Vanessa Friedman | Polimoda Duets #12

Curated by Polimoda, the newest episode of Polimoda Duets, a series of documentary interview videos involving some of the most outstanding cultural figures of our time, features The New York Times Fashion Director and Chief Fashion Critic Vanessa Friedman. During this candid conversation with the marvelous Mimma Viglezio, Vanessa Friedman talks about her serendipitous journey into the fashion world, sharing stories from her early career days, the good and the bad of the industry and her current role at The New York Times. "I think magazines have a different role than newspapers and it’s not really a critical role. Fashion magazines are there to be cheerleaders for the industry, they’re not formal marketing vehicles but they’re there to support fashion and to encourage readers who love fashion to love it as much or more. I think newspapers are there to provide information and be a filter of all the white noise that goes on in the world and to let readers know what they need to know that day to effectily go about their lives and those are different. Therefore, writing for different platforms requires different ways of thinking." #VanessaFriedman #PolimodaDuets Read the full article here: https://www.polimoda.com/polimoda-duets-vanessa-friedman Credits: Idea: Danilo Venturi Interview: Mimma Viglezio ========================= Follow us on: Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Polimoda Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/polimodafir...
