That is so sad. I am not a big fan of Vogue magazine anyway and this picture just makes me sick. We should be helping these people not taking pictures of them with things they can only dream of having.

Can’t believe they ever thought this was a good idea. What on earth were they thinking?!

Well said Alline

I am a big lover of fashion and hate how publications like this, gives it such a bad name.

For what its worth, I soooo hope they were at least compensated. Well. But I guess its unrealistic to expect them to be paid the same as a the average models featured in that same magazine is paid.

It’s very sad to see something like this happen. Thought It’s good to see someone like yourself call them on it

Amaanda, Thanks so much for this post, for bringing it to our attention and for your clear, take-no-prisoners writing. I’m glad that you’re calling Vogue on this – it’s irresponsible, flippant and just plain mean-spirited. Fashion does not have to be snarky to be “cool.”

Wow. That is intense. The last cries of a dying empire… swathing the world’s babes in designer schwag is such a stark image. The emptiness of the ‘brand’ reverberates.
