There are many celebrity fashion brands out there. Jessica Simpson's eponymous brand was the first celebrity line to crack one billion dollars in sales. Draper James by Reese Witherspoon. I could go on and on. Then, of course, there are literally a million and one celebrity beauty brands. Name any female celebrity and they probably had a beauty brand. However, most of these brands use the celebrity as the face of the company, and the products they try to hock don’t really matter. It's really just a ploy to make money. But what about those select celebrities who were able to truly crossover into the fashion world, and truly make good products? Is that even possible? I explore that idea in this episode.

Everyone is a mixture of both feminine and masculine energies. In the past couple of years, I feel as though feminine energy has been looked down on. With books coming out like Girl Boss or Lean In, females today are told to be a leader, be assertive, and take up more space. All qualities which I'm perfectly okay with, but what if you're just not built that way? What if you're more nurturing, soft-spoken, or intuitive? Why do women who lead with their femininity get harangued on and told to change their ways? I think females who have more feminine energy have just as good of a chance to succeed as those who are more masculine energy facing. Feminine energy is the world of Susie Cave and her brand, The Vampire's Wife.

Fashion has always been obsessed with It Girls. The definition of an It Girl has evolved over time, but the same je ne sais quoi quality to them has remained the same. In this episode, I explore the life of Alexa Chung, fashion's ultimate It Girl, as a case study for the larger phenomenon. I break down how muses are related to fashion, how are It Girl are tied muses, and how muses fit into the larger feminist landscape.

Prada is now firmly planted in our modern consciousness as a bonified luxury brand. In this episode I examine the meaning of Prada in pop culture in order to understand the brand even further. I look at references from high brow art like Prada Marfa to popcorn movies like The Devil Wears Prada. In the second half of the episode I get into the origin story of Prada's sister brand Miu Miu and tease apart her story one hair at a time.

Prada started off as a humble leather goods maker in Milan. Built on the mission to craft the best leather goods possible and worn only by the elites. Just 60 years later it became a huge force to be reckoned with all thanks to the creative direction of one woman: Miuccia Prada. Who is she and what makes her so influential in the fashion world? I dive deep into Miuccia's story and the company she helped make successful.

We can all agree that Luxury fashion has a certain type of allure to it that doesn't follow any type of logic or sense. I mean sock shoes by Balenciaga that cost nearly 1000 dollars? As crazy as it is, that's why it is so beautiful. Luxury is creativity expressed in a tangible item. In other words, it's something that comes from the human soul. But what happens when greed gets in the way? In this episode, I seek to pull back the curtain on the luxury fashion industry and give you the truth. Fashion your seatbelts!
