2009 was without question the year of the fashion blog, with many of the most followed bloggers gaining front row seats at some of the most prestigious fashion shows. What’s next in store? Suzy Menkes and a pocketful of leading fashion bloggers tell us what they think in this very insightful video.
Christoper Kane 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.”
