Angry Reaction from Wintour and her minions "clackers" !

Rating: Null/10 (24 November 2006)

I would call this the first real fashion movie ever as all other attempts (Altman & co) have been totally amateurish in describing this world. Lauren Weinsberger (the author of the Devil Wears Prada) having worked/survived at US Vogue for one year has provided a quite accurate look of madness of the fashion world and the even crazier world of high end fashion magazines.
The movie will make any fashionista laugh and will introduce non experts to some lesser known yet interesting aspects of this world (how a magazine is created and the many conflict of interests behind it....one word "freebies").
No wonder Vogue's editor in chief Anna Wintour's bitter reaction clearly showed in the fact that Vogue did not review the movie. And once Mrs.Wintour found out Miranda's office in the movie looked almost exactly like hers (www.oficinadeestilo.com.br/blog/wp-content/office.jpg) she totally redid it. What's pathetic is that her former minion Kate Betts or "clacker" as they call Vogue gals in the movie has used the pages of once respectable NY Times to trash the movie and Weinsberger while ultimately sounding pathetic in a blatant case of conflict of interest( Article "Anna Dearest"). Betts seems to miss the time when she was herself a "clacker " at Vogue magazine and probably regrets leaving Wintour all of a sudden in the worst career move ever, having later been fired from her editor post at Harper's Bazaar and now starting from scratch at NY Times.
