Should Designers Demand More in Exchange for the Clout they Bring?

Can you be top of the game and top of the ethical food chain?

So, you want to be a good leader? Join us this week as we host my old boss, and hospitality industry legend MARTIN KUCZMARSKI of Soho House, The Dover, Dover St Counter, and Martino's fame in the Polestar for a chat on being best in the biz, and the things he wishes people would take inspiration from in his brands beyond the aesthetics and the vibes. For more on MK, his hospitality ventures, and driving reviews follow him on instagram @martinkuczmarski. Shout out to our very ethical sponsor @Polestarcars for being part of the ride towards a better future for people and planet. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Should Designers Demand More in Exchange for the Clout they Bring?

This week we catch up with @DearTyler designer and Project Runway star TYLER NEASLONEY on fashion, fabrics and fascism. We chat about ethical expectations in high design, if you should work with people/systems you don't agree with, and of course the viral "Not even to dinner with the Kushners" moment which has been living rent free in my head for years. The convo left me wondering - in a world where designer collabs enhance clout and credibility to brands both personal and commercial, should these artists be demanding more from their patrons than just money? Systemic change alongside financial exchange... Shout out to @twinbrett and @theseagull for the thought provoking content mentioned in the EQ News at the Top. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

You're Thinking about Your Wardrobe All Wrong

This week we catch up with the founder By Rotation the world's largest clothing rental app ESHITA KABRA-DAVIES on looking at your wardrobe as an asset, and making the circular and sharing economies work for your wallet as well as your morals. Our simple swap this week - search with www.Ecosia.org get the app on your homescreen or whatever and help that ad revenue flow towards some environmental good, vs some technological questionable... Huge thank you to Polestar our gorgeous sponsor - the Swedish electric performance brand created to accelerate the shift to zero tailpipe emissions. Their approach to transparency means every car they sell has a carbon impact report so you can drive with a conscience. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
