What's Tom Ford's name doing on that list?? I don't know, at least with the newspapers it gave a scope of the charges and appears to have been well researched. I'm not sure what to make of a list like this....
Agree with you about the list and other publishers at least doing their research. The intention behind this is good, but it's not at all reliable. Basically anyone can send a DM with a name and some made up story and the name will end up on the list. Create a different account and submit the same name multiple times and they will add an asterik next to the name, indicating multiple allegations. I think the account holder will find themselves in some serious legal hot water.
Regarding Tom Ford, well, there have been stories floating around for some time. Not necessarily abusive, but definitely a very horny man haha.
The thing about these accusations is that it's only about naming people. With naming people, they also have to mention which kind of behaviour they are pointing out.
If Jeremy Scott and Tom Ford are mentionned, it's a big deal but their behavior needs to be adressed. Was just an uncomfortable situation? A comment? Or acts à la Bruce Weber and Testino.
I don't like this kind of list because everything and everybody are mixed in the whole thing without really knowing what's the deal.
Someone should publish stories from the other angles of the business, so the whole structure and its patterns become visible. There's so much more. You would logically expect well-meaning adult people that work on a manager-like level, to protect the well-being of the people they surround themselves with. And yet, most either don't realize the power they hold, or they seek catharsis by perpetuating the abuse that happened to them before. It's so childish. It's time for adults to be held accountable for this vile behavior.That’s incredible news!! Thanks for posting. Now we just need a list for workplace abuse by stylists and editors etc. Assistants shouldn’t be spared either because of the way some treat interns. Having gone through that kind of thing themselves, you’d think they’d have some compassion. I get that they’re stressed, but so is everyone, including the subordinates they yell at.
Is that the same with Templer? No, i don't think he took advantage of someone.
We have to get rid of the predators/abusers and then fix some things on how people are working. Modeling is a job when no matter what people are experiencing an «*invasion*» in their personal space. We have to make sure that those young people are aware of what they are getting into but also comfortable in their body and mind before doing things.
Those are still teenagers that are growing up, experiencing puberty and at the same time are out in this world in the most unpersonal way. They are judged on their body and are at the same time being celebrated because of that (being a model is not negative in anyone’s eye) and sometimes have to experience the low point of that (photoshop alter their body that is already consider perfect and they are being criticized for being too skinny).
We have to get to those discussions gradually.
there was already some drama as a photographer was put on his list by his ex girlfriend (pretty big model) as revenge. His name was removed
