the 5 Most Hated People in Fashion!

The fashion world isn’t exactly known for playing nice. Industry insiders are constantly the source of gossip, whether it be a feud, snobbery or your run-of-the-mill controversy. In no particular order, we’ve rounded up who by many accounts seem to be the most disliked — dare we say hated? — people in fashion:

1. Anna Wintour The Vogue editor-in-chief’s intimidating antics have been the source of gossip since she arrived at the mag in 1983. Then, of course, there was that little novel-turned-film she inspired, “The Devil Wears Prada.” Need we say more?!
2.Victoria Beckham Posh’s propensity for pouting is just one reason the fashion designer has gotten a cold reputation. Jealousy aside (ahem, David Beckham), Victoria sent off the snob alarms when she kept her distance from fellow Spice Girls at the opening of their musical last year. And hey, even she admits that she can seem a bit icy. “People think I’m a moody bitch,” she told Elle.

3. Olivia Palermo The New York socialite had her first taste of backlash in 2007 when a “Gossip Girl”-style site posted a letter she had allegedly written asking the catty girls on her social scene “for acceptance, privacy and forgiveness.” A lawsuit ensued (Olivia vehemently denied writing the letter) and we eventually forgot about her — until she was cast as the antagonist on the MTV reality show “The City", the next year. Next time, Olivia, it might be wise to be a little nicer to Whitney Port if you want to boost your public image.

4.Miranda Kerr OK, so we know this seems like a curveball, but the model has sparked her fair share of controversy. Just this week, it was rumored that her “diva antics” cost her a renewed contract with Victoria’s Secret (she says she simply didn’t have enough time to commit to the brand, though). Not to mention, Miranda’s comments about epidurals and “drugged-up” babies after the natural birth of her son didn’t make people too happy either. On the other hand, the rep might be entirely blown out of proportion (we’ve met the model ourselves and can attest to her good nature).
5. John Galliano Arguably the most polarizing figure in the fashion industry, this designer made headlines in 2011 when he was filmed making an anti-semitic tirade in Paris. The incident led to his dismissal from his namesake label and from his position at Christian Dior. Several years ago, Oscar de la Renta invited Galliano into his studio after he died. The jury’s still out on if he’ll ever be able to fix his disgraced image.
