Denise Wingate is the costume designer behind the new Amazon show Daisy Jones & the Six. The series is an adaptation of the beloved book of the same title about a ’70s Laurel Canyon band whose catchy tunes and behind-the-scenes drama seemed to compete for the spotlight. Wingate is here to talk about her process in costuming actors such as Riley Keough and Suki Waterhouse, her own experiences that proved hugely influential, and how to source vintage like a pro. Plus, she shares her favorite project thus far in her epic filmography—which spans Cruel Intentions to Wedding Crashers—and what she hopes to land next.

In 2017, the outdoor space surrounding Allison Messner’s home in Northern California was destroyed by a devastating wildfire. In the aftermath, Allison and her husband decided to hire a landscape designer to help them rebuild their green space, but they quickly realized how difficult, long, and expensive the process was going to be. The two began developing an idea to make the process more efficient and accessible by incorporating new technology, and in 2018, they launched Yardzen, a digital landscape design and build platform. Today, the company operates in all 50 states with a network of hundreds of designers and architects. But before Allison disrupted the landscape industry, she reported as a journalist in Alaska, worked at a prestigious PR firm, was CMO of the tech company OpenDNS when it was acquired by Cisco for $635 million, and even started her own venture capital firm.
