Because pregnancy style really does exist

Because pregnancy style really does exist

Author: The Telegraph May 30, 2018 Duration: 30:36
Until recently, ‘pregnancy fashion’ was something of an oxymoron. It’s one of the small indignities of fashion that pregnancy — a time when many women feel their most womanly -- can also be the point at which women are least served by brands. But a growing group of pregnancy-compatible labels is seeking to change that. Listen in as we introduce the brands rewriting the rules of maternity style.Also in today’s episode, Emily Cronin, Charlie Gowans-Eglinton and Sonia Haria talk about a very royal wedding gown scandal and receive a dispatch from the front lines of the cruise shows, direct from Lisa Armstrong in Cannes. Plus, cut-price beauty secrets and what we’re excited about this week.

Fashion Unzipped, brought to you by The Telegraph, is a conversation about the clothes we wear and the stories they tell. This isn't a lecture on hemlines or a dry analysis of trends; it's a lively exploration of an industry that shapes culture, identity, and our everyday lives. Each episode delves into the forces shaping what ends up in our closets, from the glittering pressure of the runway to the practical realities of the high street. You'll hear thoughtful discussions that bridge the gap between artistic expression and commercial reality, examining fashion as both a creative pursuit and a global business. The tone is inquisitive and accessible, designed for anyone curious about the meaning behind the material. In this podcast, you can expect to find interviews with a diverse range of voices-designers, journalists, historians, and innovators-who provide unique perspectives on beauty, craftsmanship, and consumerism. The dialogue moves seamlessly from the history of a specific garment to the future of sustainable design, always with a focus on the human element behind the seams. It’s a space where haute couture is discussed with the same engaging curiosity as a beloved vintage find. By listening, you join a nuanced discussion that respects fashion's impact while never taking itself too seriously. Fashion Unzipped unpacks the layers of this dynamic world, offering listeners a deeper understanding that goes far beyond the surface.
