Stacy London: A Midlife Renaissance After What Not to Wear


Listen Later

Elisa and Lily sit down with inspirational stylist, fashion consultant, author, magazine editor, and former co-host of What Not To Wear, Stacy London.

Style by fire, Stacy’s trademark “Morticia” gray streak grew in when she was eleven and she has been refusing to hide it ever since. But it isn’t until turning 50 that she is actually having a midlife Renaissance in her Princess dresses and finally feeling a deep comfort in her skin. She is coming into her own having done life her way; not married, without kids and never having had a conventional job. This after a lifetime of eating disorders under fashions unforgiving lens as a Fashion Editor at magazines like Vogue and as a superstar TV host of “What Not To Wear.” “Beauty is about love and contentment,” is Stacy’s new mantra.

This week’s topics include:

  • reconnecting to personal style after What Not To Wear
  • combatting the invisibility of women over 40
  • lost in your 20’s
  • finding yourself at 50
  • feeling like you have to say yes when you should say no
  • grieving a parent
  • eating disorders and body dysmorphia
  • menopause and self-acceptance through aging
  • the humiliating pain of psoriasis
  • Vogue and the fashion industry
  • the brutally rigorous life of being a reality TV star
