Summary
In honor of the release of In Vogue: The 90s, a six-part retrospective that covers all of the pivotal moments in fashion from that decade, The Run-Through is sharing an episode from the podcast of the same name (originally aired in 2020) that inspired the new docuseries.
The 90s, a pivotal decade when fashion and mainstream culture collided, can best be understood through the invention of the supermodel. The fashion models who rose to prominence at the turn of the decade, transforming into supermodels, married the fashion industry with mainstream pop culture.
Episode 1: The Rise of The Supermodel features guest interviews with Victoria Beckham, Garren, Tonne Goodman, and Camilla Nickerson. From Vogue’s editorial team: Mark Holgate, Laird Borrelli-Persson, and Nicole Phelps.

You can watch In Vogue: The 90s on Hulu and Disney+, out now.
