    Pleats to Plissé: From Ancient Egypt to Dior [Ep:2]

    Pleats are one of the oldest trick in fashion's book; we're talking 5,000 years old, and they're still one of the most technically demanding things a garment can do. We're kicking things off with Pleats to Plissé: the first of two pleat episodes focused on pleats as surface texture — the kind that move, shimmer, and feel almost alive on the body.

    Welcome to Sarcurious! [Ep:1]

    Welcome to the first episode of Sarcurious, the fashion podcast that hopes to get you curious about your wardrobe. In our intro episode, we catch up a bit, share how we met, how our friendship grew through the stories we helped others tell, and how that eventually led to talking about the stories we tell through our clothes.  You’ll hear a bit about what pulls us toward fashion and its storytelling abilities, plus why we care about the stories behind our clothing. From there, we walk through the three-part structure you’ll hear in every episode: history, cultural context, and our personal “why,” so you can start seeing your own wardrobe as a story you’re actively telling.
