  • Ana and Stevie contemplate handsomeness when it comes to getting dressed. It's a word so often associated with conventionally good-looking men, but why should it be? Together with two special guests, they consider handsomeness as a descriptor to be claimed regardless of where one is on the gender spectrum.

    Georgeous Michael talks us through transformational accoutrements, while Dazed Fashion Editor Emma Hope Allwood contemplates Le Smoking and handsome women in art. 

    An array of voices discuss their favourite season for dressing in, and there's also talk of ascribing certain items of clothing as 'masculine' or 'feminine'. Do we still need to do that in 2019? Stevie and Ana try to figure it all out.

  • In this episode, Stevie Mackenzie-Smith and Ana Kinsella talk about folk and what it means to dress with one eye on where you’re from: Quintessentially British Laura Ashley, so-called ‘sailor pants’ and regional dress. Plus, as always, endless eBay hunts.

    And we meet Alannah Eileen, a photographer from Orkney, about the importance of community, rural fashion and what happens to your style when you move to the big city.

  • In this episode, Ana and Stevie are mulling over BOYISH dressing. Ana pays a visit to see Claire Marie Healy, Deputy Editor at Dazed & Confused, who shares the charm of her thrifted synthetic zip-up top, which makes her feel like an extra from Freaks and Geeks. There's also talk of clothes on film, feeling obliged to strive for femininity, and dressing your age (whatever that means).

    Oh, and Stevie has had a personal style-related crisis after getting her clothes out of her storage unit. Great!

  • In this episode, we consider the theme of ENDURING. What is it about certain items of clothes that make us return to them over and over? And what about when there are limits on how many clothes we can own? What makes the cut and stays in your life, and what doesn't?

    Sirena Bergman, a London-based journalist talks to Stevie about how living on a houseboat means coming up with ingenious space-related solutions. And Francis McKee, a writer, curator and lecturer who lives in Glasgow tells us about the democracy of clothing via a self-imposed uniform he has worn since 1978…

  • This episode, Ana and Stevie are thinking about 'chic', and specifically how spotting a chic person 'in the wild' is what makes people-watching so thrilling! They also hear from Colleen Hill, a curator at the Museum at FIT in New York about the pleasure she gets from working with this chic fashion archive, and how she gets dressed to work alongside such a collection.

  • Welcome back to Season 2 of Layers! We've missed you. In Episode 1, Ana and Stevie are thinking about dressing fabulously, and whether that's possible in an everyday context. They visit a charming cottage in Stratford-upon-Avon to meet a very fabulous older woman, Sarah Hosking, who is 78 years old and attributes resourcefulness and dressing joyfully to a well-lived life. 

    Sarah Hosking is the founder of Hosking Houses Trust, a charity that supports women writers over the age of 40 by providing them with a place to stay and work. You can donate to this wonderful cause here: [http://hoskinghouses.co.uk/](http://hoskinghouses.co.uk/)

  • In the final episode of this season, Ana and Stevie discuss conviction. How should I dress? Is there anything I can’t wear? How does a designer know how their work should look? And - can I bring myself to throw this out? 

    Writer and self-confessed hoarder of precious things Isabelle O’Carroll joins us for a panel discussion/group therapy on closet clear-outs and cashmere jumpers. And we meet designers Levi Palmer and Matthew Harding - aka the Shirt Boys - about how they started a fashion label off the back of a simple white shirt. Our final Loved and Lost comes from someone you might recognise…

    (It’s Stevie.)

  • In Episode 2, Stevie and Ana talk Encounters. A fleeting glimpse of a stylish stranger while on holiday, an ongoing friendship with the woman who works in the local boutique, or bumping into an enigmatic stranger in a Soho club: often it’s the chance encounters we have that can really influence how we think about clothes.
