Fashion Chat: Autumn/Winter 2023 Collections

Fashion Grunge Podcast ·

2023/03/14

Well, it's been a while but we're back to talk fashion. So much has changed since the last time (in 2020) we talked fashion shows here on the pod. In this 2 hour conversation we first touch on fashion gossip from Pharrell at Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga, the future of the magazine industry, and just how the creative direction of the industry as a whole has radically changed. Me and Jai talk our highlights of various Autumn/Winter 23 collections. Including Rick Owens, Dries Van Noten, Prada, GCDS,

And although the entire thing is politics and honestly means little in the scheme of things, it's still fun to watch and keep up with. Now, Charles is a literal 'Oscars' expert and we always talk about which performances we think should have a nod so we did an episode on it. We cover the 62d Awards (1989) thru the 73rd Awards (2000) and give our own thoughts (along with dramatic category readings) on the main

How did I go my entire life up until this point and not see Casino? Well, you''re in luck because that is the case for both me and Mikey on this episode. We get into our first time thoughts, literally have a fashion panic about the costume design, and find some of the best quotes that we'd like to incorporate in every day life.

There are only a handful of films that I can quote by heart and don't even need to watch to be able to talk about. The First Wives Club, the 1996 sleeper but box office hit is that film for me and my friends Mikey and Charles. We love this story so much that it has been burned into our brains for most of our adult lives. Throughout the episode we question why a film about divorced women really spoke to us at age 13, which woman we identify with, and just basically quote the entire film.Go rent , go

What started out as a joke and just an idea for a "Razzie" series has now become a full fledged episode on the pod. It has been widely accepted that Batman & Robin from '97 effectively killed the franchise for a number of years. I happen to love Batman Forever and enjoy the campy and comic aspect of the Joel Schumacher versions of the caped crusader. Batman/Bruce Wayne is my all time favorite superhero so instead of only trashing this version (yes, it really was that bad), me and Mikey decided to

Bullitt is one of my cornerstones as a youth because I love cars and this is the most important car chase ever filmed. There are so many behind the scenes technical details on how this story came together, Steve McQueen's quest for authenticity, and driving that brings a tear to my eyes.

This is an interview I've been chasing for a while so I could activate my reality tv brain with another superfan. We get into the good ol days of MTV shows and of course the VMAs, Real Housewives and the "old" Bravo, and what we miss about retro reality tv.

Omg I'm so excited the day is finally here that we're reviewing Face/Off. I have a thing for these 90s action films and the crazier the better. What could be more nuts than a facial transplant surgery with little to no recovery time and a hell of a prison escape cat and mouse game? On this episode me and Charles have Manny along to talk one of the greatest Cage roles ever, Castor Troy.

It's the New Year and we're back with more 90s films. This is the interesting part of the the show now because there are still so many essential films from the decade I haven't seen. The Crying Game is one of those films that has been on my list. Charles selected this one and I'm so glad I've finally experienced it. We get into the Oscars drama that year, all of Dil's fashion, and just how much the transgender community's portrayal in film and television has changed since the 90s. off topics rants:

It's time for another staple in the cinematic year of 1999. A year that will go down in history as releasing some of the most culturally relevant films of the modern age. For this episode we're talking American Beauty by Sam Mendes and written by Alan Ball. This is one of me and Charles' essential 90s films and it was good to really examine all the aspects we enjoyed as teenagers and cringe at what didn't age well at ALL. We chat about the perfect casting of Wes Bentley, the color red, and the
