Summary

Alexa Chung, the multi-hyphenate TV presenter, model, designer, and self-described “geriatric ‘it’ girl” joins The Run-Through podcast this week to walk us through her jam-packed fashion month. From making her New York City Runway debut, to returning to designing after winding down her label, this conversation is an inspiring, and often funny, reflection on reinventing yourself again, and again, and again.

We kick the episode off with a review of all of the London Fashion Week highlights with co-host Chloe Malle, and Fashion Director Laura Ingham. Plus, the behind-the-scenes story of Harry Styles looking lovingly at Ingham as they sat front row at the S.S. DALEY show. Swoon.

0:00.0	This is The Run Through. I'm Chloe Mel, and I am joined today by British folks, Laura Ingham.
0:10.9	Laura, can you introduce yourself, please?
0:13.5	Hi, I'm Laura Ingham, the deputy director of the Global Fashion Network based here in London.
0:19.4	And what does that mean?

1:03.3	that you saw in London last week, or was it this week? We just wrapped up. I know, we just
1:08.6	wrapped up. They finished on Monday.
1:16.7	Fashion Month just feels so long to me that everything feels like it must have been ages ago.
1:28.3	I know. It really only just happened. But we've been lucky. First of all, thankfully, for the first time and it feels like forever, it didn't rain at Fashion Week. So let's just be grateful for that. So that was really great. It really kicked off on Thursday night. So the night before the start of the
1:34.6	kind of official schedule, Charlie XX played over at Olympic Park, which was really incredible,
1:42.7	like true rat girl vibes.
1:45.3	Even though it was H&M, it didn't feel too corporate or?
1:49.6	No, not at all.
1:50.9	Our entire team virtually, I think, were there.
