Solutions

1:D - Unlikely! He ends his rant on the editorial handover from Shulman by saying: “I don’t recall Zadie Smith or Salman Rushdie writing for her at British Vogue as they would for me, but there you go." Brutal., 2:C - Given the collection was largely silk and largely white, it had to be a whole fruit. Other options were a piece of nougat and green tea., 3:D - For a working model, Rajatkowski walks in surprisingly few fashion shows., 4:A - Though all materials were up for grab, the ever-entrepreneurial actor/model made the look from leaves she had picked up in New York and coated in resin, which she then turned into a co-ord., 5:A - “This Telfar bag imported,” she sings. “Birkins? Them shit’s in storage.” Given a Birkin’s resale value is upwards of £5,000, jolly sensible too., 6:D - The Kardashians did in fact launch Khroma Beauty – of course they did – in 2012, but it quickly closed after being hit with a catalogue of lawsuits for copyright infringement., 7:A - Proof that one man’s pest is another man’s treasure, the resin clutch retails for $890 and was carried by Sarah Jessica Parker on the Just Like That set., 8:C - If that wasn’t enough, the patent leather heels also feature a 3.1-inch platform at the front. Best of luck wearing those, gals!, 9:A - Thought this casting was starry? In 2012, Willem Dafoe, Gary Oldman, Tim Roth, Jamie Bell and Adrien Brody walked for Prada. Designer Miuccia Prada described it as “a parody of man power”., 10:C - Fetterman regularly comments on his own appearance, saying he “does not look like a typical politician”. The £900 Margiela boots though? Not a peep. Still, they’re better than Dr Oz’s Gucci loafers.

Scores

1. 10 and above.

   Brilliant. I bet you can even pronounce Margiela.

2. 7 and above.

   Well well – someone knows their Shulmans from their Enninfuls from their Foxes. Decent stuff.

3. 0 and above.

   Come on. We all like to think we’re above the diet-baiting, world-burning, cost-of-living-rejecting industry that is high fashion, but have you literally been living naked under a rock this past year? Also: ew.

4. 4 and above.

   So-so. Presumably you at least own some clothes, even if you don’t profess to know why or where they’re from.
