  • Fine, I'll admit it.

  • I just love fashion.

  • Ah, sorry.

  • Okay, fine, I'll admit it.

  • I love fashion.

  • I love fashion.

  • But I wouldn't consider myself a fashion nerd in the sense that I'm not super educated on the history of fashion.

  • I love the technical side of fashion, for example, like how to balance the colors of an outfit, or even the intricacies of how things are constructed, or the intricacies of how different fabrics work and how they lay on the body.

  • Like, I love fashion in a very current way.

  • You know, I love going to fashion shows and watching new collections come down the Runway in real time.

  • I love fashion right now.

  • I love fashion in the current moment.

  • But I just don't know a lot about fashion history.

  • And I think that this is important for me as a fashion lover because history plays a huge role in fashion.

  • Like, when you're interested in fashion, you're naturally, whether you want to be or not, kind of interested in history, because the two are heavily tied together.

  • We've been wearing clothes for a very long time.

  • And that's why I'm excited to sort of develop my knowledge about fashion history, which is why I'm so excited to be speaking to our guest today, Richard Thompson Ford.

  • He is a Stanford law professor, Bay Area, Palo Alto, represent.

  • I'm not from Palo Alto, but I am from the Bay Area.

  • So, you know, I feel close to him in that way.
