    Welcome back beloveds!

Today's featured guest is a true self-starter, from reselling shoes in middle school to starting his own management agency. Grant Solis talks to us about how he accrued his impressive Instagram following, the current state of fashion trends, why Paris has a better fashion week than New York, and much more.
