Designer on blogging


“It’s a bit mad, isn’t it? It feels like it’s happened all of a sudden and at some shows this season the front row was just all bloggers. I think it will die down though, and people know what they are doing. No one who wants to read a serious review of a show is going to look at what a 14-year-old thinks. But it has become more critical; people can say what they want about anyone on a blog without consequences and that’s quite scary. There are real repercussions for a designer if a photo of something is leaked by a blog; it can be copied in a fortnight and that can really harm a business. You have to be much more careful now.” —Christopher Kane weighs in on blogging.

Bloggers are like the editors. These days people go to blogs for inspirational pictures, quick news in fashion and of course, to see what other fashion obsessed think about well... Fashion. This year at the D&G show, bloggers were invited to stay front row with laptops and tweet or post on their blogs their opinions and quick news about who was there, who wore what.
I think this may be a new fashion revolution.
Btw, how many times can I write fashion in a post? As many times as I like because this is my blog.

  1. That's so true! Fashion bloggers are the most powerful and popular bloggers. As a blogger myself,(http://leschatserrants.wordpress.com) i can't help but enjoy the liberty which is given to write anything about anybody.
    By the way, you're in TFS, aren't you? I follow the thread about Daul Kim's death because i used to be an huge fan of her. Do you know how can i post a message on it?
