EH: Did you notice any big viral moments that the internet’s blowing up about?
AL: Yeah, I loved that Chloë moment at Proenza—she’s one of my style icons, so that was so exciting to see. But I think one thing that stands out in my mind is this viral image that was shared all across Twitter and TikTok. And I’m sure you know what I’m talking about, but it’s this image of Anna Wintour sitting in the second row in a completely empty venue where the Collina Strada show is held. And people, I think, just lost their minds.
First of all, when I saw that photo, I just brushed it off because I was like, “Oh, that’s funny—Photoshop. I don’t know why somebody would make that.” It actually wasn’t until I went to a show the next morning, and a few of us were talking about it as we walked out. And I realized, no, that was literally an image of Anna Wintour sitting by herself in the back of an empty Collina Strada show. But I think the reason the internet lost its mind was because people don’t really understand and get to see often what it’s actually like to go to these shows and what the environment is like and why maybe she was sitting there. Like, what does that mean? … We thought about it more, and we realized the theory is that we think it made more sense for her to be seated in this back corner. Obviously, she’s always like front-row everything. But she was sitting in his back corner, and it was right next to the elevator. And as we know, [Wintour] likes to be first in, first out. So I believe that the show had ended, and everybody had cleared out, and she was waiting so that she could make her solo exit and just run to the elevator and, you know, go to the next show.
