In this episode, I sit down with Ayo —a fashion journalist and content creator—who shares his unconventional journey into the fashion world. Ayo opens up about how his early influences led him to make the bold leap from studying chemical engineering to pursuing a career in fashion. He delves into the challenges he faced working in various roles within the industry, the lack of representation in fashion journalism, and the motivations behind launching his own platform to amplify diverse voices.
Throughout the conversation, Ayo and I explore themes of cultural identity, language’s influence on storytelling, and the evolution of content creation on platforms like YouTube and Instagram. We discuss the nuances of monetizing digital content, the impact of formal fashion education, and share candid critiques on the recent return of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
The episode builds towards an engaging discussion on the upcoming Met Gala theme focused on Black Dandism, where Ayo offers his insights into its cultural significance and the potential controversies surrounding it. We also examine the current state of luxury fashion, the rise of emerging designers, and the industry's biggest challenges today.
Tune in for an episode filled with thought-provoking conversations, insider insights, and practical advice for navigating the ever-evolving world of fashion!
