Author: The Telegraph May 8, 2018 Duration: 29:25
Sport has the Super Bowl, Hollywood the Oscars, and fashion, the Met Gala. The first Monday in May sees some of the most avant-garde - and often bizarre - fashion out there, and last night’s ball was no exception - cue Katy Perry nearly taking out another guest with her six foot angel wings. In this episode, Charlie Gowans-Eglinton, Emily Cronin, Bethan Holt and Dominique Temple are sharing the trends, talking points, and tiaras - the Papal kind - from the red carpet. The Catholic dress code might have been controversial, but does fashion still have the ability to shock in 2018? Plus, find out what we're excited about this week. Read more on these stories at http://www.telegraph.co.uk/fashion-unzipped-podcast and email us at unzipped@telegraph.co.uk.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

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.
