Episode 112: Nordstrom Layoffs, Target Fashion Collaborations, Bad Friendships


Welcome to another addition of Pop Fashion podcast! This week in fashion news - Nordstrom is going through a round of layoffs, the Target designer collaboration with Marimekko was considered “meh” (but is that an accurate representation?), and ads with counterfeit products are making their way to Instagram.

Episode 85: ModCloth Simplifies Plus-Size Shopping,Chanel’s Aviation Fashion Show, Emotional First Aid

Welcome to another episode of Pop Fashion! This week we talk about a dumb-dumb move by Urban Outfitters, which asked employees to volunteer for unpaid warehouse shifts. Marissa Webb is no longer creative director of Banana Republic, and Kay Krill just stepped down as head of Ann, Inc. ModCloth is changing the way you shop for plus-sized clothing (hooray!) and we are loving the Chanel spring 2016 runway. We look at Kickstarter’s reincorporation and what it means for crowdfunding, and ponder the rescheduling of Australian Fashion Week. Our main topic: What’s in your emotional first-aid kit? Come hang out!
