VON FURSTENBERG APOLOGISES FOR TEEN SLIP-UP
Fashion mogul DIANE VON FURSTENBERG has publicly apologised for appearing to put a 15 year old on the New York Fashion Week catwalk.
Ironically, as the president of the Council of Fashion Designers of America, von Furstenberg helped draft new recommendations aimed at keeping girls under the age of 16 off the runway.
She insists she was not responsible for the slip-up, but she is taking the blame.
A statement from the fashionista reads, "It is to my horror that I discovered last Friday that in spite of me repeating to my production and casting people, one girl slipped through the cracks. I was horrified and terribly embarrassed… I am trying to be a good leader and set an example… so please accept my apology."
