Lucien Pagès on Christian Lacroix, Coming Out in Fashion and the Colette Legacy | Fashion Forensics

Fashion communications and PR specialist Lucien Pagès needs no introduction in the world of fashion and design. Starting out as an intern for Gianfranco Ferré during his tenure as the Creative Director at Christian Dior, Pagès went on to create a PR empire with the launch of his own agency in 2006 - Lucien Pagès Communication. Since then, he has looked after the vision and expression of the greatest fashion designers and brands of our time - Schiaparelli, Saint Laurent, Emilio Pucci, Jacquemus, JW Anderson, as well as discovering and supporting some of the most exciting young talent like Dilara Findikoglu, Duran Lantink and more. Coming on Fashion Forensics, Pagès shares the building blocks of his vision identity - from watching Joanna Lumley play Patsy in the iconic British comedy series Absolutely Fabulous, all through designing the very last capsule collection for the greatest fashion incubator Colette before it shut its doors, he relays that he never had a plan, but he had a vision for his life. Welcome to Fashion Forensics - the visual podcast where we examine fashion as a non-transaction with some of the world’s best artists, stylists, designers, photographers and editors, stripping it down to its core identity. Join me, Angel Nemov, a fashion editor and journalist in examining how past imagery has shaped our present identity, and what that means for our collective future.
