What I Wore When | Glamour

On this podcast, you’ve heard from a lot of familiar names, including actors, singers, and reality stars. Rose Kirk is a name you’re probably not familiar with.

This week, the executive sits down with Perrie to share what she wore during her first big job interview and how her style has evolved since, the challenges and benefits of being a woman in the C-suite, and what her big purchase was after she started making real money.

It's impossible to find a woman between the ages of 25 and 45 that doesn’t know every word to the song "Unwritten" (or at least to the chorus that starts with the catchy “feel the rain on your skin").

The former lead singer of punk-rock band Gossip is a lot of things: a bonafide rock star, a designer, a style icon, a staunch advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and a self-describing “fat, feminist lesbian from Arkansas.” This week, Beth sits down with Perrie to talk about her love of Old Navy, whether fashion’s inclusivity movement is really pushing us forward, and whether she plans to delve back into plus-size design.

La La Anthony’s career has taken many turns, each of which have been pivotal. Starting out on the radio, she became a host of MTV’s TRL during the early 2000s, which morphed into hosting a handful of popular reality shows, which then turned into an impressive acting career, including a role in Starz’ critically-acclaimed drama Power. This week, Perrie talks to La La about why it matters what a character wears when they get killed off a popular show, her style as a teenager in the ‘90s, her perspective on money and personal style, and—of course—her memorable cameo on a 2003 episode of Sex and the City.    Follow @lala on Instagram and Twitter.

If you're obsessed with the world of professional ballet, this one's for you: this week Perrie sits down with Tiler Peck, a principal dancer with the New York City Ballet Company who recently wrapped this year’s run as the Sugar Plum Fairy in The Nutcracker, one of the most iconic ballets ever staged. Tiler explains why putting on that particular costume was pivotal to her life, but also indulged (many) questions about the cutthroat pop culture representations of professional ballet dancers. She also talks about her love of shoes, her close relationship with fashion legend Valentino, and what the future might look like for the New York City Ballet, which faced some high-profile management changes in 2018.  Follow @tilerpeck on Instagram and Twitter.

This week, Alli sits down with Perrie to talk about raising millions for a female-centric business in front of boardrooms of men, as well as personal style and whether it changes as you make more money, divorce, body image, her new passion for wellness and self-care, and her unique perspective on wealth.    Follow @alliwebb on Instagram.

Seemingly spawned from a more glamorous era, chef Angie Mar is a force of nature. Under her careful, curated approach, the Beatrice Inn restaurant—a New York City institution—has gone from exclusive cool-kid nightspot to an grown-up den of decadence with outstanding, unapologetically over-the-top food. This week, Angie sits down with Perrie to talk about her gorgeous first book, Butcher and Beast, and shares the touching story behind the pink feathered Oscar de la Renta dress she chose for the cover. We also talk about being a woman in a notoriously competitive industry, her skincare secrets (hint: it involves beef), and her unwavering love of fashion.    Follow @angiekmar on Instagram and @chef_amar on Twitter, and shop Angie’s book, Butcher and Beast, in bookstores and online.    For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.

If you were addicted to MTV’s reality show Making the Band in the early 2000s, you’ll surely remember Laurieann Gibson, the tough-as nails choreographer who went above and beyond to make sure amateur talent did everything they could to land their dream job. This week, Laurieann sits down with Perrie to talk about her experience on that seminal show, becoming a 2019 judge on So You Think You Can Dance, and the $39.99 dress she wore to her first celebrity-filled party on Diddy’s yacht. Laurieann also sets the record straight about her infamous relationship with Lady Gaga, for whom she served as creative director until 2011 when they parted ways to much online speculation and fanfare.  For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.

Jameela Jamil is an interesting character. She flawlessly plays a lovable narcissist on NBC’s The Good Place but she’s also carved out a space for herself as a social media vigilante, regularly calling out brands, celebrities, and reality stars for potentially problematic behavior, including the relentless promotion of diet teas and unrealistic body image. This week, Jameela is characteristically candid—including about her so-called beef with the Kardashians, her own struggles with disordered eating, spending all her money during her 20s on good food and Chanel, her love of online shopping, and the truly shocking thing she did to make sure she didn’t get fired from The Good Place.    For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.   Watch Jameela on The Good Place, and follow @jameelajamilofficial on Instagram, @jameelajamil on Twitter, and @i_weigh on both.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Since joining Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in 2016, Dorit Kemsley has become one of the most memorable women in the franchise thanks to her daring sense of style, outspoken personality, loyal family, and—yes—slightly ambiguous accent.   On this week’s episode, Dorit sits down with Perrie to talk about a long list of topics including how the cast chooses their outfits, motherhood, her rationale for buying clothes and shoes and bags well into the thousands of dollars, and why she feels that dressing for a man isn’t always such a terrible thing.    Follow @doritkemsley on Instagram and @doritkemsley1 on Twitter.

Sutton Foster is a quiet force: The Broadway superstar has been nominated for six Tony Awards (she’s won two) and for the past six seasons she’s been starring on Younger, the beloved TV Land series that has her playing both a 40-something and a millennial. This week, Sutton sits down with Perrie to talk about what she wore when she auditioned for that show, her favorite musical of all time, her complicated path to motherhood, her new Gucci loafers, and how in some ways, caring less about what you wear to auditions can be an asset.    For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.

No matter your opinion on the Bravo show’s queen bee Stassi Schroeder, it’s impossible to deny how unapologetically herself she is in everything she does. This episode is no different. Stassi sits down with Perrie to talk about being a ghost (on brand!), her upcoming wedding (though she was hyper-secretive about details), when your body becomes public conversation (it sucks), and which Vanderpump cast member is the most annoying on social media (Perrie had an answer.)  For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.

Now a freelance writer and podcaster—be on the lookout for her new audio series in January—Justine sits down with Perrie to talk about how fashion can play a role in a woman’s life during the worst circumstance a person can imagine, and why it isn’t always as simple as throwing on a black dress.    For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.   Justine Harman is a writer, podcaster, and Glamour contributor.

Cook and author Alison Roman has become something of a champion for millennials who prefer hanging out over going out. Her unfussy approach to cooking—coupled with her highly authentic persona—landed her a food column in The New York Times, two successful cookbooks with two more on the way, and thousands of adoring Instagram followers. This week, Alison sits down with Perrie to talk about food, yes, but also personal style and the items she feels most comfortable wearing, the (very) expensive bag she’s dying for but can’t justify, and the outdated fashion “rule” nobody should follow. Alison and Perrie also get into dating deal-breakers, how her feelings about food and relationships can’t always be separated, and the thing she’ll never do on a first—or second—date.     For more on this episode, visit www.glamour.com/whatiworewhen   Find Alison Roman’s cookbooks, Nothing Fancy (a current New York Times bestseller) and Dining In, in bookstores and online, and look for her columns in Bon Appétit and The New York Times.

On Scandal, actor Bellamy Young's character, Mellie Grant, went from scorned first lady to president of the United States and—as you'll learn in her delightful episode of What I Wore When—she might have a pair of Zara pants and Nordstrom pearls to thank. Young explains the very deliberate outfit she put together to audition for the beloved ABC show in a now infamous role she admits changed the course of her life. Also discussed: the time Perrie saw Bellamy on Broadway playing a prostitute in a little-known 1997 musical called The Life; her past life emceeing child beauty pageants and holding temp jobs on Wall Street; and why this southern girl's last meal on earth would definitely include bourbon.   Follow @bellamyyoung on Instagram and @BellamyYoung on Twitter.

Erin Andrews started working as a sideline reporter for ESPN in the early 2000s and everybody knew her name, whether they watched sports or not—probably because there were so few women in her field. Since then she's risen to become one of the most influential sports reporters in the game. In 2014 she landed a hosting gig on Dancing With the Stars, which speaks to her mass appeal with American audiences. Erin's also had some very public challenges, which she discusses with Perrie. These include the aftermath of the unthinkable violation of privacy she faced in 2008, a 2016 cervical cancer diagnosis, and undergoing IVF treatments. Erin and Perrie also talk about height insecurities, Oprah, and why typical game-day apparel really needs an overhaul.   Follow @erinandrews on Instagram and @ErinAndrews on Twitter.

Five years later she's the cohost of the beloved morning show's third hour, the co-anchor of the Saturday edition of Weekend Today and a correspondent for all platforms of NBC News. Here, she explains what she wore to her first day on the job. If you think picking out a dress for work is stressful, imagine having to do it with the knowledge that millions of people will be seeing—and maybe judging—it. Sheinelle and Perrie also talk about ’90s style (shout out to Timberland boots and shopping at men’s stores), parenting, aging, her remarkably supportive colleagues, and the fact that she still doesn’t own an “I’m successful!” handbag despite being, in fact, quite successful.

Actress Zoey Deutch tells the story of what she wore when she celebrated that seminal milestone for any Jewish 13-year-old—becoming a bat mitzvah. Turns out, even being the daughter of celebrities didn’t exempt Zoey from wearing an outfit she now cringes at—a universal feeling for all women who had the task of choosing a special-occasion outfit as teenagers. Zoey and Perrie also chat about shooting The Politician, the item of clothing that acts as an intimidation shield at “scary parties,” the book they both agree is the best read of 2019, the stress of maintaining skincare routines, and—because why not?—her mom’s spaghetti Bolognese.  For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.
