    Handsome

    Ana and Stevie contemplate handsomeness when it comes to getting dressed. It's a word so often associated with conventionally good-looking men, but why should it be? Together with two special guests, they consider handsomeness as a descriptor to be claimed regardless of where one is on the gender spectrum. Georgeous Michael talks us through transformational accoutrements, while Dazed Fashion Editor Emma Hope Allwood contemplates Le Smoking and handsome women in art.  An array of voices discuss their favourite season for dressing in, and there's also talk of ascribing certain items of clothing as 'masculine' or 'feminine'. Do we still need to do that in 2019? Stevie and Ana try to figure it all out.  You can follow Emma Hope Allwood on Twitter @emmahopeall Georgeous Michael is on Instagram at @georgeousmichael Layers is produced by Lucy Dearlove https://lucydearlove.com/ Follow Layers on Instagram: https://instagram.com/layers.podcast Music: E's Jammy Jams - Arabian Sand (via YouTube Music Library), Kevin MacLeod - Aurea Carmina, Kevin MacLeod - Hard Boiled, Aaron Liebermann - Gypsy Stroll (via YouTube Music Library)

    Folk

    In this episode, Stevie Mackenzie-Smith and Ana Kinsella talk about folk and what it means to dress with one eye on where you’re from: Quintessentially British Laura Ashley, so-called ‘sailor pants’ and regional dress. Plus, as always, endless eBay hunts. And we meet Alannah Eileen, a photographer from Orkney, about the importance of community, rural fashion and what happens to your style when you move to the big city.  You can see Alannah’s work on her Instagram https://www.instagram.com/alannah.eileen/ and her website https://www.alannaheileen.com.

    Boyish

    In this episode, Ana and Stevie are mulling over BOYISH dressing. Ana pays a visit to see Claire Marie Healy, Deputy Editor at Dazed & Confused, who shares the charm of her thrifted synthetic zip-up top, which makes her feel like an extra from Freaks and Geeks. There's also talk of clothes on film, feeling obliged to strive for femininity, and dressing your age (whatever that means). Oh, and Stevie has had a personal style-related crisis after getting her clothes out of her storage unit. Great!

    Enduring

    In this episode, we consider the theme of ENDURING. What is it about certain items of clothes that make us return to them over and over? And what about when there are limits on how many clothes we can own? What makes the cut and stays in your life, and what doesn't? Sirena Bergman, a London-based journalist talks to Stevie about how living on a houseboat means coming up with ingenious space-related solutions. And Francis McKee, a writer, curator and lecturer who lives in Glasgow tells us about the democracy of clothing via a self-imposed uniform he has worn since 1978… You can find Sirena Bergman's writing monthly missives on dressing sustainably by signing up to her newsletter, Sartorially Happy: https://tinyletter.com/sartoriallyhappy You can follow Francis McKee on Twitter: https://twitter.com/francismckee Layers is produced by Lucy Dearlove https://lucydearlove.com/ Follow Layers on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/layers.podcast/ Music: E's Jammy Jams - Arabian Sand (via YouTube Music Library), Kevin MacLeod - Hard Boiled, Aaron Liebermann - Gypsy Stroll (via YouTube Music Library)

    Fabulous

    Welcome back to Season 2 of Layers! We've missed you. In Episode 1, Ana and Stevie are thinking about dressing fabulously, and whether that's possible in an everyday context.

    Conviction

    In the final episode of this season, Ana and Stevie discuss conviction. How should I dress? Is there anything I can’t wear? How does a designer know how their work should look? And - can I bring myself to throw this out?  Writer and self-confessed hoarder of precious things Isabelle O’Carroll joins us for a panel discussion/group therapy on closet clear-outs and cashmere jumpers. And we meet designers Levi Palmer and Matthew Harding - aka the Shirt Boys - about how they started a fashion label off the back of a simple white shirt. Our final Loved and Lost comes from someone you might recognise… (It’s Stevie.) Thanks for listening and join us later this year for more episodes!
