    Lauren Caris Cohan: Reformation Chief Creative Officer and Filmmaker

    Lauren Caris Cohan is a filmmaker and the chief creative officer of the chic and sustainable womenswear brand Reformation. Lauren got her start as a styling assistant at Free People in Philadelphia in the late 2000s, eventually working her way up to the title of artistic director. While looking to pursue a newfound interest in screenwriting, she was given carte blanche to create a series of narrative short films for the brand. In 2017, she left the company to look for new opportunities to explore filmmaking. She consistently worked on her projects, creating short films, writing scripts, and co-founding a creative services agency called Lolly Would. In 2017, she co-founded the industry-disrupting lingerie brand Cuup, again bringing her distinctive creative flair to craft the storytelling around the start-up. In 2020, she was brought in by Reformation to consult on projects, and in 2022, she was appointed the role of chief creative officer. In her time as CCO, she’s guided Reformation through some truly amazing collaborations—from the New York City Ballet to Monica Lewinsky.

    Geo Rutherford: Artist, Author, and Spooky Lakes Creator

    Geo Rutherford is a popular TikTok creator and author of the new book Spooky Lakes: 25 Strange and Mysterious Lakes That Dot Our Planet. Geo started her career as a high school art teacher in the Midwest, creating engaging and thoughtful art curricula for her students. She eventually decided to get her master’s in arts education at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Upon moving, she fell in love with the Great Lakes and their unique role in our ecosystem. (She even based her thesis art show on them.) When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, she started posting videos on TikTok, and one of her first-ever videos about her Great Lakes–inspired art went viral. She then leveraged her background in arts education with her newfound limnology hobby and posted more about lakes, telling informative, entertaining stories about the oddest and coolest lakes worldwide. This fall, she published her book, which Kirkus Reviews calls “a chilling but thrilling primer for budding limnologists,” and continued her annual TikTok series, Spooky Lake Month, in October.

    Scarlett Johansson: Actor, Director, and Co-Founder of The Outset

    Scarlett Johansson is an actor, director, producer, and co-founder of the skincare company The Outset. She began acting at age nine and continued to work steadily through adolescence and beyond, making films alongside industry legends like Robert Redford and taking on increasingly ambitious roles like the titular character in Girl With the Pearl Earring. Her career climbed to new heights in the last decade, as she was nominated for Academy Awards for the films Jojo Rabbit and Marriage Story, and played the lethal superhero Black Widow in the Marvel movie franchise. But after years as an accomplished actress, she knew that she wanted to expand her horizons and use some of her hard-earned expertise for her own projects. She then founded her own production company, These Pictures, and in 2022, co-founded the skincare company, The Outset, to provide solutions for adult acne and other skin issues that had plagued her for years. The brand, which launched on Amazon and QVC earlier this year, has come to be known for its effective ingredients and simple, nonirritating formulas. As if that wasn’t enough, this year, Scarlett directed her first feature film, Eleanor the Great, starring the 94-year-old acting legend June Squibb.

    The Who What Wear Podcast: Inside Anora’s Hyperrealistic Sex Worker Costumes With Costume Designer Jocelyn Pierce

    Jocelyn Pierce is the costume designer of Sean Baker’s Palme d’Or–winning film, Anora. The film follows an atypical Cinderella story of a sex worker from Brooklyn and the son of a Russian oligarch. As part of her research, Pierce spent time in Brighton Beach, New York, where the film is set, to get a sense of the world she was re-creating. She even invited the exotic dancers who participated in the film to use their own clothes as costumes. Anora was widely released on October 18 and is already garnering awards buzz. Pierce joins us this week to talk about her feelings-driven philosophy on costume design, why she’s an indie girl at heart, and Anora’s costume references to the American dream.

    Drew Afualo: TikTok Sensation, Author, and Podcaster

    Drew Afualo is a podcaster, author, and immensely popular TikTok creator. Drew studied sports journalism in college and originally aspired to be an on-air sports anchor. After graduating from the University of Hawaii at Mānoa, she worked in PR before landing a digital content creator job at the NFL. At first, it seemed like a dream job, but the position wasn’t all it was cracked up to be, and in January 2020, she was let go. When the pandemic hit, she was living at home with her parents and feeling further away than ever from her career dreams. One day, she started posting videos on TikTok on a whim. Viewers were immediately drawn to her hilarious, perfectly articulated takedowns of misogynistic comments. Her following grew quickly, at times gaining over 100,000 followers every couple of days. In the years since, she’s continued to grow her audience and now has over 8 million followers on TikTok. Drew’s also started two hit podcasts and authored a best-selling book, Loud: Accept Nothing Less Than the Life You Deserve. This year, she was named on The Hollywood Reporter’s List of Most Influential Influencers.
