The Rise and Fall (and Rise Again) of Victoria’s Secret

Zoe Saldaña first stepped into the role of Avatar’s Neytiri when she was 24 years-old. Now, the 47 year-old is back for the third film of the James Cameron franchise Avatar: Fire and Ash. "This installment of Avatar [is about] how a family can be resilient and learn to smile and love again after experiencing great loss," Saldaña told Vogue’s Deputy Editor Taylor Antrim and Global Director of Social Sam Sussman ahead of the film's release in US theatres on December 19. "I get really lost into the world of Pandora," says Saldaña about reprising her role. “I really care for the characters that I play. I create a solid backstory for them, so I live more in that reality.” It’s been a big year for Saldaña. On top of Avatar, she is currently Vogue Mexico’s December cover star, she won an Oscar for her role in Emilia Pérez, is currently in production for season 3 of Lioness and also met Pope Leo while in Italy with her three sons. "They were so hyper," reflects Saldaña. "They're like typical 10 and eight year olds and can't focus... And the moment comes and we're right in front of him –  you can see that picture, they're gleaming."Zoe Saldaña has the distinction for being the first actor to star in four films that grossed over $2 billion at the box office. She’s taken part in some of the largest franchises such as the Avengers, Avatar, Star Trek and the Pirates of the Caribbean. But now more than ever, Saldaña told Vogue that immersing herself in her personal life is the biggest priority."For a long time, I was afraid to stop," she confessed to Ramón Barreto in her cover story . "I feared that if I did, something wouldn't be right. But now, I understand that pausing is also part of the movement."The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

On Monday afternoon, Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson stopped by the Vogue offices for a live conversation about their new film, Song Sung Blue which comes out Christmas Day. The project, inspired by the real-life story of Mike and Claire Sardinia—a Wisconsin couple who form a Neil Diamond tribute band is based on the documentary of the same name, which director Craig Brewer first encountered at a festival and later adapted for the screen. “I realized that everyone is living an extraordinary life,” Jackman shared to Chloe and Vogue’s Deputy editory Taylor when reflecting on why he chose to take the role of Mike.After earning a Golden Globe nomination for her role as Claire, Kate speaks candidly about rediscovering her voice, crediting Sia (who she worked with on the film Music) with inspiring her to sing more freely. She recalls being pushed onto the microphone at her 16th birthday by her mother, Goldie Hawn, to perform “That’s What Friends Are For,” with Quincy Jones in attendance. “He told me to get into the studio,” Hudson remembers.Plus, Hugh and Kate discuss what it’s been like singing at bars across the world, what their tribute band would be (hint: Fleetwood Mac mentioned!), and answer a fun question from none other than Anna Wintour about whether or not they should adapt this film as a theater production.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Vitale was our reader’s 3rd favorite designer of the year, after Blazy at Chanel and Jonathan Anderson at Dior. “Immediately I saw the show and thought, “this is how I want to dress.” said Garcia-Furtado. “As soon as the show ended, I went on The RealReal and bought a pair of Versus jeans within minutes.”Plus, tune in to hear what our editors are looking forward to in 2026.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

Though Bill Nighy’s new podcast, ill-advised, is all about dishing thoughtful advice on the turmoils of others, that doesn’t mean he wants to be mistaken for someone who has it all figured out.This is one of the first things he told Chioma after arriving at the London podcast studio in a suit, a Smedley sweater he designed himself, and Church’s loafers. In honor of his podcast and the skillful advice he gave on British Vogue’s Agony Uncle video, we asked Bill to answer listener questions and break down the secret behind his signature style, which led to the shocking revelation that he has never worn trainers in his life (well — except on one specific occasion). Despite insisting he’s no advice expert, Bill still offers charming, genuinely helpful tips: how to get along with your in-laws over the holidays, a sweet way to propose to your partner, and a recommendation for a family-friendly film that adults and kids will love (hint: he stars in it!).Earlier in the show, Chloe shares details about next year’s Met Gala spring 2026 exhibition theme titled “Costume Art”, which was just announced Monday morning. Chioma recaps the GQ London Men of the Year event, where she wore a chic brown Aaron Esh suit and had a fun text conversation with Cynthia Erivo about her excitement for Wicked: For Good (which she plans to see this weekend!). Plus, a fun a recap of the 16 Arlington show from earlier this week where Lily Allen made her runway debut!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

​​The fashion designer Bella Freud launched Fashion Neurosis a little over a year ago with Rick Owens as her first guest. The show—available in both audio and video formats—immediately set itself apart from other fashion podcasts by the sense of intimacy Freud cultivated in unguarded conversations with her high-profile visitors, Cate Blanchett, David Cronenberg, and Rosalía, among them. She joins Nicole Phelps on this week’s episode of The Run-Through to discuss the origins of the show, including its now-iconic set-up.The designer, who yes, is the great-granddaughter of Sigmund Freud, and the daughter of the painter Lucian Freud, also discusses her first steps in fashion—liberated as a teenager by Vivienne Westwood’s clothes while she worked at the Seditionaries store, and later by Westwood herself as she worked alongside the legendary designer.The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.
