Fashion’s version of football might just be the
auction sale of Jane Birkin’s original Hermès Birkin bag. Reporting live from Paris, writer and friend of the pod Marisa Meltzer joins The Run-Through to chat with Chioma about her book It Girl, which explores the life and legacy of the ultimate it-girl, Jane Birkin, ahead of the much-anticipated auction that took place last Thursday. They also dive into what defines an it-girl, the origins of French girl style, and how looking effortless often takes real effort.
Earlier in the episode, Vogue’s Global Director of Social Sam Sussman drops in to share what it was like attending the Birkin bag auction and discuss why she couldn’t stop watching this season of Love Island (hint: we love Amaya Papaya)!
