The Man Who Dresses 35.9 Percent of America
Today on the pod, Lauren is joined by menswear designer Todd Snyder, whose chinos and linen shirts are beloved by pretty much every guy who cares, from San Vicente Bungalows to Inness. Fresh off of Todd’s New York Fashion Week show, they discuss his life in the designer trenches at Ralph Lauren, Old Navy, and J.Crew, what it was like to be a sartorially inclined kid growing up in Iowa in the 1980s, how he raised the money to open his brand, why he decided to sell his brand to the parent company of American Eagle, how to be profitable, what he wears to the airport, and plenty more.

Fashion in the Golden Age of Magazines and Sabato’s Farewell (Finally)
Lauren is joined by former 'Harper’s Bazaar' editors Cynthia True and Dennis Golonka, hosts of 'Blow-Up: When Liz Tilberis Transformed Bazaar.' (If you haven’t listened, you should.) They discuss what it was like to work at a glossy magazine in the 1990s (from the expense accounts to the dress code), how today’s fashion industry would be different if Liz were still around (she tragically died of cancer in 1999), and why they wanted to tell her story. Lauren also dips into what designer Sabato de Sarno’s sudden exit from Gucci means for parentco Kering.
