Critical Shopping with Cintra Wilson

For this episode we caught up with Cintra Wilson, one of our absolute favorite writers, the former Critical Shopper for the New York Times, the author of several books of cultural criticism,  a one-time StyleZeitgeist magazine contributor, the mother of our most favorite phrase that keyboard ever put onto computer screen, “If Marni is post-sex, Comme des Garcons is post reason,” and an all around brilliant punk. We talk about her tenure at the New York Times, her breathtaking metaphors and inimitable sense of humor, and touch a bit on fashion semiotics. This one is a must for any aspiring fashion writer.
