About this episode

Lauren discusses design trends and experiences at Salone del Mobile with Kelsey Keith.

Lauren is joined by Kelsey Keith—global creative director at MillerKnoll and author of Ground Condition—who has been attending Salone del Mobile, Milan’s premier design fair, since 2011. They discuss how the week has changed over the past 10 years, fashion’s Salone invasion, where to eat and shop vintage in Milan, if it’s okay to wear a black blazer, whether Kering’s brands are still desirable, and more.
