What It Takes to Lead in Fashion: The Cut’s Editor-in-Chief Lindsay Peoples
This week, Morgan DeBaun is joined by Lindsay Peoples, editor-in-chief of The Cut, for an eye-opening conversation on the state of the fashion industry and Lindsay's journey to redefine success for herself.
In the episode, Lindsay and Morgan pull back the curtain on the fashion world, challenging its perceived progressiveness and exposing the centralization of power that often leaves Black designers at a disadvantage.
Lindsay opens up about the vital work her foundation is doing to create real opportunities for underrepresented designers, and how consumers can support Black creatives directly. Beyond fashion, Lindsay shares her “pinch me” moments, balancing a life that’s both glamorous and far more grounded than people might expect. She reflects on how her sense of self used to be tied closely to her career, after becoming editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue at just 26.
Tune in for a candid conversation on breaking barriers, empowering others, and finding freedom in self-acceptance. Plus, hear Morgan share insights from her upcoming book, Rewrite Your Rules.
