"This was an opportunity for the industry ... to help these people and make them understand that there is indeed a future for young creative talent and that they aren't going to have to close up shop," said Wintour, who noted, said she believes the Covid-19 crisis will alter how people approach fashion in the future, with an eye toward sustainability and "the value of what they're buying, whatever the price point.

"And I think it's an opportunity for everybody to slow down, produce less, and really make the world over fall in love with the creativity and passion of fashion," Wintour said. "And maybe have a little bit less of an emphasis on things moving so quickly and an emphasis always on what's new."

Unfortunately, for fashion industry when people had a choice between staying alive and looking phat, they chose the former!

I think the natural look will emerge. So many celebrity people were looking natural and both men and women realized everybody has flaws. Accept them! I think that will be true for fashion! I have not had a shirt and tie on in three months.

Who wants to overspend on useless cheap junk that “makes you feel rich on Instagram” when most of it is made by cheap migrant labor in foreign countries.
