    The Invasion of Celebrities and Influencers Into Fashion: The Olsen Twins Part 2

    There are many celebrity fashion brands out there. Jessica Simpson's eponymous brand was the first celebrity line to crack one billion dollars in sales. Draper James by Reese Witherspoon. I could go on and on. Then, of course, there are literally a million and one celebrity beauty brands. Name any female celebrity and they probably had a beauty brand. However, most of these brands use the celebrity as the face of the company, and the products they try to hock don’t really matter. It's really just a ploy to make money. But what about those select celebrities who were able to truly crossover into the fashion world, and truly make good products? Is that even possible? I explore that idea in this episode. dressherpodcast.com  https://www.instagram.com/dressherpodcast/ Music By Alexiaction

    An Exploration of Fashion It Girls: The Life and Career of Alexa Chung

    Fashion has always been obsessed with It Girls. The definition of an It Girl has evolved over time, but the same je ne sais quoi quality to them has remained the same.

I break down how muses are related to fashion, how are It Girl are tied muses, and how muses fit into the larger feminist landscape.  Dressherpodcast.com  IG: Dressherpodcast  Hosted by Michelle Cheng  Music by Alexiaction

    The Rise of Prada Part 2: Where Prada and Her Sister Brand Miu Miu Went Wrong

    Prada is now firmly planted in our modern consciousness as a bonified luxury brand. In this episode I examine the meaning of Prada in pop culture in order to understand the brand even further. I look at references from high brow art like Prada Marfa to popcorn movies like The Devil Wears Prada. In the second half of the episode I get into the origin story of Prada's sister brand Miu Miu and tease apart her story one hair at a time.  dressherpodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/dressherpodcast/ Written and hosted by Michelle Cheng  Music by Alexiaction

    The Rise of Prada Part 1: Miuccia Enters the Fashion World

    Prada started off as a humble leather goods maker in Milan. Built on the mission to craft the best leather goods possible and worn only by the elites. Just 60 years later it became a huge force to be reckoned with all thanks to the creative direction of one woman: Miuccia Prada. Who is she and what makes her so influential in the fashion world? I dive deep into Miuccia's story and the company she helped make successful.   dressherpodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/dressherpodcast/ Written and hosted by Michelle Cheng  Music by Alexiaction

    About the Business Side of Luxury Fashion...

    We can all agree that Luxury fashion has a certain type of allure to it that doesn't follow any type of logic or sense. I mean sock shoes by Balenciaga that cost nearly 1000 dollars? As crazy as it is, that's why it is so beautiful. Luxury is creativity expressed in a tangible item. In other words, it's something that comes from the human soul. But what happens when greed gets in the way? In this episode, I seek to pull back the curtain on the luxury fashion industry and give you the truth.
