Anna talks with Natalie Nudell, fashion historian and the co-principal investigator of the Ruth Finley Collection, about Natalie's recently-released documentary 'Calendar Girl.' In the documentary, and in today's episode, Natalie shows how Ruth Finley, through her publication the 'Fashion Calendar,' helped establish New York City as the hub of global fashion in the 20th century. Anna and Natalie also discuss changing trends in fashion and attempt to define the 'Adam Sandler-core' look.
