Then designer Sander Lak joins to discuss launching his namesake brand, reflect on his path through some of fashion’s most storied houses—Balmain, Phillip Lim, Dries Van Noten—and share what he learned along the way.

Lauren’s guest is architect-designer-decorator Rafael de Cárdenas, the creative mind behind many of the retail stores you’ve shopped, from Skims’s New York flagship to the newly refreshed Piaget on Place Vendôme.

He also revealed what the most power-y publicist, Amanda Silverman, was like in high school. And he convinced me to buy a pair of Free Lance boots on Vestiaire. Jen Brill is also praised. The state of luxury is pondered.
