  • Protest Fashion: Boilersuits! The Money Heist Episode

    Protest Fashion: Boilersuits! The Money Heist Episode
    Jun 2 2021
    For the FINAL EPISODE of SEASON 1, we discuss how the power of protest and fashion in Netflix's Money Heist is represented in the show's use of 'The Boilersuit'. For those of us who have grown up during the 21st century, it has hard to believe that this staple feature of most of our wardrobes was once strictly assigned to men. Focusing on the likes of Tokyo and Nairobi, we focus on the feminist history of the boilersuit. Andrea Arhagba chats with Money Heist fanatic Onyi about the future of boilersuits in our personal style, Tokyo and Nairobi as fashion foils, dubbing, how the show went from national Spanish miss to international hit and the Money Heist K-Drama in the works.

    Steppin' To The Motown Side! The Dreamgirls Episode
    Mar 10 2021
    This week’s episode explores the old-school sparkle of the Motown era in the film á clef Dreamgirls. The fashionable musical spotlights 1960s counterculture where Black artists like Diana Ross and The Supremes, and Marvin Gaye redefined fashion, music, aesthetics and culture in Civil Rights era America. With mermaid dresses, Swarovski crystals, denim western suits and synthetic bouffant wigs it is fair to say the Dreamettes slay the 'Dolly Girl' look. Andrea Arhagba chats with Book-ish Content Creator and Writer Olivia-Savannah about first encounters with Motown, diva-isms, girl groups and matching outfits and lead singer body politics.
