, Voguez, Voyagez – Louis Vuitton” exhibition on the road. Fittingly its first stop is Japan, a country that has been a font of inspiration for the house spanning its entire 162 years of existence.
One of the most striking things about meeting the French actress Adèle Exarchopoulos for the first time is her open and raw beauty. She has an unaffected splendor that comes not just from her lush chestnut hair, hazel gold-flecked eyes and full bee-stung lips.
