Beth+Ditto-7533.html
She’s been hard to escape during Paris Fashion Week, attending shows by Karl Lagerfeld, Loewe, Jeremy Scott, Chanel and Stella McCartney and sitting on their front rows no less.
In fact, we’d even go as far as to say she has been the ‘face’ of fashion week, clocking up more appearances than any other aspiring fashionista.
Yes, Beth Ditto has made it. Well, she’s made it onto the fashion stage at any rate, but whether or not she’s been accepted is another matter.
Despite posing with karl Lagerfeld and Kate Moss, apparently Karl was not amused with Beth and made some fat jibes, while Vogue editor Anna Wintour has also apparently been unimpressed with her antics.
Oh dear, you’re pretty much screwed if the power twosome don’t approve of you. However, it’s pretty obvious that the fashion world is changing and perhaps Wintour’s archaic opinions are no longer relevant.
Beth’s naked debut on the cover of Love magazine sold all 65,000 copies in a week, and her range for Evans is one of the most eagerly anticipated collections of the year.
Her appearance at PFW did raise a few eyebrows, but considering she was headlining for Fendi at the end of the week, it really shouldn’t of mattered why she was attending other shows.
Fendi clearly saw her potential, so maybe the rest of the doubters should get down off their high horses and accept maybe Beth is the new face of Fashion…
