| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Art and Fanning Andrews, Vogue's beauty editor at large. My husband and I talk a lot of eBay strategy together because it is something that we have bonded over since the beginning of our relationship. We've known each other for 20 years, and we've been using eBay for even longer than that, both of us. He's very proud of his five-star review, which I have the same. We're pretty popular. |
| 0:22.4 | We have a really good reputation on you, guys. |
| 0:29.1 | This is The Run Through. |
| 0:30.3 | I'm Chloe Mel. |
| 0:31.5 | And I'm Cheminade. |
| 0:37.4 | And today, our beloved Nicole Phelps spoke with the legendary designer Anna Swede and her niece, Chase Sweet Wonders. |
| 0:39.7 | I have to say, I really love this power family dynamic. |
| 0:44.3 | I've been a fan of Chase since a show she did that was based on the novel City on Fire. |

| 1:25.9 | So that's a real time capsule that I think everyone will enjoy |
| 1:29.9 | paging through. And it also has Anna's fashion drawings and a lot of great stories from the 90s. |
| 1:37.1 | Anna, Chase, and Nicole discussed 90s fashion, Anna's career, and what Chase has learned from her aunt. But yes, I think everyone's |
| 1:45.6 | going to love this. And before we get to that, Choma, we need to talk about your bonkers cover. |
| 1:55.2 | It is Gwenith at sort of at her most delightfully unhinged. |
| 2:05.3 | This is my favorite version of, my favorite version of Gwen. |
| 2:11.3 | Because I think people tend to forget that she actually has a really great sense of humor and doesn't take herself too seriously. |
| 2:19.7 | And we really wanted to encapsulate that sort of wink-wink nature of her personality in the cover. And you know I love a I love a giggle I love a sense of humor I knew that Venetia Scott would totally get that from her yes |
