Didn't know that Donna, I don't keep abreast of what designers are up to (except the awful Beckhams who cant get enough publicity), but I take your point, and a lot of gay men who are in the fashion industry can be cruel and don't hold back (hence my comment on another Thread about Simon Wilson being upfront in telling Julia the truth about her looks). I've never watched Dancing on Ice, but I believe one of the judges on that was booted off for his abusive comments, which emphasises my point.
I'm not tarring all gays with the same brush, as most I find hysterically funny and caring, but a lot of them can be more bitchy and cutting than a lot of women !
