Recently the members of the CFDA met to discuss options for the fashion industry to overcome the recession. A lot people suggested plenty of ideas from smaller production quantities to quicker fashion week/retail turn-around. But listen to what Ms. Anna had to say according to Jezebel.com...
"But Anna Wintour's proposed solution really takes the cake. The Vogue editor stood up to offer, "Could someone lead a committee that would make ground rules for retailers of when the discounting starts, and then all the retailers can agree to it?" Von Furstenberg interjected that that was illegal — in fact, if the big department stores had any such agreement, it would amount to price-fixing and collusion, an anti-trust lawsuit in the making. "Is that something we can change?" asked Wintour. "We have friends in the White House now!"
Spoiled.
