Decisive Podcast Series Episode 106: Lorand Lajos and Franz SchmidtThis is the audio version of a video conversation originally recorded for YouTube.In this episode, I’m joined by fashion designer and creative director Lorand Lajos, along with his business and creative partner Franz Schmidt. We talk through Lorand’s journey from Transylvania to Munich, including his experience working in haute couture, his creative independence, and how they’ve built something lasting together through the artist collective LOVERS Munich.We also reflect on his time at Atelier Lemarié in Paris, where he contributed to Alexander McQueen’s final collection, and his collaborations with iconic figures and brands like Lady Gaga, Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Dita von Teese, Swarovski, and Rolls Royce. More than anything, this conversation focuses on creative process, vision, and building a life and community rooted in authenticity.Watch the full video version on YouTube[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZSwRYfm78I](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZSwRYfm78I)Listen and follow the Decisive Podcast SeriesSpotify[https://open.spotify.com/show/6ErWC4m2HbewiIzAC3KWi3](https://open.spotify.com/show/6ErWC4m2HbewiIzAC3KWi3)Apple Podcasts[https://podcasts.apple.com/sa/podcast/podcast-series/id364388579](https://podcasts.apple.com/sa/podcast/podcast-series/id364388579)SoundCloud[https://soundcloud.com/roberto-q-ingram/sets](https://soundcloud.com/roberto-q-ingram/sets)Podomatic[https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/decisivepodcastseries](https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/decisivepodcastseries)Follow the guests and hostsLorand Lajos – Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/lorandlajos](https://www.instagram.com/lorandlajos)LOVERS Munich – Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/loversmunich](https://www.instagram.com/loversmunich)Franz Schmidt – Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/fraenzee](https://www.instagram.com/fraenzee)Zoe Mazah – Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/zoemazah](https://www.instagram.com/zoemazah)Zoe Mazah – Website: [https://www.zoemazah.com](https://www.zoemazah.com)Roberto Ingram – Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/robertoingram](https://www.instagram.com/robertoingram)Roberto Ingram – Website: [https://www.robertoingram.com](https://www.robertoingram.com)Subscribe to the Decisive Podcast Series on your preferred platform and share the episode with others who value creative insight and independent voices.
