Love Is Blind... Or Is It?

We survived Milan Fashion Week and, more importantly, the coronavirus, which had everyone scrambling to leave the country as we watched Love is Blind from a hotel room (please welcome Jessica as AWD’s newest mascot). Off the back of our busy week - and a few major travel mishaps - we discuss imposter syndrome, being overly critical of oneself and wearing op-shop cardigans with confidence. Harvey Weinstein was found guilty of two counts of predatory sexual assault: why Rose McGowan was one of the first people on our minds and whether the actress’ criticism of Natalie Portman’s Oscars gown was valid. Plus, another word to add to the AWD dictionary: ‘Jareh’, an Assyrian word to describe someone who you feel sorry for because they’re a bit embarrassing. Eg. “Jarrod from The Bachelor is so jareh” or "Izzy talking about her cardigan is so jareh."
