    Christian Louboutin

    In the mid-1970s, while touring a museum in his hometown of Paris, Christian Louboutin came across a sign that would alter the course of his entire life. Indicating that stiletto heels were banned on the premises, it depicted a pair of the shoes with a red “no” symbol over them. For Louboutin, the image sparked a fascination with shoe design that led to him sketching original prototypes as a young teenager, working in major fashion houses by 20, and opening his own salon in 1991. It wasn’t long after starting his shop that his classic red-soled stilettos were born—and since then, Louboutin’s…

    Paul Feig

    Whether he’s directing a movie, cutting in the editing room, or grabbing a bite to eat, Paul Feig wears a suit. In his view, dressing well both helps him focus and create strong first impressions. But Feig's elegance is also a reflection of his highly detail-oriented nature. Behind the camera, Feig’s acute perception and keen eye for comedy—his favorite genre—has led to hits like Bridesmaids and A Simple Favor (which has a sequel on the way), and the opportunity to direct television shows like The Office, Mad Men, and Freaks and Geeks, which he created. On this week’s episode of Table for…

    Colin Jost

    Growing up in Staten Island, Colin Jost hung around many of his mother’s colleagues at the New York City Fire Department. He quickly gained an appreciation for the power of laughter, even in grave circumstances. By middle school, Jost was doing David Letterman impressions for classmates, and less than a decade later, while enrolled at Harvard, he rose to the top of the masthead of the school's humor magazine, the Lampoon.
