  • Luxury, Democratized
    Apr 25 2025
    Reed Krakoff's approach to design is anything but ordinary. And yet, he's one of the chief architects of the accessible luxury movement. Before his nearly 20-year run at Coach, where he fully changed the game, he worked at Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger. And more recently, he did a much-talked-about stint at Tiffany. Now, he's advising the LVMH-linked investment firm L Catterton on multiple brands, including the 50-year-old jeweler John Hardy. He and Lauren discuss all that and more—from growing up to in Connecticut to getting fired in New York City, and what it felt like to experience truly next-level success. Reed also has advice for today's brand builders.

  • Just Don’t?
    Apr 22 2025
    Simeon Siegel, the sharp-eyed retail analyst at BMO Capital Markets, joins Lauren to discuss one of the last remnants of our disintegrating monoculture: Nike. With Nike in the throes of a still-active business crisis, Simeon breaks down everything from the Jordan-esque potential of NikeSkims to the importance of selling $50 sneakers at DSW. Simeon also forecasts whether Nike can maintain its magic for another 20 years—and if so, how will Nike maintain its mystique in a fragmented cultural landscape?

  • A Sofia Coppola Appreciation Pod
    Apr 18 2025
    The Ringer’s Amanda Dobbins joins Lauren on the pod to discuss one of their shared interests: Sofia Coppola. Together, the duo interrogate Coppola’s relationship with fashion, on- and off-screen: her incredible influence on modern aesthetics, her impact on the industry, and why she’s personally important to them. (As true professionals, they also tried their best not to be too sycophantic. They may or may not have failed.)

Marc Metrick run through the list of complaints against the luxury department store super group, which includes Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus, and Bergdorf Goodman—from issues paying vendors to customer return snafus.
