Before becoming a big international marketing exec at New Balance, LEE STUART was the very first brand director at streetwear juggernaut Patta. 

A true curatorial-savant and connector, Lee Stuart's work lives at the intersection of style, music and purpose-first storytelling. Whether he's building legacy-shaping brand campaigns, curating gallery shows, or launching for-us-by-us initiatives - everything Lee touches is grounded in intention. 

Lee's story serves as an important reminder that viable and fulfilling career paths can start from one's own story, that art and identity are scalable, and that they can be used in beautiful, impactful ways.

Join Lee and Dominique Nzeyimana as they dive deep into Lee's fascinating journey, beginning with his upbringing as the youngest of ten in a Curaçaoan Dutch family. Lee's teenage years were infused with creativity and strong influences from hip-hop culture, which shaped his unique perspective on style and self-expression.

Lee discusses the road that led to his tenure at the legendary streetwear brand Patta, where he was able to put his deep love for the company and its mission to work. We discuss some of his contributions, including community-centred campaigns and culturally relevant marketing initiatives that elevated the brand's voice in an often unforgiving landscape. Lee's passion for purpose-led storytelling comes through as he recounts pivotal projects that highlighted Patta's true core as a black-owned brand and a platform for change, pushing against industry norms.

Transitioning into his current role at New Balance, Lee reveals how he applies lessons learned throughout his career and the importance of purposeful brand storytelling. He has shifted the focus of New Balance's lifestyle campaigns to reflect a richer cultural narrative that truly resonates. 

Throughout the conversation, Lee maintains a vulnerable yet powerful stance, revealing some of the challenges he faced while navigating personal loss and the evolving demands of his professional life.

British fashion designer Martine Rose has reshaped menswear and brought her village with her.

A true 'designer's designer', she is the force behind the self-titled label proudly worn by Rihanna, Kendrick Lamar, Neneh Cherry, Timothée Chalamet and A$AP Rocky, to name but a few.

Her subcultural silhouettes have influenced everyone from Demna – who called her in during his early Balenciaga years – to mastodons like Nike and Supreme.

On this very special episode of The Most, Martine welcomes Dominique into her London studio for a rare, walls-down conversation spanning 20-plus years of creating, honouring and shifting culture. From her polychrome childhood and early nightlife tales to creative breakthroughs, business chin-falls and industry recognition.

She speaks about growing up in a multi-generational home where proud Black Panther politics, music and an embrace of eccentricity planted the roots of the designer she'd become.

And yes, she also answers *that* creative director question.

From trailblazing at Balenciaga Men's and steering Nike into new lanes to the enduring power of her team and cheeky, humorous resilience – this is a portrait of a designer whose intuition and refusal to conform have built a legacy like no other.

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 (!).

From a young age, fashion designer, artist and true club kid Judassime knew that surviving environments that weren't made for them would have to become one of their core skills. 

Discussing the path from the first experiments with makeup to launching their debut collection, Judassime takes us inside their evolution—turning trauma into art and fashion school heartbreak into digital show strategies.

With a visceral, otherworldly vision, they built their name from hand-crafting club couture for the Belgian underground to dressing high-profile names like Katy Perry and drag superstar Aquaria.

Judassime also talks about the jacket that went club-viral, their creative family of Mothers and mentors, the work behind outfitting celebrities, and why they refuse to play the free exposure game.

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.

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 here.
