Empathy with Prabal Gurung

Amanda de Cadenet
About this episode

If you love fashion you already know about Prabal Gurung and his legendary career dressing some of the world’s most famous women including former First Lady Michelle Obama and the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton. But, it’s not often that we hear his thoughts on our rapidly changing culture. The world might feel tense these days but as Prabal tells Amanda in this latest episode of her special series, The Conversation: About the Men, “True empathy is employed during time that is difficult, when you're challenged, when it's the toughest time.” We couldn't agree more.
