STATEMENTS: A Critical Fashion Podcast Philippa Nesbitt & Katie Wilkes

Philippa and Katie speak with clothing designer Emily Morabito, founder of the adaptive activewear label Remedy. We spoke about her introduction and movement into adaptive design, the situation of clothing access for disabled people, and her approach to design and sustainability.

 In this week’s episode, creative director, stylist and artist Yanran Xiong (@pistachica) talks about the attributes of temporality, hype and glamour manifest in the fashion industry.

In this episode, Philippa and Katie speak over Zoom in the midst of the pandemic with journalist Sophie Ross. Ross rose to Twitter stardom when she put pieces of what eventually became Arielle Charnas' Covid-19 scandal together. Since then, Ross has continually painted full--and accurate--pictures of the transgressions that are made, and too often ignored, by some of Instagram's most influential influencers. 

Philippa interviews Arianna Lauren, founder of the beauty brand Quw'utsun' Made. Arianna and Philippa discuss her attempt to meet the needs of her community while preserving the traditional knowledge of the Coast Salish Nation, in order to share knowledge and pass it on to the next generations.
