Among the endlessly fascinating topics examined were the birth of the supermodel, the prevalence of grunge, the irresistible glamour of Tom Ford’s Gucci, the explosive collision of hip-hop and fashion, the rapidly changing nature of red carpet style, and the legacies of London-based renegades like John Galliano and Alexander McQueen.
