Not for critics it isn't, these days the most derogatory comment a critic will ever make about a House of the Moment would be 'this piece may be unflattering' or 'this piece may only be good in editorials', and these wouldn't be for the likes of fashion's goddess Phoebe Philo.
They save up their abuse for the collections of smaller houses who they can dismiss as college projects.

A small label is privileged if a critic condescends to attend their show.
A critic is privileged if a big house condescends to invite them.
Why wouldn't they write well about them?

The biggest label whores in the world are the fashion critics.
