“I would pose the question to anybody at the table,” said fashion journalist Laurie Brookins, as part of the panel discussion which took place at the filming of theFashionDish, a new original series from tFS, “what are the shows you go to where you see true design?”

Stylist Robert Verdi was ready with an answer: “KaufmanFranco. And I get that skinny rich girls are the only ones who can wear it but I don’t care. I love skinny rich girls.”

Some other designers the panelists mentioned: Ruffian, Public School, Karen Walker, Tanya Taylor and Bibhu Mohipatra (pictured below). See the full conversation in the clip.
