SHOWstudio Interviews episodes

  • In Fashion: Tim Blanks, 2013
    Tim Blanks reflects on a career that never had any plan in this episode of In Fashion. Maybe it started with the allure of sex and decadence from Andy Warhol’s Factory. It certainly continued with weird music and animation jobs in other stages. Blanks shares how finding fashion as the place where spectacle is important, was important to him. From hair to music to stripped down garment runway, all those qualities tie into Tim Blanks’ essential checklist. He explains why he does what he does, why he continues to remain and why facilitating the information about great moments from greater talent is most important. This interview took place 16 Nov 2012.

  • In Fashion: Edward Buchanan, 2023

    In 1995, a young designer named Edward Buchanan was appointed as the first design director of Bottega Veneta in Italy, a place which nearly three decades later, the trailblazing fashion designer now calls home. In this episode of In Fashion, Buchanan sheds light on all, from church ladies, music and style, to his friendship with Debra Shaw and establishing his innovative knitwear label, Sansovino 6. Listen as he shares personal experiences of the systemic racism people in fashion continue to come up against - one of many reasons Buchanan has too often been written out of the history books.
