Bella Freud's Fashion Neurosis Podcast Analyzes Kate Moss
Bella Freud, great-granddaughter of Sigmund Freud and daughter of painter Lucian Freud, has launched a video podcast titled "Fashion Neurosis" on YouTube. In it, she plays a psychotherapist interviewing fashion figures like Rick Owens and Kate Moss, who lie on a couch while she asks about unresolved traumas and career milestones. Moss discussed her uncomfortable experience posing nude at age 15 for a photo shoot and its impact on her and her brother. Freud, a former designer for Vivienne Westwood and her own brand in the 1990s, as well as a failed relaunch of Biba, says clothes are a pretext for conversations about identity. She told Vogue Italia she aims to include people from diverse fields, not just fashion. The podcast explores why people choose certain clothes and how they feel wearing them.
