Inside the “Dive-esque” Conclave with Pope Crave’s Chief Correspondent

6 days ago | i-d.co | Steff Yotka

Everyone loves when life imitates art. Or when a parody imitates—nay, shapes—reality. Such was the case when Pope Crave (@ClubConclave), a Pop Crave-meets-Club Chalamet, X account became the world’s de facto primary source for information around the conclave to elect Pope Leo XIV. The account’s founder Susan Bin began @ClubConclave around the Conclave movie’s release, naturally evolving to follow the actual Conclave only two months after Conclave was snubbed at the Academy Awards.

Since founding his eponymous brand in 2019, the Florentine designer (now based in Paris) has created sinuous statement pieces beloved by Rihanna, Tilda Swinton, and other international glitterati of depth.

Every day at around 1 p.m., the harbourside office grinds to a peaceful halt, with staff pulling out home-cooked meals in jewel-toned bowls. On the tippity top floor, at a well-worn, long wooden table, the senior staff come to sit at their white place mats. Nico, the chef, has been making them lunch for years.
