Dari kiri: Bryanboy dan Susie Bubble

 Baru-baru ini beberapa editor Vogue menghentam bloggers dan influencers yang hadir ke Milan Fashion Week (MFW). Mereka berpendapat bahawa golongan bloggers dan influencers “merosakkan” imej Minggu Fesyen melalui gaya jalanan, kegilaan untuk memuat naik perkembangan terkini di laman sosial selain dibayar untuk menggayakan baju dari jenama tertentu.

Editor-editor Vogue berpendapat mereka tidak meraikan semangat fesyen yang sebenar dan hanya mengutamakan tentang jumlah ‘like’ di laman sosial. Sarah Mower, pengkritik utama Vogue.com turut menggelar pelakuan bloggers dan influencers ini sebagai ‘menyedihkan’.

Walaubagaimanapun, OG (original gangsters) bloggers Susie Bubble dan Bryanboy bersuara dengan melawan kritikan editor-editor Vogue menerusi Twitter dan Instagram.  

Firstly let's not pretend that editors and stylists are not beholden to brands in one way or another, getting salaries at publications…

… that are stuffed full of credits that are tied to paid advertising but not explicitly stated as such.

— susiebubble (@susiebubble) September 26, 2016

Secondly, bloggers who wear paid-for outfits or borrowed clothes are merely doing the more overt equivalent of that editorial-credit system.

It's just that bloggers sadly don't have prestigious titles/publications to hide behind and represent themselves solely.

And I wonder why that is? Those higher echelons of magazine title positions are hard to reach and not accessible to everyone.

So it basically boils down to the same criticism I heard eight years ago. The fashion establishment don't want their circles enlarged…

… and for the ivory tower to remain forever that. Towering and impenetrable.

“It’s a schizophrenic moment, and that just can’t be good. (Note to bloggers who change head-to-toe, paid-to-wear outfits every hour: Please stop. Find another business. You are heralding the death of style).”

 Ironi kritikan terhadap bloggers dan influencers adalah Vogue sendiri mempunyai ruangan gaya jalanan dalam majalah dan laman web mereka yang digemari pembaca.   https://www.instagram.com/p/BK3EBxpDCvt/?taken-by=bryanboycom   Oleh: Lylatul Qadrina
