Customer Reviews
One to relisten.
Avery’s cadence, delivery, thoughtfulness, and perspective keep me coming back to each episode to listen again and again. I’m a professional seamstress and there’s nothing more thought provoking yet comforting to listen to while working. Thank you to Avery for making such amazing content!
Keep religion out of it
Love the show. But you lost me when you told me that I should wear what “god” tells me to
Fascinating deep dive into fashion
Incredible research, well presented, lots of great bits and pieces, keeps it interesting. Loved the season on Ivy. Learned lots. Keep up the great work. 🥰
