Welcome to #RadarTalks! The new fashion podcast series on Launchmetrics in which we’ll be featuring my Fashion Your Seatbelt interviews with fashion industry insiders. My name is Jessica Michault, and as the SVP of Industry Relations of GPS Radar, I’m dedicated to nurturing the private, members-only community for fashion, luxury and cosmetics professionals. Through this platform, I strive to ensure smooth running of the various features through which members can access fashion week event calendars, manage show invites, create mood boards with favorite runway looks, share press notes and make new connections with other industry pros around the world.
And, to further foster the GPS Radar community, we publish frequent interviews on the blog section with well-known, respected industry figures, providing members with insights and expert opinions from all imaginable backgrounds and specialities. The latest? My interview with Editor-in-Chief of Vogue Spain, Eugenia de la Torriente.
Eugenia de la Torriente is incredibly articulate and fashion savvy, and is considered to be one of the most respected fashion voices in Spain. Before she got her current gig at Vogue last year, she was Editor-in-Chief of the Spanish edition of Harper’s Bazaar, as well as fashion editor of El Pais, and editor of El Pais Semanal. Eugenia has also worked as a professor, regularly speaking at leading luxury and fashion conferences and has published several books on fashion.
She arrives at Vogue Spain at a pretty important time in the history of the magazine. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the Spain edition of the internationally respected publication. It is also a time when Spanish designers, like Johnny Coca, Palomo Spain and Ana Locking, are generating some serious international buzz.
In this podcast she talks about how Vogue Spain is supporting these budding designers, the challenges they face and what advice she would give any young brand starting out that is looking to make a name for itself in the saturated fashion market. Her answers are insightful and informative and the takeaways she offers up in this podcast can be applied to designers around the globe.
In the world of fashion editor-in-chiefs….Eugenia is one to watch.
