WNBA star Aja Wilson's love for fashion started when she was just a toddler. “My parents always laugh at me because at a young age I would love things with my back out. I don't know why I would love a good top with my back out. Like, I'm a toddler and my onesie needs to have its back out.” A’ja recalls as she sits down with Head of Editorial Content Chloe Malle and Vogue's Global Casting Director Ignacio Murillo on The Run-Through Podcast.

Wilson’s style has evolved since she was first drafted to the Las Vegas Aces in 2018. She is entering the second year of her Nike signature athlete journey and her latest shoe the A'Two has debuted in Europe. “The process is always pretty hands-on for me. I love to try to make it something for the consumer, but also very comfortable for myself and also durable,” says Wilson. “There's also a tattoo of mine in the tongue of the shoe. It's a sign that says ‘You have to face setbacks in order to move forward.’ So, I feel like that's something everyone can relate to.”

Although lately, there has been cause for celebration rather than setbacks in Wilson’s life as her boyfriend Bam Adebayo who plays for the Miami Heat recently scored 83 points against the Washington Wizards and now the second-highest total in NBA history. A record previously held by the late Kobe Bryant.

“I was actually just sitting in the car for a little bit. I was running a little late, but that's nothing new.” Wilson says about her whereabouts during the record setting game. “And then when I go in and I'm in the tunnel and I just hear his name, they're like, “Bam scored again.”

“And I'm like, I can't go sit down. And I'm just hiding in the tunnel just enough that I can see the jumbotron. But then finally I go sit down and then he misses his first free throw. And I'm just like, “Oh my gosh, it's me.” But at the same time, I know that's how the game goes,’ says Wilson.

“I've seen all the work that [Bam’s] been through. Now it's paying off. And I am so happy that he's able to have that moment in his history. It's pretty cool to kind of see him flourish in that space.”

Off the court, Wilson says the duo are enthralled by watching Shonda Rhimes’s 2012 hit TV show Scandal for the first time. “It's popping in our household and we love us some Olivia Pope and some Jake Ballad and Fitz,” says Wilson. “Those are our homies. I feel like we're just best friends at this point.”

The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

On this Wednesday’s episode of The Run-Through, Doja Cat—Vogue’s April cover star and the host of the second annual Vogue Vintage Market—calls in from her dining room in Los Angeles.

Accompanied by her cat Axel, the 30-year-old rapper shares behind-the-scenes moments from her cover shoot with photographer Willy Vanderperre and Vogue’s contributing style director, Carlos Nazario; gets into her interest in taxidermy (she recently acquired “the ass of a bovine”); and describes what her life looks like during breaks from her Tour Ma Vie World Tour: “Downtime for me is, I put on a heating blanket and play Fortnite, or I watch Judy Justice.”

But she is also thinking ahead—about various tour logistics; about the one major outfit she wears per performance (she keeps staring at sketches for next week’s look without quite knowing what they’ll become). She’s also on the Met Gala host committee this year, but has yet to decide what she’ll turn up in.

Elsewhere in the episode, Doja shares some of the revelations she’s had during her twice-weekly therapy sessions, along with her (surprisingly understated) go-to brands when she’s not onstage.

The marathon that is Awards Season (at least for those of us with jobs in media) finally came to its close last night. As has become tradition, the Run-Through podcast hosts, along with colleagues Taylor Antrim and Christian Allaire, gathered early on this foggy morning to discuss their takes on the 98th Academy Awards.

The conversation started off with everyone’s best dressed picks. For Chioma, this included Wunmi Mosaku who dazzled in her sparkling emerald green Louis Vuitton dress. The list of best dressed also included Renate Reinsve, another star in Louis Vuitton, and Gwenyth Paltrow in Armani Privé who both sported dramatic slits. Slits were just one of the fashion trends making a splash on last night's red carpet, reminding editors of Angelina Jolie’s internet-breaking dress slit at the 2012 ceremony.

Feathers were another item in vogue on the carpet and were worn by Teyana Taylor, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Demi Moore, Nicole Kidman, and Best Supporting Actress winner Amy Madigan. A conversation around the many jewels and rare diamonds being worn last night spawned a curiosity about the guards who work the Oscars. Perhaps a 2027 diamond guard get ready with me story is forthcoming?

As for two of the biggest categories of the night—best actor and best actress—everyone was in agreement that Michael B Jordan and recent guest of the podcast Jessie Buckley, were chic and deserving winners. Up next, Met gala season!

Confidence was one of the key themes from this Paris Fashion Week. Recording from the Vogue Paris office ahead of Chanel and Louis Vuitton, our hosts (and special guest Claire Thomson-Jonville, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue France) were in agreement: many of the new creative directors have stopped auditioning for their roles and started owning them. Nowhere was that clearer than at Givenchy, where Sarah Burton proved she'd hit her stride.

Michael Rider's third outing for Celine at the Institut de France was also a highlight: "Expensive-looking, but aspirationally relatable," as Sarah Mower put it. The Michael Rider effect can already be seen in the wild, with Vogue staffers spotted doing their own styling interpretations inspired by the runway.

Pieter Mulier’s intimate farewell at Alaïa, with standing room and children in the audience, was a moving moment from the week. Mulier’s decision to seat the full atelier team and commemorate them in a book felt particularly meaningful.

As Paris Fashion Week came to a close, all eyes were once again on Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel. British Vogue March cover star (and Run-Through alum!) Bhavitha Mandava was just announced as house ambassador, and her appearance on the runway is highly anticipated. As Chloe Malle said in her sign-off: "Happy Chanel Day to all who celebrate!"

In a little over a week the 98th Academy Awards will take place in Los Angeles. Many of the categories are looking like a toss up but it will be a shock if the Best Leading Actress goes to anyone other than Jessie Buckley for her devastating performance in Hamnet. Having just won variations of best leading lady at the Critics Choice Awards, the SAG Actor Awards, the BAFTAs, and the Golden Globes, Buckley is on a roll.

Earlier in the week, Buckley sat down with guest hosts Taylor Antrim and Marley Marius ahead of today’s theatrical release of The Bride! In creating this retelling of the Bride of Frankenstein, Buckley spoke about the challenge of finding her character. “It was such a huge undertaking to really create three individual personalities and metabolize them and have them be in conversation with myself.” The film was also incredibly physical and required that she learn tap and gaga dancing for the role.

Buckley had worked previously with Maggie Gyllenhaal in The Lost Daughter, who she described as one of the most important women in her life. “Maggie has a real vision and there's so much intention behind what she's trying to say with her stories and why she's choosing to tell a story at all,” Buckley told The Run-Through, “I think what she asks all of her actors and herself is to ask the question that's gonna challenge you.”

With her daughter on the road with her for this press tour, Buckley toggles quickly between “changing a nappy” and putting a red carpet dress on. The combination of being thrust into the spotlight and being a new mother has changed her relationship with fashion. Now working with stylist to the stars Danielle Goldberg, she feels empowered to let herself feel seen in her changing body. “Right at the beginning she was like, I just wanna see you. And I felt like I could breathe for the first time.”

Also on the episode, The Run-Through gets an exclusive behind-the-scenes pass at the Rick Owens and Isabel Marant shows. Between getting their makeup done and getting their clothes on, Alex Consani and Mona Touggard chat about how they make time to read despite the chaos that happens backstage. Plus, Rick Owens himself reveals the inspiration by his collection.

Vivian Wilson became the talk of Milan Fashion Week when she seductively walked the runway of Demna’s debut Gucci show in a floor-length white gown. The 21-year-old model said she was briefed by casting to embody Venus, the Roman goddess of love.

Her path to the Gucci runway began with a casting tape filmed in her own driveway. She walked "like a crazy person, like 8 million times" until she had the perfect take. The result? She ended up positioned in the lineup between icons Kate Moss and Mariacarla Boscono. "When I found that out, I was shaking in my boots," she told Chloe Malle, cozy in a Paris hotel room, while recording today’s episode of The Run Through. "We did it, though."

Before all the fashion week glamour in Paris and Milan, there was a very different life. Wilson spent time studying Japanese at a university in Tokyo, with plans to earn her TEFL certificate and become an ESL teacher. A Teen Vogue cover changed everything. "It completely transformed my career," she said. Now she's in Paris, doing the model thing — castings every hour, NDAs on NDAs — and entirely at peace with the pivot. "I wanna see how big I can get,” she said. “We're just locking the fuck in."

The conversation took a more serious turn when Malle raised the question of whether models look markedly thinner this season than even five years ago. Wilson didn't hesitate. "It's the Ozempic apocalypse, girl. I am so fucking over this."

Off the catwalk, she reads gay fantasy fiction and has a passion for Excel spreadsheets. She is trans, a John Oliver devotee, and has genuine ambitions in voice acting. Her three wishes are to appear in Vogue, attend the Met Gala, and walk for Schiaparelli. She left the hotel room with a piece of the chocolate Eiffel Tower, having resolved to break off a piece from the middle so as "not to compromise its structural integrity."

Also in the episode, Vogue editors share thoughts from the Balmain, Dries Van Noten and Saint Laurent shows at Paris Fashion Week.

When Bhavitha Mandava got word that she was cast as the Chanel Bride for Matthieu Blazy’s highly anticipated Spring 2026 couture show, she approached the role the same way she tackled her research papers at NYU. She headed straight to a Paris library to pore over books on couture and watched every Chanel bride video she could find. “Then I came up with a story in my head. I was like, okay, I'm going to view the audience around me as if they're my friends and family, and I'm going to view the runway as if I'm walking down the aisle.” She told Chioma Nnadi on The Run-Through following her British Vogue cover.

Mandava also made history as the first Indian model to open a Chanel show for the Métiers d'Art 2025 2026 fashion show, staged in a New York City subway station. In a full-circle moment, she wore an outfit reminiscent of what she had on the day she was first scouted.

“I was on my way to grab biryani with a friend after getting rejected from an interview,” she recalled. “I was waiting for him at Atlantic Avenue when my now ‘mother agent’ came up to me and asked, ‘Are you a model?’ I said, ‘No.’ And he said, ‘Do you want to be one?’”

Initially skeptical, Mandava was ultimately persuaded by the prospect of paying off her school debts. Just a few months later, she had fully launched her modeling career and amassed more than 500,000 followers. “My dad is collecting every newspaper,” she said. “He’s clipping all the articles about me like The New York Times. I don’t even know how he got it. They don’t ship to India.”

Earlier in the episode, our fashion week coverage continues with Chloe and Arden Fanning Andrews, Vogue’s beauty editor-at-large. Reporting live straight from the car after Jonathan Anderson’s sophomore collection for Dior, they share their first impressions. Highlights from the show are: the epic lilypad shoes, Love Story’s Paul Anthony Kelly dancing to the runway music, and the “wiglets” (you must listen to find out what that is!). Reflecting on the greenhouse setting, Arden made one bold prediction: “Sweat is in”. You heard it here first, folks!

It’s Day 2 of Shark Week!

Today on the show, actress Wunmi Mosaku joins Chioma in the London podcast studio. The two dive into Sinners — from how she landed the role to the powerful lessons she learned while portraying Annie.

“My team said, ‘Ryan Coogler wants to meet you for his next film.’ And I was like, ‘Ryan Coogler knows who I am?’” she recalls, reflecting on the moment she was first invited to audition. Fast forward to today: Wunmi has earned her first Academy Award nomination and picked up her first BAFTA just last week.

Wunmi also opens up about why she chose to announce her second pregnancy at the Golden Globe Awards. “I wanna be present, and if I’m divorcing my head and my body, I’m not really welcoming the baby into this too,” she says, referencing the difficulties of keeping her pregnancy under wraps. “It feels like you’re kind of taking them for granted. They’re here with you.”

Spotting a gap in the maternity fashion industry, Wunmi shares why she decided to launch her own line, Iyadé — meaning “mother has arrived” in Yoruba. She even hints at what she might be wearing to the Academy Awards next weekend. Listen here!
