EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS

7:40 I grew up in Iowa, I came from farming families and I always liked clothes. I was the black sheep of the family as I liked to spend all my summer money on clothes as I believed they would get girls' attention.

20:35 Twenty years ago there were a handful of names recognized as labels. Today it's changed, there are many more options, especially with startup brands that are growing quickly. It's very healthy for the business as it keeps the industry fresh with new ideas.

32:00 I am very hopeful for the future of the fashion industry. It's always renewing itself; whenever you think "Ah, I've seen it" there is something new that comes along. And these new ideas influence everybody, including me.
