Fashion can help you stand out and express yourself. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to showcasing your look and style—it’s all about what makes you feel great and confident in your own skin. When it comes to style, you might love seeking inspiration from celebrities, trendsetters, and icons. If you want to make a fashion statement on a tight budget, you might value advice on how to bargain hunt for the right threads, invest in staple pieces, and create great looks affordably.

Hello! It’s the SSENSE public sale, and I’m starting to feel like I personally know all the judgmentally-eyed androgynes who model the clothes for our benefit. Before I intro today’s post, I want to let you know that I’m beyoooooond excited to have co-written a little piece about what’s happened to Black Friday in the past 10 years with the truly glorious that will be up on her Substack soon.

You and I both know this. The supply chain is super messed up. The way humans make clothing is deeply messed up. And it’s almost impossible to find a really good sweater. So should we just make garments made of human hair? A company in the Netherlands certainly thinks soAnd they’re not the first to think about this. Once you start digging, the idea of wearing human hair is everywhere.

This is a revisit of one of my favorite episodes of Articles Of Interest: Pockets. This episode first came out in 2018, and it featured RISD professor Hannah Carlson. And now, finally, author Carlson’s book about Pockets has come out. So it’s time to see what has happened in the world of pocket development since Carlson and I last talked. Articles Of Interest is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

This episode is made in collaboration with the fabulous new show Weight For It. It is seriously such a good podcast. Shout out to the charismatic Ronald Young Jr. for sliding into my DMs and making this happen: Seriously though. I’ve been wanting to do an episode about plus-sized clothing forever. It’s a fascinating world. Plus-sized fashion seems to live in a separate trend cycle. There are different patterns, different cuts. And most notably, women’s shirts often have holes in their shoulders.

Hello!I made this episode in collaboration with my friend Leah Rodriguez, who, in-depth reporter that she is, proceeded to ask everyone in her life about corduroy and what it means to them. She talked to people who loved it, people who hated it. Some said it was for babies. Some said it was for old people. Some said it was snobby. Some said it was for yokels. It seems to mean so many different things- and many of them opposites.

Dear Subscribers,Back Row is on vacation through Labor Day. I’ll be back in your inboxes next week with fashion month coverage and more. In the meantime, I compiled a reading list for the often exceedingly slow Labor Day news cycle. This selection includes some of Back Row’s most popular stories, plus some personal favorites that I’ve been wanting to recirculate. I can’t thank all of you enough for your support over the last couple of years.

To save space for images, I’m not going to add a lot of words here. Just know that almost everything you’re about to see took place behind the iron curtain. In the 1980s, Budapest was not quite socialist and not quite capitalist, and there was one fashion designer who thrived in this moment. This is the story of Tamás Király, an unusual artist from an unusual period of Hungarian history, both of which were unusually short-lived. Because Király was murdered in 2013.

Sorry this one is a little later in the day. We literally had to wait for approval from the warden to publish this. Because look who I got to make a story with:It’s Ear Hustle! Which, if you don’t already know, is a Pulitzer-nominated show (/phenomenon) about life inside and outside prison. It’s one of my all-time favorite podcasts.
