My guest today is the writer, curator and broadcaster, Lou Stoppard.
Not long after completing a degree at Oxford University and an MA at Central Saint Martin’s, Lou was made editor at Nick Knight’s pioneering fashion platform SHOWStudio, where became known for her in-depth live interviews with the likes of Kanye West and Wolfgang Tillmans. Since then, Lou has written for The New Yorker, Aperture, and The New York Times, edited books on iconic fashion partnerships and the allure of swimming pools for Rizzoli, and curated exhibitions at London’s Somerset House and the Het Nieuwe institute in Rotterdam.
I really enjoy Lou’s curious, wide-ranging approach to her work, and it was a pleasure to learn more about the ideas and inspirations that have shaped her career.
