Designer Oscar de la Renta has responded to the New York Times' fashion critic Cathy Horyn due to the review on his New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2013 show. "Mr. de la Renta is far more a hot dog than an éminence grise of American fashion", Horyn wrote in the Times on Wednesday. That was enough for de la Renta to take out a one-page ad in Women's Wear Daily (WWD). It is not the first time that Horyn has to deal with a situation like this. She said: "Oscar clearly misunderstood". And also: "I meant to say he's a cool guy who's showing off his tricks". What do you think about it?
El diseñador, Oscar de la Renta, escribió en la carta abierta: "Respeto y acepto la crítica porque de muchas maneras nos ayuda a progresar. Intento hacer mi trabajo cada vez mejor. Lo que no acepto es que la crítica sea personal. Si tienes el derecho de llamarme 'hot dog', ¿por qué yo no tengo el derecho de llamarte hamburguesa pasada de tres días? Mi consejo es que te abstengas de la crítica personal. Los profesionales critican la ropa, no la gente".In de la Renta's open letter to Horyn, the designer wrote: "I respect and accept criticism because in many ways it does help us develop; I try to make my work better each time. What I do not accept is when criticism is personal. If you have the right to call me a hot dog why do I not have the right to call you a stale 3-day old hamburger? My advice to you is to abstain from personal criticism. Professionals criticize the clothes, not the people".
