The high fashion industry has always been a corrupt garbage fire.
Go right now to some normal store's website and check out the clothing section. You are going to see normal looking people smiling. Why shouldn't they be smiling? They have a nice sweater on.
High fashion it is all about taking these very unusual looking people, having them drain their face of touch of humanity, selling clothing that fits no one and costs thousands of dollars. And it is all performative. A game the super rich and their lackies are playing against other super rich and their lackies. If you had two investments available to you today the first is some "tech" company with an idea for a social media site and the other is a fashion maker the tech company (with it's 5% chance of success) has a higher chance of success.
Lay down with dogs, get up with flies. This whitewashing is disgusting but not shocking especially given the decades of photo editing these shitstains have done.
Yes, I have no sympathy for the people who subject themselves to this abuse.
