About this episode

Because one episode could not contain all of our Paris adventures! Today we chat about an exhibition on hair and body hair that we saw at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, three fashion exhibitions at the Palais Galliera, fashion and the French Revolution as seen at the Musée Carnavalet and what the dancers at Paris' famed Crazy Horse did--and didn't--wear on-stage.
