NY Times Style Section Observes ZOOZOOM Drops Michael Kors
ZOOZOOM has dropped Michael Kors from Fashion Wars. While ZOOZOOM publisher David McIntyre expressed regret that Kors will not be able to fight to retain his crown, he explained the reason behind the decision. "We and our viewers have shown Michael a lot of love, voting him into the top spot twice in succession, but that love has not been returned and our photographers and editors were not granted admission to his show at Bryant Park this past season, So Mr. Kors' grievous snub to our viewers is being returned."
In a discussion of the Designer of the Year the NY Times Style Section notes: 'Not everyone would agree. An online magazine called ZOOZOOM, issued a statement on Monday denouncing Michael Kors, who had won its user-voted fashion wars. Mike Hartley, its chief executive, said Mr. Kors had declined to invite a writer from the site to his show.
'I think if we were a print publication, we would have had access,' Mr. Hartley said.'
