Author: Bella Freud October 2, 2024 Duration: 59:05
In this first episode of Fashion Neurosis with Bella Freud, join the legendary fashion master of avant-garde gothic elegance Rick Owens as he lies on the couch while Bella asks him leading questions from her analyst's chair. Rick Owens is known for his preoccupation with distortion and exaggeration of the human form through clothes. Together he and Bella talk about how this plays out with his own physical transformation; what are his current obsessions; and how nothing could be cooler than not having to hold a glass in his hand when he (rarely) walks into a social situation.  Honest and insightful, this is a conversation with one of fashion's most enigmatic figures that you won't want to miss.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In Fashion Neurosis with Bella Freud, the iconic designer turns her studio into something closer to a therapist's office. Every episode, a guest settles in for a conversation that starts with the fabric of our lives-literally. Bella Freud guides discussions that pick apart why we wear what we do, treating a wardrobe choice not as a trivial concern but as a window into our deeper selves. These aren't typical interviews about trends; they're meandering, personal explorations. You’ll hear stories about the power of a specific scent, the armor of a well-cut jacket, or the nostalgia tied to a childhood uniform. Naturally, the dialogue in this podcast often spirals into much broader territory, touching on the anxieties, cultural shifts, and personal histories that shape us. Freud shares her own vivid anecdotes generously, creating a space where fashion becomes the starting point for talking about everything from love and politics to the very construction of identity. The result is a series of intimate, sometimes surprising dialogues that reveal how the things we put on our bodies are inextricably linked to what’s happening in our minds and in the world around us.
