Oh, this young thing? Questions of originality: when new is old, and old is new, are you still you? This week's guest is a Manufacture New York incubator member, Heart and Noble jewelry designer Cristina Gabriele. The gang discusses a wide range of topics in this episode, from Made in America's upswing, to new clients for haute couture and what may happen to it, to the next big thing expected from Apple. Big thanks to experimental musician Aimee Norwich for hooking us up with a new sound mixing board; her song "Child" plays at the end of the show. references: * Flat 128 * Pringle of Scotland * The Antwerp Six * Walter Van Beirendonck * Ann Demeulemeester * Dries Van Noten * Dirk Van Saene * Dirk Bikkembergs * Marina Yee * see also: Martin Margiela * Atelier360 * poaches-another-luxury-executive-iwatch-nears.html">speculation about the iWatch (BoF / Reuters) * Made In American Back In Fashion (WWD / Paywall) * Younger Clients Drive Growth of Couture (WWD / Paywall) * Garment Industry Development Corporation (GIDC) * Garment District Business Improvement District * CFDA Incubator * Daniel Vosovic * Gemma Redux * Prabal Gurung * Timo Weiland * Christian Cota (site down at time of publication) * Jonathan Simkhai * The HOPE Conference
