    137. Fashion In Focus: Edamburu Hair Style

    In this episode, we will be talking about Edamburu hairstyle worn by Mangbetu women in the early 20th century. Also called the tumburu style, it was popularized and fetishized by fashion designers and movies. We want to thank scholar Vicky Pass for allowing us to use her research for this episode.

My Go-To for Fashion Nerd-Dom

I always knew I liked fashion, but I didn’t really have any words to explain -why-. Enter Unraveled, the best fashion podcast for scholarly perspectives and interesting discussions. Seriously, the topics they cover are great, from gender politics to cultural appropriation to costumes in horror movies. I’m so glad this podcast exists. Five stars all around!

Gross sounds

Could be great content but who can hear it?

Uneven sound, one speaker has such low volume that in order to hear her the sound has to be turned up so high another one is crazy loud. I really wanted to hear the review of the Cardin exhibition, but it’s not going to happen here.
