Few designers can claim a lineage as steeped in art (hello, Lucian Freud!) and revolutionary ideas (hallo, Sigmund Freud!) as Bella Freud. Fortunately for us, the apple does not fall far from the tree that keeps on giving. Equal parts witty and downright cool, Freud burst onto the fashion scene with her cult-favorite slogan sweaters—bearing phrases such as “Ginsberg Is God” and “Je T’Aime Jane.” But knitwear was only the beginning. Through her eponymous label, fragrance line, interiors collaborations, and acclaimed podcast, Fashion Neurosis, Freud has built a world where style and conversation constantly converge. Fresh from probing the minds of artists, actors, and fellow fashion luminaries as they recline on her signature couch, Freud now finds herself on the other side of the examination in Dress Code’s Haute Seat.
