On today's show, we're chatting with the folks at Pinterest about their Festival Fashion Trend Report, made for Coachella. Sydney Stanback, Global Trends & Insights Lead, Pinterest gives us the scoop about how fashion trend reporting happens at Pinterest – think about it, Pinterest is obviously a major driver in what we wear, setting the trends before they even get to social media, and what they reported for festival fashion this season.

We also had secondhand stylist KG Lillian, hop on the line with us, she's known for her thrifted style boxes, and Pinterest asked her to curate thrifted and vintage style boxes based on our festival trend data.

We talk moodboarding, how vintage dealers and collectors might want to use Pinterest, and all the nostalgia we're seeing in fashion – especially at Coachella this season!

It's a fun one, and I think you're really gonna love it –  so let's dive right in!

Every week, Emily Stochl invites you into a conversation that goes far beyond the clothing rack. Pre-Loved Podcast with Emily Stochl is built on the idea that every second-hand garment has a past, and that exploring those histories makes our present style more meaningful. Rather than just offering shopping tips, each episode feels like sitting down with a fascinating friend who shares your passion for vintage, digging into the many layers of what it means to wear pre-owned fashion. You’ll hear from a diverse range of guests-from collectors and stylists to entrepreneurs and historians-as they explore not only personal style but also the practicalities of running a resale business, the complexities of the global second-hand market, and the environmental ethos behind choosing used over new. The heart of this podcast lives in those incredible stories: the serendipitous flea market find, the garment that carries a decade of memories, or the simple, powerful act of giving a piece a new life. Emily guides these discussions with genuine curiosity, making each topic accessible whether you're a seasoned thrifter or just curious about sustainable fashion. It’s a thoughtful, engaging look at how what we wear connects to culture, art, beauty, and the kind of mindful consumption that can reshape an industry. Tune in for a fresh perspective that celebrates the character, sustainability, and deep personal connection found in pre-loved fashion.
