Episode 163: Dress Porn With Isabel Spearman

Why are we all obsessed with dresses? SEPARATES scream the fashion pages. SUITS they howl. But the thing about dresses is - there’s only one thing to decide on in the morning. And once that decision is made then boots and belts and shoes and earrings are just fun and games. Considering we lean so hard on dresses, we are thrilled to have the dress queen on the podcast today: the authority, the grand fromage of frocks. Isabel Spearman styled fashion luminaries and worked for big, beautiful brands like Anya Hindmarch, before founding the addictive Daily Dress Edit in 2019. Championing sustainable, small businesses and showing us all sorts of swishy sensations across the price spectrum, she is a dress devotee. And she’s here to tell us where we need to look now for this summer’s low maintenance, high yield solutions. In other words, she’s here to tell us how to get dressed. Thank God. We talk about the joy of the denim dress, how to wear a floral and not look like it's 2017 and Isabel’s secret favourite dress designers...
