Are there any other #FashionBooks that you would add to this #FashionStudies starter’s list?
I just finished listening to the last episode of the last official season of @sewwhatpodcast and I almost break into tears 😢 This podcast has been a faithful companion during my daily commutes and I’m so going to miss it! (Plus I’m super proud of my girl @IsabellaRosner for it!)
