This is a discussion forum/ site. Why aren't we allowed to give our opinion? Do we all have to be ass kissers?
No I'm not bitter, nor jealous nor a woman hater. I actually love to see women be successful and even more so than men in any industry.
But usually I don't give a fuck about genders. It's about the person.
What bothers me about Jessica Walsh is not only her misleading claims that she founded the agency all by herself (she inherited it mostly via a legendary designer that she got associated with and where all her fame started from) but also that she uses her looks and very self-absorbed, narcissistic self-promo. If she's successful with it so be it. But we can still criticise her antics.
There are far more talented women out there that rarely get talked about but the loudest people get the spotlight.
- So can you start talking about those talented women who deserves spot light and stop giving &W spot light?pango
- fan of Yah Leng Yu and her studio:
http://foreignpolicy…dyspl - One or two posts seems like fair criticism. Several pages of comments, including repeatedly about her looks does come off as a bit obsessive, un4chanately.yuekit
- Also when I look at their site it comes across as heavily ironic. Like she is poking fun at how narcissistic society is. Did you miss that part?yuekit
- Where do you get that "ironic" impression? And I didn't want to post anymore but only because of fate and accusations of hating women.NBQ00
- bahaha #un4chanatelyshellie
- The whole site comes across as incredibly tongue in cheek. I mean they are selling their trash for $200 lol. Even the one everyone here criticized whereyuekit
- she is standing in front of a ridiculous stock image-looking 3D render background seems more like a parody than anything else.yuekit
- I'm not saying it's the greatest thing in the world, but if you really completely missed that aspect of it maybe you shouldn't be the one criticizing :)yuekit
- What does occasional jokes and fun work examples have to do with her constantly using her persona and looks for self-promo?NBQ00
- You asked where is the irony -- it seems kind of obvious there is a strong element of irony and self-parody in the entire brand and site.yuekit
- Including the constant use of her own image. That doesn't make it beyond criticism, but I find it weird that this needs to be pointed out to people who work inyuekit

- Careful, it takes talent to get and stay in the "spotlight." That in itself is a highly competitive skill. Good technique but being a recluse is not all talent.BustySaintClaire
