Dahlia is joined by Carla Buzasi, CEO of WGSN to discuss what the word 'trends' mean, why certain products or concepts gain interest and popularity and how we stay unique in a world of content that is ever increasingly dictated to us through algorithms.

Carla shares her view on the trends that are sticking, explaining trend is more about societal shifts than about fads that come and go. The conversation looks into why we love to follow trends and how to retain our own taste, judgement and curiosity in today's world.

As CEO of WGSN, the world’s leading trend forecasting company, Carla leads a global team of specialists, delivering insight, data analysis and consultancy services, predicting the future for the world’s most successful brands.

Since being acquired by Apax Partners in 2024, WGSN has expanded its offering into new industries and sectors, including the acquisition of global bev/alc data business IWSR.

When not advising business leaders on future trends, she is also a commentator for TV and radio shows, a regular keynote speaker at events, including SXSW, Cannes Lions and Web Summit, and the podcast host of Lives of Tomorrow.

Dahlia is joined by Samantha Harman journalist, author and stylist to discuss why we all deserve to 'get dressed' in a way that represents how we want to be seen.
