Love this podcast concept! It’s fascinating how everyday clothing is connected to history and culture. Really engaging and enjoyable to listen to. http://realcornor.com/shop/burberry-nova-check-cashmere-scarf/
please would you help me delve deeper? remind me of the Marie Antoinette memories book mentioned? love your work! best podcast ever.
I was listening to a completely different podcast about decor. To my surprise, within the first minute or so, I was listening to a description of Barbie's business outfit that converts to an evening outfit. I was stunned because just a few days ago I also heard about it on this podcast!
❤️🙏🌹

Please be the voice of Iranians. They're taking down the internet and KILLING AND TORTURING INNOCENT PEOPLE. please be our voice
My grandmother worn cats eyes glasses and they were not a sexy or classy look at all.
Wealth, elegance, contentment, and knowledge are all connected with gold. There are so many positive things to say about the hue that it's no surprise that it's a favorite among certain brides. For this style of excellent attire, go to https://www.awbridal.com/. If you're shopping for dresses, this site has an excellent selection at a reasonable price.
Great talk! So unfortunate that the mic quality is mediocre :(
Lil Peep T-shirts incorporate the entire collection of signature Peep designs and transforms them into soft and cool summer clothing (https://lilpeepmerch.net/product-category/shirt/). It evokes the same edgy style that the legendary Sus boy radiated. If you're a committed lover of the peep culture, you should collect everything. Wear the sad boy shirt and dance around in incredible luxury and comfort. Most importantly, keep his memories alive. Rip lil peep.
ouch huge bummer i had to listen to more than 2 minutes of obnoxious TelaNovela advertisements before the actual podcast.
Fantastic guest, so interesting to listen to not only the history, but also how she has recreated period garments.
Love this way of covering the history of fashion, and I found the history of fans really interesting.
Loved this episode so much I bought both books. Thank you for a wonderful podcast. It has opened my eyes to fashion, history, culture and encouraged my creative side. keep up the amazing work.
Just a compliment to the hosts to say how much I enjoy this podcast. It's one of my favourites. I love all things clothes and I've learned so much by listening!
Amazing! What a fantastic man and interview!
Swooning over every episode. Love your work ladies!!!!!
OMG, I thank God for you ladies and this podcast. I am about to show my first full collection in May and I was trying to decide if I wanted to attempt to do my 12 looks by hand or sewing machine. I am establishing a haute couture label and brand but starting out I do not have the luxurious fabrics so I wanted to at least hone the craft of hand sewing. This episode has lifted a great burden off of my heart and mind. Thank you ladies!!!!
Well done lovely to listen to thank you.
I recently stumbled upon your podcast......and I must say that I am completely addicted to it!
