Episode Description from the Publisher

Would we wear the new Meta smart glasses? Is Frank Gehry's Abu Dhabi opera house actually pretty good? And why did Paris Fashion Week feel like the last days of the Roman Empire?   In this episode, Dezeen design editor Jennifer Hahn and architecture reporter Amy Peacock discuss Meta's collaboration with Kylie Jenner on its first designed-in-house smart glasses.   Then, they consider the late Frank Gehry's performing arts venue on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi, which has drawn some unflattering comparisons from Dezeen commenters having just begun construction.   Lastly, they reflect on the noteworthy moments from a Paris Fashion Week Menswear that took place as France sweltered in a deadly heatwave.   Dezeen Weekly artwork is by Simon Volt. Editing is by Miguel Santa Clara.
