Shut Up Evan

Urgent episode drop! ERK chats with fashion designer and GAP’s newest creative director, ZAC POSEN as he reflects on his two-decades-long career. He shares how he trail-blazed celebrities and theatricalities into the flat fashion scene of the early 2000s, survived media pressure by the great CATHY HORYN, costume designed for RYAN MURPHY’s latest miniseries Feud: Capote vs. the Swans, found inspiration in his love of Broadway, and more. Listen now as Posen steals our hearts and the conversation (actually, though)—the only guest who can pull that off so charmingly. Enjoy!
