Lauren Sherman on the Past, Present, & Future of Fashion Media
Description
Today, Sali is joined by Lauren Sherman, one of the most prominent voices in fashion journalism. The Fashion Correspondent at Puck, writer behind the Line Sheet newsletter, and host of the Fashion People podcast has her pulse on the industry’s major players, insights into how business is done, and—most importantly—is the expert at distilling it to the masses.
An adept interviewer, Lauren has the tables flipped today as Sali gets the real story about how she’s built her career. Take a listen for:
- how she fell in love with fashion through Jane Pratt’s Sassy magazine.
- what it was like breaking into the fashion industry, learning which jobs to accept and which to reject.
- her advice for knowing your worth and not being attached to what your end goal looks like.
- how she approaches her reporting at Puck, and how it’s indicative of a new era of media.
- why The Devil Wears Prada is an “accurate” depiction of fashion, and so much more.
