    Narcissism is a very important skill to have, especially these days. Everything is based on marketing your identity online, the more narcissistic you are the better chance you have to position yourself to be an "influencer". It's sad but it's the place that marketing is at and you might as well embrace it. I would think most designers would already know this and accept it instead of kicking and screaming when a young designer uses it to their advantage.

    It's also sad the amount of misogynist comments here about Walsh using her body to get ahead. It's her body, she gets to use it however she wants. A designer doesn't get famous just for being hot.

    • this thread made me learn she likes to pose for pics, pet camels and has a grumpy dog. ;)renderedred
    • If you think that she got where she is today because of her talent and or grit...you are extremely gullible and naive.utopian
    • The 1-2 times she appeared naked for their S&W promotion doesn't even bother me. But look how much she's posing, making portraits of herself...NBQ00
    • ...smells of extreme narcissism. She even got like 5 IG accounts she's curating. And needed an extra one just for her bikini and travel pics.NBQ00
    • As somebody mentioned before with sarcasm, go check out the andwalsh.com website. There's not enough Pics of her on there.NBQ00
    • She's acting as if she's a fucking big name celebrity or even more legendary than Stefan. And as if she started the new agency from scratch which is a lie.NBQ00
    • I'd say 70%+ of why she's well known isn't because of her actual design work but because a) she got associated with a legendary designer.NBQ00
    • b) because of her viral "40 days of dating" project. The rest is just constant average eye-candy work (not bad, never said it was bad) and her posing her looks.NBQ00
    • I could actually appreciate much of their work if it wasn't for her constantly shoving her face up our asses everywhere. The constant attention-seeking is lame.NBQ00
    • this place (qbn) hasn't shut the fuck up about her for days... so she's doing something rightPonyBoy
    • Attention (and some bad PR) from a site or design forum discussions doesn't equal business dollars tho :)NBQ00
    • scnd dat @ponyrenderedred
    • Third'd, pbben_
    • Sounds like someone is deeply triggered by an agency run by women and minorities.reanimate
    • https://andwalsh.com…
      This bothers some people, a lot.      reanimate
    • Not at all. Just annoyed by BS, don't care if male or female. Again she makes it sound like she started the agency from scratch.NBQ00
    • Why care so much though. Also think you are missing a certain tongue in cheek aspect of what you are calling narcissism. It's not meant to be taken seriously.reanimate
    • True, we could post memes and discuss other things but this was a hot topic/ thread for a few days. Why can't we discuss.NBQ00
    • I mean it seems kind of obvious that the site has a kind of humorous, self-deprecating tone right? Like they are poking fun at themselves.reanimate
    • Narcissism is not a skill. It's a negative character trait. You can market successfully and effectively without narcissism.cannonball1978
    • Her narcissism is a drawback because it upstages anyone getting a sense for if they are a good fit for companies that aren't narcissticcannonball1978
    • It also keeps anyone from getting a sense for how they work with clients or whether the services they offer are of valuecannonball1978
    • Narcissism is a very important skill to have,
      if you're doing things for your self      sted
    • Everything is based on marketing your identity online.
      For a one man show self brand, but not for a team like advertised here.      sted
    • position yourself to be an "influencer".
      The job here is to connect the real "influencer" with the client...      sted
    • it's the place that marketing is at.
      no you are in the wrong place :)      sted
    • this isn't about her body, what idk where u see in these comments seriously...sted
