Fashion People

Lauren’s guest is writer and filmmaker Taylore Scarabelli, formerly of Interview Magazine. They discuss her new short, The Dress, which is premiering at The Downtown. They also dig into the Steven Kolb fallout, London Fashion Week, Dario Vitale at Armani, Glenn Martens leaving Diesel, and plenty more.

Lauren’s guest is GQ global editorial director Adam Baidawi, fresh off his first Tom Cruise magazine interview in 20 years. They talk through that shirtless cover, why he steered clear of the Scientology questions, his path from Melbourne freelancer to British GQ to succeeding Will Welch, and his plan to widen GQ’s aperture without losing its edge. Plus, why he thinks these legacy fashion brands should actually be making real money.

In this supersized episode, Lauren is joined first by Chris Black and Jason Stewart to discuss the Goneies, their live awards show happening at Racket NYC, as well as the whole Steven Kolb–PETA saga. Then, Sports Gossip queen Madeline Hill hops on to discuss the U.S. Open looks on and off the court, NYFW, Anthony Vaccarello leaving Saint Laurent, Joe Burrow’s custom Alo trousers, Gisele on iD, and the Tom Brady of it all.

Lauren’s guest is Irish-born, New York-based designer Maria McManus. They chat about her scrappy path through EDUN, Club Monaco, and three years working alongside Tory Burch before launching her own label right as the pandemic hit. They also discuss why she still swears by wholesale even as direct-to-consumer becomes non-negotiable, and the French lace, Lower East Side artisans, and Irish craft details behind her "no BS" collections.

Lauren’s guest is The Ringer’s Amanda Dobbins, host of Jam Session and The Big Picture. They discuss the dynamics of film festivals, fashion on and off the red carpets, their experience at the premiere of Primetime, their tour of the Fondazione Dries Van Noten’s first exhibit, “The Only True Protest Is Beauty,” with Dries himself, Virginie Viard’s Chanel tell-all, and lots more. Plus, Alastair McKimm joins Lauren to discuss the launch of Prototype, his new magazine and platform. They chat Prototype contributor Tom Sachs’ homemade Chanel store on Centre Street, the genius of Peter Miles, making a Pierre Castignola chair, zines, how Alastair put together Issue Zero’s contributor and story list, and even more.
