EP261: A 9:30pm Conversation: SS27 Menswear, Creativity & Change

<p>Today’s episode is a little different from the one originally planned. Due to ongoing technical issues, I decided at 9:30pm to record a conversation exploring the SS27 menswear collections, from Pitti Uomo and Milan through to Paris.</p><p>Paris was the highlight for me this season, with inspiring collections from Dries Van Norton, Issey Miyake, Maison Kitsuné, Soshiotsuki, and Taakk showcasing incredible craftsmanship, texture, colour, and creativity.</p><p>Beyond the collections, this episode explores the wider questions around menswear today: how people find opportunities within the industry, the value of fashion education versus experience, and whether different career paths and backgrounds are truly embraced. I would love to hear your thoughts: Is education important in menswear, or does experience hold greater value? Does the industry create space for people at different stages of their careers, or are some voices being left behind?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>
