20 episodes’90s Vogue Alumni Reveal Their Real Reaction to 'The Devil Wears Prada'
The countdown to the 2026 Met Gala has begun and the momentous occasion means that Voguers from far and wide are flying into New York City, including none other than our very own Chioma Nnadi. Reunited at last, Chioma, Chloe, and Nicole gathered in the studio—on the same day as another royal’s visit to the World Trade Center—and caught up.Earlier this week, Vogue hosted its second Book Club gathering at Metrograph; a celebration of reading Lauren Weisberger’s The Devil Wears Prada accompanied by a screening of the sequel which comes to theaters on May 1. After the film wrapped, Chloe invited Vogue alumni Kate Young and Billy Norwich to join her on stage for a live podcast taping. Kate, who started as Anna’s assistant in the late nineties and Billy, who was then a writer and editor at Vogue, shared memories and spoke about their initial reactions to the book and movie when they first came out. Billy actually accompanied Anna to the 2006 premiere at the Paris Theater and told Chloe that she wanted to wear Prada because “that was her intense humor.” He also spoke about the test he created with the late Charles Gandee which went viral last year when the New York Times published a multiple choice interactive version titled “Could You Have Landed A Job At Vogue in the ‘90s?”Not all of the reminiscing was so rose-colored. Kate recalled feeling hurt after she read the galley. “At the time she was just making fun of us.” As for Billy, his pet peeve was that “every time I’d get on an airplane that’s what was playing. So I couldn’t escape it.” The podcast trio also discussed the age-old question which surfaced in light of this week’s Chanel show: what is cruise or resort season in the fashion world? Despite many attempts to answer this conundrum, year after year someone always needs a refresher. Nicole’s simplest explanation: “cruise is this in-between season, between fall and spring.” The show itself also had the whole office, and broader fashion community, talking particularly about the pair of not-shoe shoes that several models sported on the runway. This near-naked foot look is certainly not practical, but perhaps it’ll be making its way onto red carpets in the future. Chioma also brought up the big news that Zoe Kravitz and Harry Styles, after a relatively brief courtship, are engaged. The rock is nothing to scoff at! And in other news, ahead of the first Monday in May, Vogue Cafe is popping up in NYC this weekend on Saturday and Sunday at Altro Paradiso. Get your tickets in the Vogue app—we’ll see you there.

Exclusive: Leslie Fremar on Being the Real Emily In 'The Devil Wears Prada'
The truth is finally revealed! After 20+ years, stylist Leslie Fremar has gone on record to say that she is the inspiration behind Emily from The Devil Wears Prada. Back in 1999, she was the one who hired writer Lauren Weisberger to be Anna Wintour's assistant and she even remembers being the one to say "a million girls would kill for this job". On this episode of The Run-Through with Vogue, hear Leslie tell the story of how she became first assistant to Anna Wintour after first saying no, the real story behind the Harry Potter manuscript, and whether or not she's spoken to Lauren Weisberger all these years later.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Costume Designer Molly Rogers Breaks Down The Devil Wears Prada 2's Biggest Fashion Moments
One of the first things costume designer Molly Rogers thought about after she finished reading the script for the Devil Wears Prada 2: Where was Andy’s blue cerulean sweater?“It was the first phone call I made to the archives out at the studio,” says Rogers, who spoke to Alice Newbold, Fashion Features & News Director, British Vogue. “Stuff disappears. You finish a movie, all of the clothes go to the lot where other productions can rent them.” says Rogers. But she was able to secure the original sweater, “and it still had the corn chowder stain on it.”Rogers says it was Anne Hathaway who grabbed the scissors and made the alterations to turn the beloved sweater into a vest. Rogers shares all the secrets behind the film's biggest fashion moments, including those rock stud pumps. Plus, Chloe and Nicole talk Met Gala prep, the new Victoria Beckham and Gap collaboration, and Cecilie Bahnsen's Uniqlo collab.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Adrien Brody and Tessa Thompson Make Their Broadway Debuts in The Fear of 13
The podcast continues its spring season theater coverage this week! The hotly anticipated play from writer Lindsey Ferrentino, The Fear of 13, opened last week on Broadway at the James Earl Jones Theatre. Adapted from a documentary of the same name, the play is a semi-fictionalized depiction of the real-life events of Nick Yarris, a man who was wrongfully accused and convicted of rape and murder, and spent 22 years imprisoned, before finally being exonerated by DNA evidence. Two seasoned actors, Adrien Brody and Tessa Thompson, bring this story to life, with Brody in the role of Yarris and Thompson playing a prison volunteer with whom he falls in love. For both actors, this was their Broadway debut, and they sat down with Senior Editor of Features and News, Marley Marius, to talk about it. They talk about the theater rituals and also the nerves that go into performing this work. “I've had a lot of trepidation if I’m going to be honest,” Brody said of telling Yarris’ story, “just because of the enormity of the task.” They spoke about how this story is not only the story of Yarris, but an unfortunately relatable tale for so many folks in America who have family and loved ones in the carceral system. The pair reflected on the immense obligation of telling a real and alive person’s story. Yarris, now a free man, has been highly instrumental in the rehearsal process, attending table reads and performances alike. He also joined the pair on the red carpet for opening night. When it comes to this kind of work “whether they’re in the room or not, they are in the room,” Thompson explained, “So then when they're literally in the room, it's a completely different thing.” Crucial to Yarris’ experience in prison was his love of reading, a love so strong he referred to it as an addiction to books. Thompson, in an homage to her character Jacki who is a PhD candidate in poetry, has created a little library of books in her dressing room. There, she keeps several volumes of Charles Simic poetry and has also been known to read Mary Oliver and Nabokov’s Lolita (a problematic fav of hers). When they aren’t in rehearsal or performances, Brody and Thompson have pretty distinct approaches to how they spend their time. Brody, a homebody and true multi-hyphenate, busies himself making music—or “beats” as Thompson fondly refers to them—and cooking sweet potato stews. Thompson, on the other hand, is looking forward to having a bit more free time now to see other shows on this season and find the little speakeasies tucked in and around the theater district.

Luke Evans and Sam Pinkleton on Reviving The Rocky Horror Show
It’s less than a week to go until opening night for the cast of the Rocky Horror Show on Broadway and Luke Evans who plays Dr. Frank-N-Furter is ready to march out on stage in his fishnets and 7 inch platform heels. “I think I enjoy the process of tech…because you still have the license and the freedom to try things and change things up,” says Evans, “but if we open tomorrow, I feel very, very good about what we have.”“I feel giddy,” echos director Sam Pinkleton. “Always with live theater, you could tinker until death…And at a certain point you have to be like, "Pencils down." And I think with this show especially, I mean, we've had such a good time making it.” The duo joined guest host Marley Marius, Vogue’s Senior Editor, Features & News on The Run Through podcast to talk about their collaboration in Rocky Horror Show on Broadway. Recently, the cast photographed for Vogue by Norman Jean Roy and styled by Tonne Goodman. The photo shoot took place on the first day that the ensemble met each other. “I'm not just saying this because I'm on the Vogue podcast. Tonne and Norman got it on a molecular level,” explains Pinkleton. “And I was like, oh, it's like the DNA of the thing… That shoot set a path for making the show in a way that I didn't totally expect.” And while the cast prepares for opening night, Pinkleton has also started working this week with Maya Rudolph as she is set to take over the titular role in the hit play ‘Oh Mary!’"You know, when Cole [Escola] and I were first making “Oh, Mary!”, we were like, 'Well, no one will ever play this part other than Cole.' I mean, no one could really do it other than, I don't know, like Maya Rudolph." So we're really eating our words now,” says Pinkleton who sees parallels between the two shows. “Mary Todd Lincoln is such an amazing character. There's no one like her…Much like Dr. Frank-N-Furter.” says Pinkleton. “She is a character who is largely misunderstood by the world. Who knows that she contains greatness. Who wants to show the world and the audience all of the things she's capable of…Much like Dr. Frank-N-Furter.”The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Jean Smart Talks The Bittersweet End of Hacks | PLUS Charli XCX's First British Vogue Cover
Tonight, the second episode of Hacks Season 5 comes out and with it, we are one step closer to the bittersweet end of a delightful show that has been running since pandemic times. In this episode Deborah Vance and the cast headed to New York City and for The Run-Through episode, the real Deborah—Jean Smart—sat down with Chloe in the studio to talk about what it’s been like to be Deborah for five seasons and what comes next.“I definitely feel more like her. Or, she feels more like me,” Smart said of her character, “I mean, we look a lot alike.” She also alluded to the sarcastic sense of humor which she and Deborah both possess. As for where they differ, Smart noted that she doesn’t grapple with the same anger, bitterness, and distrust that fuels many of Deborah’s choices. “That's sort of been her fuel for many, many years and I think she starts to learn to give that up this season,” Smart observed.Smart will miss a lot of aspects of Hacks, not least of which are Deborah’s vast and fabulous wardrobe and her tastefully designed home. “I’m a little bit of a pack rat,” Jean confessed in regards to saving clothes from over the years, though she doesn’t have nearly the level of organization that exists within Debroah’s wardrobe warehouse, which we glimpsed in Season 4. She was hesitant to speak on whether she took any of the clothes from set but she proudly declared that she took the drapes from Deborah’s home. “And I would do it again. There! I said it!”Of course, besides the clothes, Smart is certainly going to miss working with Hannah Einbinder who she deeply admires. She also credited her with broadening her understanding of Gen-Z. “I'm definitely more woke after meeting Ms. Einbinder.” Smart isAlso on today’s episode Chioma was joined by British Vogue’s Radhika Seth to talk about the BV goings on. Today the Charli XCX cover is out, as is Radhika’s story with the leads of Apple TV’s Margo’s Got Money Troubles, Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer. They also talk about the new season of Euphoria, the news around the upcoming season of White Lotus, and a few Vogue and Teen Vogue staffers give us their dispatches from Coachella weekend.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Anna Wintour’s Former Assistants Reveal What The Devil Wears Prada Got Right (and Wrong)
Finally, the moment we’ve all been waiting for: three of Anna Wintour’s former assistants—Sache Taylor (Vogue’s director of special events), Sammi Tapper (director of operations and content strategy), and Marley Marius (senior editor, features and news), or “Anna’s Angels,” as Chloe calls them—join The Run-Through to discuss what The Devil Wears Prada got right (and wrong).They break down the real day-to-day of the job, from managing the infamous “book” to why there’s so much running around the office—and share whether assistants ever actually get to wear pieces from the Vogue closet. One of the funniest revelations: how hard it can be to decode Anna’s handwriting. While Marley claims that she became fluent, Sammi reveals that even Anna has trouble reading it sometimes.Also in this episode, Chloe tells Chioma all about her big week, which included seeing Cats: The Jellicle Ball on Broadway and going to Saturday Night Live with her mom, Candice Bergen; and Chioma joins in on The Devil Wears Prada fun, sharing what she wore to her interview with Anna and advising anyone aspiring to work at Vogue not to make the mistake of wearing black.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

For the first time, Anna Wintour graces Vogue's cover alongside Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep)! On the cover the two devils are wearing two pradas! On this episode of The Run-Through, Chloe invites Virginia Smith (Vogue's Director of Global Fashion Network) to breakdown how this historic cover came to be and what goes behind making a top secret cover happen.

She also discusses about how she managed to stay independent and find her own audience, which has come to include writers, directors, and artists like Zadie Smith and Miranda July. On her design process, Comey says, “I really think about design as a service to the client and making sure that they're feeling the things they want to feel in the rooms that they want to go into.”As fashion increasingly catches up to the inclusive casting Comey has long practiced, she plans to keep doing things her own way.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Glenn Martens Takes Maison Margiela to Shanghai
The Belgian designer Glenn Martens is surely one of the busiest men in fashion, holding Creative Director roles at both Maison Margiela and Diesel. Martens invited The Run-Through to Margiela’s Paris headquarters during fashion week to talk about his new collection that showed yesterday in Shanghai.Martens presented both his ready-to-wear and Artisanal couture collections together, accompanied by four exhibitions across China, each dedicated to a founding code of the house. The exhibitions will bring the brand's history to Chinese audiences, covering everything from the iconic “bianchetto” white painting tradition to the house's long philosophy of anonymity. “We love clothes and craftsmanship and garments,” Martens said. “We don't want to focus on the person wearing it."Martens unpacks the artistic vision behind his third collection for the house, which draws on porcelain dolls and Margiela's instinct for finding luxury in the overlooked. Martens’ team combed secondhand markets for 19th-century gowns and furniture, which were transformed through extraordinary techniques, including dresses dipped entirely in beeswax.Martens also reveals the secret weapon he used to win over the studio team in his first weeks on the job: his absolutely adorable border terrier, Murphy. "Everybody was smiling, the doors opened, people were screaming, playing around," he said. Murphy has since been gifted his own miniature lab coat.When it comes to sustaining the creative demands of running two major houses simultaneously, Martens credits countryside weekends as his saving grace — including a Christmas gift he bought himself: a bulldozer for planting trees. "I felt like a proper boy," he said.Looking at the big picture, Glenn wants to keep having fun. “At the end of the day… that's the reason why we started fashion: because it brings joy.”The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Emma Chamberlain Shares Her Top Tips for Vintage Shopping
Emma Chamberlain will go to great lengths to find the right piece of vintage for her closet. She is not a stranger to curling up in bed at the end of a long day to try to hunt for the perfect item for her wardrobe when she gets a break from her demanding schedule. “I kinda let the algorithm take me on a journey,’ says Chamberlain on her online shopping habits. “The internet… it is a mess. It is toxic, but I'm gonna use the algorithm to my benefit, if I can.”Although Chamberlain says when she does have a break, she loves to shop in person. "When I'm in New York, Chinatown,” says Chamberlain giving a shoutout to James Veloria. “But also all the little shops up in that little shopping center.” At home in Los Angeles, Chamberlain has one hotspot she keeps going back to, the Rose Bowl Flea Market. Chamberlain will be back on Vogue’s Met Gala carpet this May as Vogue's special correspondent for her sixth consecutive year. “I don't expect anything…Like every year I'm like, ‘This could be the last year’,” says Chamberlain. “I am so grateful that I've ever been able to do it.” Also on this episode, Vogue Runway's Irene Kim and producer Alex Jhamb Burns take listeners inside the second annual Vogue Vintage Market which took place this past Saturday. They spoke to folks in the line—some who had been waiting for hours—about the vintage pieces they were most coveting and the pieces they walked out the door with.

Dan Levy Wants You to Dress Like His TV Show Characters For Halloween
“I was seriously considering taking a beta blocker before this interview,” Dan Levy told guest hosts Hannah Jackson and Margaux Anbouba on the Run-Through Podcast, “the first time I ever took a beta blocker was like an hour and a half before hosting the Emmys.” Luckily for this anxious trio, the stakes of this episode were much lower than on the stage of a prominent awards ceremony. Levy came onto the show a few weeks before the release of his latest show Big Mistakes, co-created by Rachel Sennott, which comes to Netflix April 9th and is about two siblings who accidentally find themselves entrenched in a world of organized crime. This show, like Schitt’s Creek, is a family drama, but this time the stakes are a little higher. “Committing to an idea that you feel excited to tell in a long form format is an intense thing,” Levy told the hosts, “And I have a very irrational fear of being blackmailed into organized crime.” For his sake, one hopes he never ends up in that situation because as he confessed, “I would be instantly murdered.” Reflecting on who might also not do so well in such circumstances, he thought of Sennott, who he first met while working on The Idol. “That’s a compliment,” he clarified. The pair went on to write the pilot together and “the rest is history!”His style was also a big topic of conversation. His earliest sartorial days involved shopping at Club Monaco, apparently a brand coveted by Toronto teens, and folding clothes in the Gap Kids to the songs of Nelly Furtado and New Radicals. It was a bit later on that he first discovered and made purchases at JW Anderson and Rick Owens. Now, around a decade later, he’s good friends with the likes of Jonathan Anderson and Michael Rider. Also on the episode, Chioma Nnadi and Laura Ingham sat down in the British Vogue studios to discuss the latest goings on from across the pond. This past weekend, the pair attended London’s Vogue co-hosted by Alexa Chung and Lila Moss which helped support the UK based charity Give Your Best. They gushed about the latest very beachy cover of Olivia Rodrigo, bare feet and all. The vintage pulls for that shoot complimented Rodrigo’s personal style well and were an instant wish list for the rest of us. They closed out their chat with some big news: their dear friend Christopher Kane is stepping into the role of Creative Director at the House of Mulberry—bravo!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

How WNBA Star A’ja Wilson Found Her Style
WNBA star Aja Wilson's love for fashion started when she was just a toddler. “My parents always laugh at me because at a young age I would love things with my back out. I don't know why I would love a good top with my back out. Like, I'm a toddler and my onesie needs to have its back out.” A’ja recalls as she sits down with Head of Editorial Content Chloe Malle and Vogue's Global Casting Director Ignacio Murillo on The Run-Through Podcast.Wilson’s style has evolved since she was first drafted to the Las Vegas Aces in 2018. She is entering the second year of her Nike signature athlete journey and her latest shoe the A'Two has debuted in Europe. “The process is always pretty hands-on for me. I love to try to make it something for the consumer, but also very comfortable for myself and also durable,” says Wilson. “There's also a tattoo of mine in the tongue of the shoe. It's a sign that says ‘You have to face setbacks in order to move forward.’ So, I feel like that's something everyone can relate to.”Although lately, there has been cause for celebration rather than setbacks in Wilson’s life as her boyfriend Bam Adebayo who plays for the Miami Heat recently scored 83 points against the Washington Wizards and now the second-highest total in NBA history. A record previously held by the late Kobe Bryant. “I was actually just sitting in the car for a little bit. I was running a little late, but that's nothing new.” Wilson says about her whereabouts during the record setting game. “And then when I go in and I'm in the tunnel and I just hear his name, they're like, “Bam scored again.”“And I'm like, I can't go sit down. And I'm just hiding in the tunnel just enough that I can see the jumbotron. But then finally I go sit down and then he misses his first free throw. And I'm just like, “Oh my gosh, it's me.” But at the same time, I know that's how the game goes,’ says Wilson.“I've seen all the work that [Bam’s] been through. Now it's paying off. And I am so happy that he's able to have that moment in his history. It's pretty cool to kind of see him flourish in that space.” Off the court, Wilson says the duo are enthralled by watching Shonda Rhimes’s 2012 hit TV show Scandal for the first time. “It's popping in our household and we love us some Olivia Pope and some Jake Ballad and Fitz,” says Wilson. “Those are our homies. I feel like we're just best friends at this point.”The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

April Cover Star Doja Cat on Taxidermy, Touring, and Therapy
On this Wednesday’s episode of The Run-Through, Doja Cat—Vogue’s April cover star and the host of the second annual Vogue Vintage Market—calls in from her dining room in Los Angeles.Accompanied by her cat Axel, the 30-year-old rapper shares behind-the-scenes moments from her cover shoot with photographer Willy Vanderperre and Vogue’s contributing style director, Carlos Nazario; gets into her interest in taxidermy (she recently acquired “the ass of a bovine”); and describes what her life looks like during breaks from her Tour Ma Vie World Tour: “Downtime for me is, I put on a heating blanket and play Fortnite, or I watch Judy Justice.”But she is also thinking ahead—about various tour logistics; about the one major outfit she wears per performance (she keeps staring at sketches for next week’s look without quite knowing what they’ll become). She’s also on the Met Gala host committee this year, but has yet to decide what she’ll turn up in.Elsewhere in the episode, Doja shares some of the revelations she’s had during her twice-weekly therapy sessions, along with her (surprisingly understated) go-to brands when she’s not onstage.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Vogue’s Best Dressed and Biggest Wins From the 2026 Oscars
The marathon that is Awards Season (at least for those of us with jobs in media) finally came to its close last night. As has become tradition, the Run-Through podcast hosts, along with colleagues Taylor Antrim and Christian Allaire, gathered early on this foggy morning to discuss their takes on the 98th Academy Awards. The conversation started off with everyone’s best dressed picks. For Chioma, this included Wunmi Mosaku who dazzled in her sparkling emerald green Louis Vuitton dress. The list of best dressed also included Renate Reinsve, another star in Louis Vuitton, and Gwenyth Paltrow in Armani Privé who both sported dramatic slits. Slits were just one of the fashion trends making a splash on last night's red carpet, reminding editors of Angelina Jolie’s internet-breaking dress slit at the 2012 ceremony. Feathers were another item in vogue on the carpet and were worn by Teyana Taylor, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Demi Moore, Nicole Kidman, and Best Supporting Actress winner Amy Madigan. A conversation around the many jewels and rare diamonds being worn last night spawned a curiosity about the guards who work the Oscars. Perhaps a 2027 diamond guard get ready with me story is forthcoming?As for two of the biggest categories of the night—best actor and best actress—everyone was in agreement that Michael B Jordan and recent guest of the podcast Jessie Buckley, were chic and deserving winners.

Vogue Editors Share Highlights From Paris Fashion Week
Confidence was one of the key themes from this Paris Fashion Week. Recording from the Vogue Paris office ahead of Chanel and Louis Vuitton, our hosts (and special guest Claire Thomson-Jonville, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue France) were in agreement: many of the new creative directors have stopped auditioning for their roles and started owning them. Nowhere was that clearer than at Givenchy, where Sarah Burton proved she'd hit her stride.Michael Rider's third outing for Celine at the Institut de France was also a highlight: "Expensive-looking, but aspirationally relatable," as Sarah Mower put it. The Michael Rider effect can already be seen in the wild, with Vogue staffers spotted doing their own styling interpretations inspired by the runway.Pieter Mulier’s intimate farewell at Alaïa, with standing room and children in the audience, was a moving moment from the week. Mulier’s decision to seat the full atelier team and commemorate them in a book felt particularly meaningful. As Paris Fashion Week came to a close, all eyes were once again on Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel. British Vogue March cover star (and Run-Through alum!) Bhavitha Mandava was just announced as house ambassador, and her appearance on the runway is highly anticipated.

Jessie Buckley on Awards Speeches, Red Carpet Dressing, and Traitors | PLUS Backstage at Rick Owens and Isabel Marant
In a little over a week the 98th Academy Awards will take place in Los Angeles. Many of the categories are looking like a toss up but it will be a shock if the Best Leading Actress goes to anyone other than Jessie Buckley for her devastating performance in Hamnet. Having just won variations of best leading lady at the Critics Choice Awards, the SAG Actor Awards, the BAFTAs, and the Golden Globes, Buckley is on a roll. Earlier in the week, Buckley sat down with guest hosts Taylor Antrim and Marley Marius ahead of today’s theatrical release of The Bride! In creating this retelling of the Bride of Frankenstein, Buckley spoke about the challenge of finding her character. “It was such a huge undertaking to really create three individual personalities and metabolize them and have them be in conversation with myself.” The film was also incredibly physical and required that she learn tap and gaga dancing for the role. Buckley had worked previously with Maggie Gyllenhaal in The Lost Daughter, who she described as one of the most important women in her life. “Maggie has a real vision and there's so much intention behind what she's trying to say with her stories and why she's choosing to tell a story at all,” Buckley told The Run-Through, “I think what she asks all of her actors and herself is to ask the question that's gonna challenge you.”With her daughter on the road with her for this press tour, Buckley toggles quickly between “changing a nappy” and putting a red carpet dress on. The combination of being thrust into the spotlight and being a new mother has changed her relationship with fashion. Now working with stylist to the stars Danielle Goldberg, she feels empowered to let herself feel seen in her changing body. “Right at the beginning she was like, I just wanna see you. And I felt like I could breathe for the first time.” Also on the episode, The Run-Through gets an exclusive behind-the-scenes pass at the Rick Owens and Isabel Marant shows. Between getting their makeup done and getting their clothes on, Alex Consani and Mona Touggard chat about how they make time to read despite the chaos that happens backstage. Plus, Rick Owens himself reveals the inspiration by his collection.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Vivian Wilson on Walking Gucci and The “Ozempic Apocalypse” | PLUS The Devil Wears Dries
Vivian Wilson became the talk of Milan Fashion Week when she seductively walked the runway of Demna’s debut Gucci show in a floor-length white gown. The 21-year-old model said she was briefed by casting to embody Venus, the Roman goddess of love. Her path to the Gucci runway began with a casting tape filmed in her own driveway. She walked "like a crazy person, like 8 million times" until she had the perfect take. The result? She ended up positioned in the lineup between icons Kate Moss and Mariacarla Boscono. "When I found that out, I was shaking in my boots," she told Chloe Malle, cozy in a Paris hotel room, while recording today’s episode of The Run Through. "We did it, though."Before all the fashion week glamour in Paris and Milan, there was a very different life. Wilson spent time studying Japanese at a university in Tokyo, with plans to earn her TEFL certificate and become an ESL teacher. A Teen Vogue cover changed everything. "It completely transformed my career," she said. Now she's in Paris, doing the model thing — castings every hour, NDAs on NDAs — and entirely at peace with the pivot. "I wanna see how big I can get,” she said. “We're just locking the fuck in."The conversation took a more serious turn when Malle raised the question of whether models look markedly thinner this season than even five years ago. Wilson didn't hesitate. "It's the Ozempic apocalypse, girl. I am so fucking over this." Off the catwalk, she reads gay fantasy fiction and has a passion for Excel spreadsheets. She is trans, a John Oliver devotee, and has genuine ambitions in voice acting. Her three wishes are to appear in Vogue, attend the Met Gala, and walk for Schiaparelli. She left the hotel room with a piece of the chocolate Eiffel Tower, having resolved to break off a piece from the middle so as "not to compromise its structural integrity."Also in the episode, Vogue editors share thoughts from the Balmain, Dries Van Noten and Saint Laurent shows at Paris Fashion Week.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Bhavitha Mandava Is British Vogue’s March Cover Star | PLUS First Thoughts From Dior
When Bhavitha Mandava got word that she’d been cast as the Chanel bride in Matthieu Blazy’s spring 2026 couture show, she approached the role the way she did her research papers at NYU: Mandava headed straight to a Paris library to pore over books on couture and watched every video of prior Chanel brides that she could find.“Then I came up with a story in my head. I was like, okay, I’m going to view the audience around me as if they’re my friends and family, and I’m going to view the runway as if I’m walking down the aisle,” she tells Chioma Nnadi on this Wednesday’s episode of The Run-Through.A few weeks before her bridal moment, Mandava had made history as the first Indian model to open a Chanel show: that one being Blazy’s Métiers d’Art 2025–2026 presentation, staged in a New York City subway station. In a full-circle moment, her look at the show was not unlike the outfit she’d worn when she was scouted.“I was on my way to grab biryani with a friend after getting rejected from an interview,” she recalls. “I was waiting for him at Atlantic Avenue when my now ‘mother agent’ came up to me and asked, ‘Are you a model?’ I said, ‘No.’ And he said, ‘Do you want to be one?’”Initially skeptical, Mandava was ultimately persuaded by the prospect of paying off her school debts. Just a few months later, she had fully launched her modeling career and amassed more than 500,000 followers on social media. “My dad is collecting every newspaper,” she says. “He’s clipping all the articles about me, like [in] The New York Times. I don’t even know how he got it. They don’t ship to India.”Earlier in the episode, our fashion week coverage continues with Chloe and Arden Fanning Andrews, Vogue’s beauty editor at large, sharing their thoughts in the car following Jonathan Anderson’s latest collection for Dior. Their highlights included the epic lilypad shoes, Love Story’s Paul Anthony Kelly dancing to the runway music, and the “wiglets” (you must listen to find out what those are!). Reflecting on the greenhouse setting, Arden made one bold prediction: “Sweat is in.” You heard it here first, folks!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Wunmi Mosaku Was a Math Genius, Now She’s an Oscar Nominee
It’s Day 2 of Shark Week!Today on the show, actress Wunmi Mosaku joins Chioma in the London podcast studio. The two dive into Sinners — from how she landed the role to the powerful lessons she learned while portraying Annie.“My team said, ‘Ryan Coogler wants to meet you for his next film.’ And I was like, ‘Ryan Coogler knows who I am?’” she recalls, reflecting on the moment she was first invited to audition. Fast forward to today: Wunmi has earned her first Academy Award nomination and picked up her first BAFTA just last week.Wunmi also opens up about why she chose to announce her second pregnancy at the Golden Globe Awards. “I wanna be present, and if I’m divorcing my head and my body, I’m not really welcoming the baby into this too,” she says, referencing the difficulties of keeping her pregnancy under wraps. “It feels like you’re kind of taking them for granted. They’re here with you.”Spotting a gap in the maternity fashion industry, Wunmi shares why she decided to launch her own line, Iyadé — meaning “mother has arrived” in Yoruba. She even hints at what she might be wearing to the Academy Awards next weekend. Listen here!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Inside Milan Fashion Week: Debuts at Gucci, Marni and Fendi
Happy Day 1 of Shark Week!Today, we’re on the ground at Milan Fashion Week. There were debuts from Meryll Rogge at Marni, Maria Grazia Chiuri at Fendi, and – most anticipated of all – Demna at Gucci. Nicole Phelps, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue Italia Francesca Ragazzi, and Vogue contributor Luke Leitch were there to take it all in, and The Run-Through was right there with them.The question going into the Gucci show was: who is Demna now? After a decade of deconstruction and conceptual provocation at Balenciaga—jackets made from trousers, outrageous couture wrapped in 50 meters of tulle—the designer stepped into one of fashion's most iconic houses with an eye towards what fashion needs now.At Marni, Meryll Rogge brought her knitwear expertise and a genuine emotional connection to the brand: she bought her first pair of Marni platforms with her first paycheck as an assistant at Marc Jacobs, and wore a Marni skirt to her brother's wedding as a teenager. At Moschino, Creative Director Adrian Appiolaza went back to his Argentine roots, finding inspiration in the landmarks, monuments and icons of his home country. The show closed with a model carrying a piggy bank purse and wearing shoes encrusted in euros. "It's not just about creativity, it's about finances," Appiolaza told Phelps backstage.Earlier in the week, Vogue World Milan was announced for September 22nd at the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II—"the Sistine Chapel of Shopping," as Leitch called it—with the theme of the human touch in the age of technology.
