About the episode
Lauren rings up her old pal, Brother Vellies founder Aurora James, to discuss how James’s nonprofit, the Fifteen Percent Pledge, is mobilizing to support Black-owned businesses affected by the fires, and what fashion brands can do for people out in Los Angeles. Aurora is also the vice chair of the Council of Fashion Designers of America. In recent years, she also also partnered with investment fund VMG on the Parity Collective, which funds Black startups. All that said, she knows her stuff and has some great insights about what’s happening out here. Lauren also rounds up the best of this week’s Line Sheet, from the Proenza Schouler bombshell(s) to Charlotte Tilbury’s dupe war.
