  • EP 02 — MYRIAM SCHAEFER

    In today’s episode, I’m joined by Myriam Schaefer, the designer behind the Balenciaga City bag; a creation that emerged in 2001 and went on to become one of the most iconic objects in contemporary fashion and a defining cultural symbol of its era.

    Widely regarded as one of the most important handbag designers of her generation, she has spent decades shaping the fashion industry from behind the scenes.

    Beginning her career as Jean Paul Gaultier’s right hand in the late 1970s, Myriam later gave Nicolas Ghesquière his first major opportunity in fashion, hiring him as her assistant at Jean Paul Gaultier. She went on to serve as Artistic Director of Ready-to-Wear at Nina Ricci, worked across several leading fashion houses including Giorgio Armani, and developed her own line of leather bags.

    Drawing on a remarkable career spanning more than four decades, Myriam reflects on the people, decisions, and creative processes that helped define modern fashion.

    In the second part of our conversation, Milan Vukmirović continues tracing decades of fashion thinking, moving deeper into his experiences across editorial and design contexts, including his time at Jil Sander in the early 2000s. We explore how fashion systems shift over time, how archives inform creative decisions, and how looking beyond surface aesthetics reveals the structures shaping contemporary fashion culture. This episode continues to build a layered understanding of Milan’s approach to fashion as both practice and cultural memory.
