Before the 2000s, Hollywood and fashion were largely considered separate entities, but the December 2000 Vogue cover featuring Nicole Kidman and her musical debut in Baz Luhrmann’s Moulin Rouge! was revolutionary in bridging the gap between the two worlds.

Meanwhile, with celebrities under the watchful eye of the paparazzi like never before, stars like Sienna Miller became fashion icons. As a result, celebrity stylists were in high demand. This episode examines how the worlds of Hollywood and high fashion diffused into one another in the 2000s. We explore how stars like Lady Gaga used fame to fuel bold fashion choices and why the cover of Vogue featured more entertainers than ever before. Hear about Vogue’s role in transforming fashion into a form of entertainment in and of itself.

Episode featuring: Baz Luhrmann, Sienna Miller, Nicola Formichetti, Kate Mulleavy, Laura Mulleavy, Kate Young, and Rachel Zoe, and Vogue’s editorial team Mark Holgate, Ivan Shaw, and Mark Guiducci. Hosted by Hamish Bowles.
