Hello Fellow Junkies, we're excited to celebrate our first year of hosting this podcast. Like we said, this was a long time coming, from joking around about doing this podcast to actually coming together and doing it. Now a year later, we're still going at and getting more comfortable as well. We're doing our best in bringing you great things that you might have missed in the media and some different point perspective.
This episode we discuss Louis Vuitton's Menswear division pulling anything and everything relating to Michael Jackson in the midst of the HBO documentary scandal. Which is interesting because their LV F/W19 collection was in many ways an homage to the late entertainer. We move to Fashion and the disable and their lack of apparel targetted to them. We discuss the fashion part of the latest College Entrance scandal in US history and the effects it has on fashion. We close with a lengthy conversation about the relaunch of the Baby Phat brand.

This is Gustavo, writing this podcasts summary. I felt the need to write this as an homage to the truly last Emporer of French Fashion. As you all know, Karl Lagerfeld passed away about a week or so ago, and with that comes the end of a tremendous legacy, an innovative designer, and lastly perhaps the last FASHION designer ever left. Obviously, not discrediting any of the currently established designers but Karl Lagerfeld was on his league of his own. Over 50 years as a designer and an extensive resume, that Lagerfeld shaped the fashion world of the 20th and 21st century. Helming the French Houses of Chanel, Chloé, Fendi and his own. He truly understood the demands of the clientele.
I can say with all honesty that the Chanel Haute Couture and Martier's d'Art shows were the most inspiring. Lagerfeld really pushed the envelope for the brand, always finding new ways to reinterpret the houses DNA. Showing us new ways to wear tweed, the combination of black and white, and the many ways to accessorize jewelry. A big Bravo! to the production team. They have turned the Grand Palais into many amazing production sets that were well paired with each collection. Which was your favorite? The Chanel Grocery Store? Versailles Gardens? The inside of a casino? Passitirere? the iceberg? or the feeling of sitting under the Eiffel Tower? Whichever it is, they are surely embedded in our minds.
But for the rest of us that never truly met him and only know of him through videos, print and social media, we have his legacy to inspire us for the next 50 years. Lagerfeld would have wanted the current fashion designers to keep looking forward, and that is what we will do.
Fashion Junkies!!

Hello Fellow Junkies!
Gustavo and Marting are back, after a long too long of a break, and they pick up right where they left off. The hosts are back with their opinions about the latest fashion stories. The hosts discuss the Frances Valentine Ad Campaign honoring Kate Spade, and they more to Virgil's first ad campaign for Louis Vuitton's men's wear. Then the hosts get into a discussion of plagiarism in the fashion world and who really is to blame or is it even worth the commotion. They weigh in on the scandal that included Off White, CLRSBABY and Pyer Moss.

Hello, Fellow Fashion Junkies. We have reached the end of the year, and with that, we have brought you the final podcast of the season/year. We can say that these hosts had a blast with each recording. We promise to record more, bring your more content via social media and many more interviews, currently talking about a new guest.
This episode we bring you the latest PR stunt from Palessi or Payless. The Hosts talk about the sensitivity of our current times and the Dolce & Gabbana scandal, as well as the Ted Baker one. They chat about the return of Marc Jacobs and the what the heck is Phoebe Philo. Not that she is missing but she's been mentioned in the media. They also have a lengthy discussion of the Ted Talk BOF aired of Cambridge Analytics and the influence brands had for 2016 and possible 2020 presidential election. (Scroll down to see the video we discuss.)
Thank you for a marvelous year and we're getting ready for a new one!! Many more to come and hopefully more things as well.

Hello, Subscribers... We Have Reached Our 10th Episode!! Wooo-Hoooo!!
We are excited to have done 10 episodes thus far, there will be one more before the year ends. This time around Matina & Gustavo play catch-up since they haven't seen each other in a few weeks. They dive into Victoria's Secret Fashion show, in particular, the famous Million Dollar Bra. They discuss Meghan's Stella McCartney wedding reception dress. Moving into Harry Style, Lady Gaga and Gucci being the 2019 MET Gala Co-Chairs for the Fashion Camp theme. Ending with Uniqlo and Alexander Wang's fitness collaboration.
All this, while being silly and getting off topic a few times. It was all too fun to not include it in.

Hello Fellow Fashion Junkies!! Gustavo & Martina are back with an amazing episode after taking a break and the Holiday season around the corner. I am sure they're coming up with something to fill in the gaps. This episode was recorded 48 hours before the big election of November 6 in the USofA. They discuss fashion's latest trend of political merchandise. If there's something fashion teaches us is that trends are all about the "right merchandise at the right time". They also discuss Revlon's first woman's CEO and Balmain's venture into Haute Couture.
Thank you to Colin with all his tech help! He's the unsung hero to our podcast. Maybe we'll snap a picture one day!

As we're putting this post together, we hear the news that Aretha Franklin has passed away. The Queen of Soul has gone to heaven to sit on her rightful throne. Franklin has left us an amazing legacy, a voice for the generations, a civil rights activist that broke global boundaries.
I think this post is appropriate as we the Fashion Junkies have a conversation about Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2018. Martia discusses the amazing creations of Ralph & Russo, Ellie Saab's structured and traditional, Chanel's edgy, baroque and new young Hollywood silhouettes, and finally, Dolce and Gabbana's Alta Moda in Lake Cuomo. Gustavo discusses the return of traditional feminity at Christian Dior, new couture techniques at Fendi's more than fur show, and a simple, elegant yet futuristic homage tribute to Hubert de Givenchy by Clare Waight Keller.
We also discuss Air Jordans designed by Vogue's Anna Wintour, Burberry torching $36 millions of dollars, and Randa Accessories biding for the Perry Ellis brand.

Well, this episode is dedicated to them. We sort of interviewed them a la Vogue's 73 Questions. Instead of following them around in their homes, we sat them down and have them fill out the questionnaire.
