• ep. 58 - fashion week politics with lucien pagès

  someone in my comment section said he’s “the man who turns water into perfume.” add to that: the liaison between vision and visibility. In this episode of the fashion archives podcast Lucien Pagès breaks down how perception becomes product, how to turn noise into meaning — and how to get invited to a fashion show (the most asked question in my dms I swear!!!!!)topics we got into:– pivoting from design to PR and reframing ambition– some brands are rich in sales but poor in story (and viceversa): how does PR balance that?– sacai and the reality of avantgarde fashion– designers as content creators– people sneaking into fashion shows– PR blacklisting — spoiler: it’s real– the industry’s obsession with romanticizing young male couturiers– and the question no one wants to ask: do we really need more fashion brands?the production quality of this episode is T-R-A-S-H (we had so many hiccups!). the conversation isn’t :)))full episode out now literally everywhere youtube substack spotify apple podcasts!!!find lucien here:https://www.instagram.com/lucienpages/find me here:https://www.instagram.com/chez.amelie/https://thefashionarchives.substack.com/https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-fashion-archives/id1764314268SAVE PRINT BY BUYING COOL FASHION BOOKS https://bit.ly/3G1ExEY

• ep. 54 - the hedi slimane boy + the ann demeulemeester girl in 2025

  If the Margiela boy = Isabel Marant girl then… is the Hedi Slimane boy = Ann Demeulemeester girl?Nostalgia is a cycle we can’t seem to exit—and deep down, I find comfort in that. After all, I’m a Cancer.In this episode of The Fashion Archives podcast I trace the return of two iconic fashion archetypes: the Hedi Slimane boy and the Ann Demeulemeester girl. From Dior Homme to Antwerp minimalism, blurry gig photos to Tumblr dashboards, we explore how the aesthetics of the 2000s and 2010s are being reimagined in 2025 through indie sleaze, post-punk, and quiet rebellion.We talk Stefano Gallici’s vision for Ann Demeulemeester, the rise of 2hollis and Snow Strippers, the electro-emo music comeback, and the enduring appeal of skinny jeans, leather jackets, poet blouses, and lace-up boots.It’s about fashion formulas that never leave. Subcultures that keep haunting us. And how fashion, once again, is a tool for emotional expression in a world that’s oversaturated with trends. If you’re into archive fashion, Hedi Slimane's Celine era, early YSL Homme, the Libertines, Crystal Castles, or even just vibing with the whole “hot people looking bad on purpose” aesthetic—this one’s for you. And if you feel like fashion has nothing new to say… you might be right. hold that thought for the next episodeinsta https://www.instagram.com/chez.amelieyoutube https://www.youtube.com/@chez.amelienewsletter https://thefashionarchives.substack.com/
