50 States of Style (w/ Biz Sherbert)

This week’s episode is all stars, stripes, and style. Alyssa is joined by Biz Sherbert, the brilliant writer behind American Style on Substack and co-host of the podcast Nymphet Alumni, to go deep on how young people in our country are getting dressed and thinking about fashion. Tune in to hear Biz’s insights about how what people are wearing in real life is influenced by what people are wearing online, and it’s not a binary; how Clean Girl is probably the most influential trend across the globe; the evolution of the Y2K mall goth; why style-obsessed girls and boys are all up on Pinterest; the beautiful offline ecosystem of sharing clothing and the social connection it can bring; why cool young women in America are flocking to Disney World and Dollywood in droves; 2hollis and Playboi Carti fans are the real dressers at shows; why everyone is looking to homegrown American aesthetics right now; cowboy boots as a symbol of girlhood; Addison Rae and Bella Hadid as the best American style exports we have (and what people might wear to Addison’s first tour); what reality star and influencer style say about American culture; influencers on college campuses and what’s going on fashion-wise at sorority houses; manifesting American Style reporting trips to Charleston and Calabasas, and much more.
