Show Notes
<p dir="ltr">Pulitzer Prize–winning fashion critic Robin Givhan joins Sam to talk style, luxury, and legacy. Sam also asks the eternal question: which jeans should he wear—skinny, baggy, barrel, or wide leg?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Robin offers sharp fashion advice and dives into her new book, <em>Make It Ours: Crashing the Gates of Culture with Virgil Abloh</em>. They unpack the rebellious influence of Virgil Abloh—the late visionary behind Off-White and the first Black designer to lead Louis Vuitton—and how he blurred the line between streetwear and high fashion.</p>
<p dir="ltr">She also breaks down the biggest challenges in fashion today, from TikTok microtrends to whether “high fashion” still matters.</p>
