The hype is real and we’re leaning into it.  The Devil Wears Prada 2 arrives in cinemas this weekend, and everyone’s pulling up for the sharp shoulders, the impossible standards, and the intoxicating mythology of it all. Unless ofcourse, they’re busy at the hideous skirt convention. 

For those who want to extend the feeling beyond the credits roll, these are the podcasts keeping the industry’s most compelling conversations alive: 

The Cutting Room Floor

Hosted by designer Recho Omondi, this podcast takes a candid approach to the industry’s most important conversations, tackling pressing issues including environmental and challenges in fashion, alongside behind-the-scenes perspectives from figures like Law Roach.  Unfiltered and consistently sharp.

Articles of Interest

Producer Avery Trufelman brings a broadcaster’s instinct to the peculiarities of the clothing industry, focusing on the objects themselves. An hour-long conversation about zips is never dull when it evokes shared history, culture, technology, and identity. 

Chiffon

Launched in 2017 by French fashion journalist Valérie Tribes, Chiffon has accumulated over 10 million listens by giving voice to women from all walks of life to discuss their personal relationship with fashion and elegance.  Conversational in tone but rigorous in its curiosity, it is the podcast equivalent of a very good lunch in Paris.

Fashion No Filter

Hosted by fashion journalists Camille Charriere and Monica Ainley, Fashion No Filter offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the fashion industry actually operates.  Frank, funny, and refreshingly free of the gloss that most industry coverage applies by default.
