    Introducing ‘The Debrief,’ a New Podcast hosted by Lauren Sherman

    In this weekly series,  BoF’s chief correspondent will go behind the scenes of the $2.5 trillion global fashion industry. 
    Fashion has the ability to move markets, shake up cultural norms and even transform society. But who — and what — are the forces driving major change?
    We’re answering that question on The Debrief, a new weekly podcast series from The Business of Fashion, where we go beyond the industry’s glossy veneer to understand how the fashion business is evolving, from the inside out.
    Hosted by BoF’s chief correspondent Lauren Sherman, The Debrief will be your guide into the megalablels, indie upstarts and unforgettable personalities shaping the $2.5 trillion global fashion industry. Each week, Lauren will take you through BoF Professional story —  in conversation with our correspondents and industry experts — to unpack the analysis and insights you need to know to navigate an industry undergoing rapid change.

    From the rise of direct-to-consumer disruptors, to the rapid consolidation of the luxury industry, to cultural shifts turning beauty upside down.
    BoF covers it all.

Valuable, educational & inspiring!

I’m excited for this new podcast from The Business of Fashion! The first episode was fantastic. As a young designer and entrepreneur in the industry, this, along with the others products and resources from BoF are so valuable, educative, relevant and inspiring. Thanks for such a great show!

Interviewer needs to work on his prop

Just finished the “Making of Ami.” I noticed that the interviewer constantly interrupts his guest. The guest was great and informative, so just let him finish!

The questions also weren’t great in guiding the overall narrative either. The podcast leaves a lo to be desired.

Interviewing is a skill

I was disappointed with this interview. There are so many choices of podcasts, the interviews need to be engaging, this one was not.
