Less than two years into Bazaar’s triumphant return, the magazine’s spare sculptural look was being imitated everywhere. Bazaar had, practically overnight, defined a new visual landscape. But as the competition scrambled to copy Fabien’s innovative use of typography and negative space, Liz and Fab kept moving, mixing supermodels and street photographers, grunge and glam, punk and posh. In this episode, we talk to Fabien Baron, Paul Cavaco, Linda Evangelista, Tonne Goodman, Elissa Santisi, David Sims, Richard Sinnott, Mario Sorrenti, and Amber Valletta about some of the most important fashion shoots of the Nineties, stories still widely referenced today.

Liz Tilberis was nice. Legendarily nice. People claimed that when she fired an editor, they left feeling they’d won something. (They usually left with a chic little gift, too.) In this episode, we explore the way that Liz’s natural warmth and ability to charm assistants and royalty alike made her not only something of a unicorn in fashion but fueled her ascent from Sixties London art student to editor of British Vogue and contributed to the unlikely success of her Harper’s Bazaar.

With Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Grace Coddington, and Patrick Jephson, former private secretary to Princess Diana.
