After first resisting her role in a storied Italian luxury family brand, Miuccia Prada spent the '90s transforming the company into a major fashion house. She accomplished that metamorphosis by infusing her designs with her own interests and internal contradictions, challenging traditional ideas of beauty and luxury. By embracing her own identity as a modern woman, Prada brought the world into her designs-–and captured imaginations around the globe.Joining Vogue’s editorial team on this episode are, in order of appearance: Photographer Glen Luchford, designers Miuccia Prada and Lawrence Steele, fashion critic and journalist Suzy Menkes, and stylist Lucinda Chambers.For more on this week’s episode and to access additional Vogue content, make sure to visit vogue.com/podcast.Don’t miss out on new episodes of In Vogue: The 1990s on:Apple Podcasts: listen.vogue.com/iv-apple-podcastsSpotify: listen.vogue.com/iv-spotifyGoogle: listen.vogue.com/iv-google-podcastsor wherever you listen to podcasts.Shop the Vogue Collection: https://shop.vogue.com/ Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Karl Lagerfeld reinvented the role of designer as a creative director, rather than just an in-house couturier. That model, which is standard today, came to wider prominence in the 90’s — a shift which will be perhaps his most lasting legacy. Lagerfeld channeled the zeitgeist and made fundamental changes to the production and marketing of every house he worked at, but most famously, Karl reinvigorated the legendary house of Chanel. His success at Chanel became the blueprint for creative directors of legacy fashion houses. Episode 4: Karl Lagerfled & The Role of Creative Director features guest interviews with Amanda Harlech, Anna Wintour, Kim Jenkins, Eric Wright, Tom Ford, and Claudia Schiffer. From Vogue’s Editorial team: Laird Borelli-Persson and Mark Holgate. For more on this week’s episode and to access additional Vogue content, make sure to visit vogue.com/podcast.Don’t miss out on new episodes of In Vogue: The 1990s on:Apple Podcasts: listen.vogue.com/iv-apple-podcastsSpotify: listen.vogue.com/iv-spotifyGoogle: listen.vogue.com/iv-google-podcastsor wherever you listen to podcasts.Shop the Vogue Collection: https://shop.vogue.com/ Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
