MIISTA / Laura Villasenin
Laura Villasenin is the founder and creative director of footwear and ready-to-wear label MIISTA. In this special episode, recorded at the MIISTA factory in Galicia, Spain, Laura sits down with Dominique for an extensive talk about the brand’s come-up and vision. She shares the quite revolutionary approach that challenges industry stereotypes and drives her desire to own all stages of the MIISTA supply chain. Growing up along Northern Spain's rugged Atlantic coast, Laura's first visit to London opened up a universe that would eventually lead to launching MIISTA in 2010 after studying footwear design at Cordwainers, now part of the London School of Fashion. What started with the release of bold, sculptural designs that merge craft and radical aesthetics has expanded into a comprehensive brand with celebrity followers including Madonna, Charli XCX, and Bella Hadid. However, MIISTA's most remarkable achievement to date came more recently when Laura invested big into opening their clothing factory in Galicia — a decision that wasn't just about production control but about revitalising an entire region's craftsmanship tradition. Laura also discusses why it's essential that she remains in London a couple of days a week and generously opens up about the pros and cons of having investors. She also gets into that surreal moment when Madonna slid in MIISTA's DMs (!). Follow MIISTA . Shop MIISTA online . Follow The Most: on . on .

LUC VAN ACKER

LUC VAN ACKER
Legendary artist and pioneering music producer Luc Van Acker might have made music history, he doesn't do nostalgia. With a career spanning over four decades, he has instinctively moved between solo projects; bands like Revolting Cocks, Ministry, Front 242, Arbeid Adelt! & many more and offered up cult collabs and genre-bending productions. His fearlessly fun, self-proclaimed 'insane', and experimental M.O. has navigated industry politics and backroom machinations for the longest time, yet he remains ahead of the wave, forever optimistically searching for new sounds. On this episode, Luc and Dominique retrace his journey—from self-producing his first solo record in his bedroom to in-person straight-talk with William S. Burroughs and birthing industrial music together with Richard 23, Al Jourgensen and Wax Trax! Records. He shares how experimenting with the first samplers put Belgian producers on the global map and why names like Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails and Slipknot's Joey Jordison cite him as an inspiration. Luc also tells stories of how he got through his darkest days and what led him to his current 'Twin Peaks' -ish happy place. But not before he divulges how he roped himself into his first gig with Shriekback, what 80's Chicago was like and, of course, the inception of Revolting Cocks.

FARIDA SEDOC
After giving Dominique a private tour of 'Non-Profit At All Cost', the exhibition she curated at NEST, The Hague, visual artist, curator, fashion & print designer and writer Farida Sedoc takes some time out to look back on her life and practice so far. From a difficult couple of years at Fashion University over a devastating park brawl that acted as the fire-starter for her multi-layered cult-label ‘HOSSELAER’ to showing work at some of the best museums in The Netherlands & beyond, Farida Sedoc knows what it means to dig deep and persevere. Her artistic work, interventions and curatorship are crucial in challenging the collective consciousness by centring the often unseen or avoided. With forever ties to big city life, her Surinamese heritage and Hip-Hop culture, her work explores, pushes back & reflects on western dogmas and the influence of money, identity, globalism and politics. The exhibition ‘Non-Profit At All Cost’ is on until November 6 2022 at NEST The Hague. Info & tickets . More on Farida Sedoc Follow Farida Sedoc Follow here The Most Merch is !
