Elodie Blanchard - episode 8

Published: Feb. 14, 2018, 8:39 p.m.

Elodie was on the fast track to be major player in the world of Parisian couture but found herself bored by the prospect of a career designing frou frou frocks for wealthy women. She left Paris and couture behind and moved to LA where she created conceptual garments, and theatrical events that examined the performative nature of garment, identity and fashion. Now an award winning designer, she's crafted a career that fosters her love of making for the sake of making. Elodie talks eloquently with Bill about hard work, risk inspiration, creativity parenthood and community. www.elodieblanchard.com
