In this intimate and inspiring conversation, designer, entrepreneur, and style icon Nicole Richie joins Sarah Davis, Founder and President of Fashionphile, to explore the enduring power of  vintage fashion and its role in shaping a more conscious, expressive industry. With a lifelong  appreciation for storytelling through style, Nicole has championed the beauty of timeless design,  sustainability, and personal expression, values that deeply align with the ethos of Fashionphile.  

Together, Nicole and Sarah discuss how vintage fashion has influenced Nicole’s own design  sensibility, her process as Creative Director of House of Harlow, and her vision for the future of  fashion as both a designer and advocate. The session touches on how resale contributes to the  cultural and environmental value of fashion and why authenticity in style, in business, and in  sustainability matters more than ever. This dynamic conversation offers a glimpse into the  intersection of creativity, commerce, and conscious consumerism, led by two trailblazers who are  redefining what it means to honor fashion’s past while innovating for its future.
