The Fitting Room with Brooke & Pechuga

This week on TFR, Brooke and Johnny ruminate over the record-breaking $10,000,000 sale of Jane Birkin's famous Hermès handbag, the tribulations of pet ownership, and grieving the breakup of a major stylist/client team.

This week on The Fitting Room, Brooke and Johnny share musings on Jonathan Anderson’s debut Dior show, the wild auction of Princess Diana's belongings and financing choices of the bidders, that Bezos-Sanchez wedding and subsequent Vogue cover, and of course, Anna Wintour stepping down as Vogue’s Editor.

Brooke and Johnny are back to yapping in "Season 3," diving right into Johnny's latest New York adventure to see Jane Birkin's legendary namesake Hermès bag at Sotheby's, luxury economics, celebrity wellness contradictions, and the realities of maintaining creative outlets while running your own business.

Brooke and Johnny are back with another movie night! This time, we are celebrating the 28th anniversary of the 1995 cult classic Party Girl, starring "queen of the indies" Parker Posey. Join in as your hosts discuss the iconic fashion film directed by Daisy Von Scherler Meyer, and break down some of the legendary costume design by Michael Clancy, the film's thematic elements, fun production tea, Lady Bunny's credit, and more!

This week on TFR Brooke and Johnny recap the 2023 MetGala: the looks, the homages, who was missed, that Vogue Livestream (flop!), and who they deemed Queen of the Met this year. Our hosts also put forth their official bid to be correspondents for the 2024 gala, so if anyone has a direct line to Ms. Wintour please let her know!

Johnny shares the epic tale of John Galliano's visit to the Pechuga Vintage showroom.

Join us this week in The Fitting Room for a late night catch up with your hosts Brooke & Johnny! The duo discuss the recent BAFTAs, Louis Vuitton's new Creative Director announcement, upcoming Fashion Month shows, and more. Listen in as they muse on Schiaparelli's undeniable red carpet saturation, the house's longevity under Daniel Roseberry, and what Johnny and other collectors are actually buying. Plus, we hear the amazing recap of Johnny's run-in with Lana Del Rey at his childhood 7-11, and are now pondering if we should all be shopping for clothes at the convenience store.

This week our hosts celebrate the legacy of the late Dame Vivienne Westwood, "the fashion designer's designer." Johnny reads from his memorial tribute that he published in Dazed Magazine, and Brooke leads us through a quick-study by interviewing our very own Westwood head (Johnny, of course) on the amazing life and designs of the dame. 

This week’s episode of The Fitting Room is all about our favorite drawn girl, “Sailor Moon”! Join in as Brooke and Johnny explore the fashion world of the legendary Japanese manga. Our hosts discuss how Naoko Takeuchi, the manga’s creator, found inspiration in the 90’s Supermodel era, chemistry, and astronomy to create her Moon Kingdom and they finish the episode reimagining what each of the Sailor Guardians would wear in 2023. Thank you so much to our listener @zendayastylefiles who wrote in to our TFR Hotline with this topic suggestion. 

This week, for our last episode of 2022, singer/ songwriter, party enthusiast, and overall fashion girlie Slayyyter joins Brooke & Johnny (and Lucas!) in The Fitting Room for a holiday slay. In uncle Rick & Vivienne Westwood from Pechuga Vintage, Slayyyter muses on her pop girl eras, her love for post-modern furniture, & how the Chateau Marmont inspired her hit song “Daddy as F*ck,”. Moreover,  she tells us what she’ll be up to in 2023. Make sure to stick around for the TFR Rapid Fire questions, these will be our most shocking ones yet. 

It’s Auction Week at The Fitting Room! Join in as Brooke and Johnny break down all things auctions, including the registration process, etiquette, lingo, and more. The pair get eyes on the latest fashion lots at Kerry Taylor, uncover a T-Rex and “important watches” at Sotheby’s Luxury Week, and note the somber timing of Fleetwood Mac’s archive sale at Julien’s. With the auction houses saving some of their best inventory as part of their end-of-year sales what will our hosts be bidding on? Tune in to find out! 

This week in The Fitting Room, Brooke and Johnny are thrilled to welcome back dear friend and TFR’s Hermès correspondent, Chelsey Thomas from Adore the Couture. Chelsey, reporting in a dazzling vintage Christian Dior suede jacket (of course), shares the latest on Hermès: her recent acquisitions and sales, a trip to visit the new store location in New York City, rumors of back-door deals with sales associates, and we can’t believe it’s true, but the brand’s famed Birkin bag is being sold at Walmart! And just as the brand is supposedly “tightening the reins.” Babe, what can we say? It’s the Wild West out here, but we love equestrian puns, and we ADORE Chelsey.

This week we are thrilled to have the inimitable Lauren Lepire of Timeless Vixen join us in The Fitting Room. Lauren, the foremost collector of 1940s vintage and Ossie Clark’s biggest fan, shares her amazing journey with Brooke and Johnny; from discovering vintage during her high school years, collecting & selling in college, to working as Courtney Love’s personal vintage liaison, this episode is a celebration of vintage fashion & old Hollywood glam that you won’t want to miss.
