i don't think the issue is time. i think the issue is that some newspaper critics -- not just in fashion -- have made up their minds before they even sit down to a show. perhaps they have three quarters of their review written before they even see it and just plug in a couple of details from the actual show to make it real....who knows? however, i think many newspaper critics have lost credibility because they frequently pan things that are cultural sensations.
i won't even read a newspaper review of a film before i go see it. ditto a book from my favorite authors.
