Fashion historian Alexander Vasiliev became a guest of the YouTube channel Montreal LIVE, where he made several, as he claims, "provocative statements". Doberman.media briefly retells his main quotes.
In particular, Vasiliev said in an interview that all men working in the fashion world are not interested in women. And this he calls an axiom. The fashion historian emphasizes that this statement may seem provocative, But it reflects a reality in which men in the fashion industry are often focused on their work and creative processes rather than romantic relationships. Vasiliev also says that style and fashion require a deep understanding and education, which can distract from personal interests.

"Women in the fashion world are usually losers"
"I will also tell you one secret, which is very unpleasant. Women in the fashion world tend to be losers. If it's not Chanel, Lanvin, Elzisis Chiapparelli or Vivienne Westfood, that is, you often have to neglect your family, neglect your children and devote yourself completely to the world of fashion to the last.", Vasilyev is sure. – "And they lose. As a rule, men still win".
Because all men who work in the fashion world are not interested in women. This is an axiom. Don't even argue with me. And, therefore, they will not be so distracted by their personal life, if only because they do not have children. As a result, they are more committed to the fashion world. And that's why success comes to them.
It is not surprising that even in orthodox Russia, all fashion designers are gay, but you can't tell them, so they often have a "beard" in the form of a wife, often elderly, because she no longer needs anything.

"And in other countries, it is open, and therefore they have nothing to hide, in fact, they live with their boyfriends, actively travel with them, change them, if there is such a need. And if they breathe with them, they feel great," - says the fashion historian.
