    97. *TEASER* Milan & Paris SS26 Fashion Week Review with Hannah Rose-Tindle (FULL EPISODE ON PATREON)

    I am joined by Fashion Editor and Writer Hannah Rose Tindle to discuss the Milan and Paris SS26 Season. This fashion month felt like a lot; a lot of designer debuts, a lot of pressure and a lot of opinions! While Hannah and I felt overwhelmed by the whole thing, we did our best to try and understand where that pressure came from, who is a fashion critic in 2025, the state of luxury fashion, is the fashion ‘gimmick’ era over, Hedi Slimane's Mattheiu Blazy shade, why there are so many designer debuts and what’s at stake. And then we get into the shows. Not all but, a lot! Enjoy <3 Full episode on patreon: www.patreon.com/cantnotpodcast

    96. New York & London Fashion Week Review with Paige Rubin

    Free Episode covering the latest New York and London Fashion weeks with the delightfully perceptive @paigerubin of @taste____studio 🤎 Before we deep dive our favourite shows, @theprophetpizza ‘s (Rachel Tashjian) New York Post article When did New York Fashion Week Get So Boring? tempted us to make sense of how NYFW may have lost its lustre as we discuss the commercialisation of brands, the memorable yet short lived Fashion’s Night Out and some of the designers who were showing 25 years ago. We also get into how over referenced vintage has become on all scales of fashion, the need for designers to look forward and a few more hot topics! While we couldn’t cover everything we do our best to make it through a lot. There is an hour of us covering the following shows below (starting at 35:00 minutes in), the themes we have noticed so far and what we expect we will keep seeing for 2026 ✨ Enjoy <3 Sandy Liang Campillo Anna Sui Ashley Williams Tanner Fletcher Aaron Esh Simone Rocha Lii Grace Ling Chopova Lowena Johana Parv Tove Marques Almeida Eckhaus Latta
