About this episode
It’s hard to overstate Demna’s influence on fashion. From chunky “ugly” sneakers to oversized silhouettes dominating street style , Demna’s vision at Balenciaga has arguably reshaped the industry forever. In the lead-up to his final couture show for Balenciaga—happening next week in Paris—Nicole Phelps invites Vogue Runway’s senior fashion news editor Laia Garcia-Furtado and fashion journalist and critic Sarah Mower to reflect on the legacy of Demna’s tenure . They trace his rise as a relatively unknown designer at Vetements to a global force who redefined luxury at Balenciaga. The conversation also explores what might lie ahead as Demna steps into his new role as creative director at Gucci . Plus, Chioma and Chloe break down the biggest headlines of the week—from Anna Wintour’s announcement that she’s stepping down as editor-in-chief to Jonathan Anderson’s buzzworthy debut for Dior Homme in Paris .
