Hi! Once Milan Fashion Week Spring/Summer 17 had come to an ending, a few key members from Vogue editorial team gathered round to write down a few words to highlight the week's events.

The discussion started off as review of the Italian's fashion capital's biggest collections and trends, quickly turned into Mean Girls canteen banter, the editors began digging their well-manicured claws into bloggers and their practice of wearing "paid-for" outfits at fashion shows.
The editors of Vogue managed to call these bloggers everything from "sad", "embarrassing" and "pathetic" and they should "find another business" (Meow!). Susie Lau (aka @Susiebubble) and Bryan Yambao (aka @Bryanboy), two of the industry's most popular bloggers, responded to the Vogue editors with a bunch of tweets on popular app Twitter.
I think that Vogue's patronising and malicious remarks lead many readers and fans to criticise their outdated views on how the fashion industry actually works now. Bloggers use their exposure by lending exposure to brands in exchange for money. Not to mention this whole "you can't sit with us" attitude in fashion is pretty petty. Get with the picture Vogue!
