Feminist Fashion, Warehouse Robots, The Cost of Hoodies Welcome to a bizarro-world episode of Pop Fashion podcast. This week Lisa and Kaarin report separately to give you one jam-packed episode. Lisa starts by reading from Paris Hilton’s fantastic book Your Heiress Diary (#yourewelcome) In real news, the Pulitzer Center put out a report regarding Indonesia’s textile boom and how it is impacting the environment. A video from BuzzFeed makes us question the cost of a hoodie. There is a rise in feminist apparel, but is it helping or hurting the causes behind the clothes? In other news, Walmart purchased ModCloth, a museum on Long Island has an exhibit all about Roy Halston Frowick (aka Halston), and Mexico’s sugar industry might be a harbinger for future retail exports. Finally, companies are scrambling to fulfill online orders at warehouses and the future involves robots. Come hang out with us!

Meryl Streep's Oscars Dress, LuLaRoe Leggings Fashion, BCBG Drama Welcome to another episode of Pop Fashion! This week, Kaarin tries to explain the battle among Meryl Streep and Karl Lagerfeld. Buckle in for this one, kids. LuLaRoe customers are having trouble with the quality of the company's leggings, and BCBG is prepping for bankruptcy. In the lightning round, JCPenney is closing stores, Moonlight actors are in Calvin Klein ads, and Alibaba's counterfeit conviction rate is freaky low. A Target bomb plot got foiled by the feds, major brands pulled out of a summit in Bangladesh, and a closed American Apparel store lives again...sort of. Nothing happened this week, really.

Rodarte + Proenza Schouler Ditch New York Fashion Week, RIP Wet Seal Welcome to another episode of Pop Fashion! First, we update the tally of designers leaving New York Fashion Week this year.

In the speed round, the editor of British Vogue stepped down, a classic fashion book and movie is coming to Broadway, and Lady Gaga’s heading to the Super Bowl (in a Tiffany ad). Meanwhile, Abercrombie is cutting 150 jobs, and women in Britain have something new to shout about (hint: fewer dumb dress code rules). Come hang out! Pop Fashion Links Lisa’s Links Kaarin’s Links
