Summary

Joining me this week is activist, actress and supermodel Lily Cole. She was one of the earliest advocates for sustainability in the fashion industry and since then, has been at the forefront of climate activism. This was a fascinating conversation that took so many brilliant twists and turns - from discovering queerness later in life, to queer artists that have been forgotten in history, to the best self-help books you can buy.

We have linked Lily’s brilliant reading suggestions below.

styling easy and designed to protect hair from excessive heat to help maintain color, shine,

all needs. It's really versatile. The Dyson AirRap multi-stiler, the Dyson supersonic hairdry

Hello, part two of our lovely chat with Lily Cole. Activism, environmental stuff. Very

1:59.2

interesting chat, here it is. You said that you came to a new understanding of your relationship
