    The Rise of Saudi Art and Heritage on the Global Stage

    For the very first time, a panel has come together on the podcast to speak on a subject that needed to be discussed: why art from Saudi Arabia is now in the spotlight. This is on the back of Hafla by Sotheby's, an ongoing exhibition celebrating art from the Middle East. On the panel we have Ashkan Baghestani, the Head of Contemporary Day Sales at Sotheby’s and Princess Nourah Al Faisal, the founder of Nuun Jewels and the CEO of Art of Heritage, a Saudi luxury fashion house. The panel explores the cultural richness and historical depth of Saudi Arabia, emphasizing the importance of preserving and promoting traditional crafts. Additionally, Princess Nourah shares insights on her jewelry design journey with Nuun Jewels and collaborations with Asprey, while Adhlal—the consultancy she founded—aims to nurture future Saudi designers. The episode delves into the challenges and potentials of the Middle Eastern art market, advocating for broader exposure and appreciation of the region's artistic heritage. Hosted on Acast.

    Magazines, Media, and Manhattan with Dana Brown

    Magazines have declined, and while the digital world offers up more content than we can consume, we've lost the editors who were the tastemakers of our cultural zeitgeist. Dana Brown is the author of Dilettante, a memoir that takes the reader back to the golden era of magazines and publishing in its epicenter: New York City. But the book also tells you Dana’s story - a barback who got noticed by the editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair and then spent over two decades at the publication. We’re so excited to share this next episode of Firsts with you that will educate you or take you back to 90s New York, open up a conversation on the power of writing, and above all will include candid tales from the heyday of the print world.  Follow the show to stay updated - there’s never a dull moment on Firsts by Deena!  Hosted on Acast.

  3. The Enduring Legacy of Elsa Peretti

    The Enduring Legacy of Elsa Peretti

    A rebel. An artist. A maverick. Elsa Peretti created jewelry inspired by the world around her and this is only part of her legacy. Elsa inspired a style of jewelry that is classic and timeless, with pieces that have held resonance across generations. Collaborations with designers such as Halston, Giorgio di Sant'Angelo, and most successfully with Tiffany placed Elsa’s work on the map globally. But under her iconic pieces — the bone cuff, the vase necklace, and Diamonds by the Yard — lies a woman who created with authenticity that reverberated through her work. In this episode, Deena pays homage to Elsa by tracing her origins, discussing her creative process, and sharing her thoughts on what made Elsa a force to reckon with. Hosted on Acast.

    From Runway to Red Carpet

    In this episode, Deena delves into the crossroads of fashion and the Red Carpet. Exploring the shift from spontaneous elegance to calculated stylization, she recalls the pioneering Giorgio Armani Oscars moments from the 80s which redefined the interaction between fashion and Hollywood. Reflecting on Versace's imprint on the Red Carpet, Deena highlights iconic instances such as Elizabeth Hurley's safety pin dress and Jennifer Lopez's jungle-print dress which inspired the creation of Google Images. Looking back at these moments, Deena boldly raises the question: has today’s meticulous styling dimmed the once-spontaneous allure of the red carpet? This episode will leave you thinking about the interplay of authenticity, branding, and beauty in today's world of celebrity couture. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
