Amanda Seales: What I Wore When I First Got On Stage As a Comic

This week Amanda showcases her signature honesty to talk with Perrie about what she wore when she first started performing onstage, Rolex watches, fast fashion, the shifting landscape for women in comedy, and the concept of real friends in today’s debatably authentic Instagram age.   For more on this episode, visit glamour.com/whatiworewhen.   Follow @amandaseales on Instagram and Twitter.

Can an outfit change your life? For many of us, the answer is a resounding yes. Welcome to What I Wore When, a weekly podcast hosted by Glamour digital director Perrie Samotin. Every Monday, Perrie sits down with actors, writers, musicians, reality stars, and other influential women to discuss what they wore during a pivotal moment in their life—and why it mattered. It’s not just about fashion—it's also about the seemingly small choices we make every day and how they affect us more than we realize.
