Pieces of Me is a podcast series from PORTER in which Incredible Women – from Tracee Ellis Ross, Halima Aden and Sam Taylor Johnson to Zainab Salbi – tell their stories through the clothing that they wore at defining moments of their lives. Each week a different inspiring woman takes us “behind the seams” of her extraordinary life.

Veteran fashion editor Carine Roitfeld was an early champion, casting Aden on the cover of her CR Fashion Book and famously in Kanye West’s Yeezy show; although, as Aden explains, that ground-breaking runway moment almost didn’t happen…
