#212: Met Gala, Female “juniors”, Balldo

It’s fashun Christmas! And we’re real time reacting to the red carpet at the Met Gala as the “gilded age” is revealed. Who nailed it? Who phoned it in? And who wore puffa?? A timely biography on Anna Wintour has us reflecting on her power too, and recommending one helluva fashion doco. Women are increasingly naming their kids after themselves, a la “junior” boys, and a great piece on the patriarchal conventions of names has us thinking. And Myf has been googling some weird stuff. What’s a balldo? Listen and you’ll find out.
