Listen Later

Prabal Gurung is a world-renowned Nepalese American fashion designer who established his eponymous label in 2009. In this episode, Gurung joins Senior Fashion and Social Media Editor Tara Gonzalez to discuss the origins of his brand—from his childhood in Nepal and India to becoming a prominent New York–based designer—and his newly published memoir, Walk Like a Girl (order a copy here!). He also shares insights into his design philosophy of “West meets East” rather than “East meets West,” his experience dressing notable figures like Michelle Obama and Sarah Jessica Parker, and the role that joy, resilience, and authenticity play in his work.
