This past issue Vogue made a mistake in publishing a highly controversial article, Look Chic, Go Crazy: Here’s What to Wear to Burning Man, (2015) [1], by Liana Satenstein, who is currently an assistant professor of tactical fashion at the United States Military Academy. As the incoming Editorial Board, we want to address concerns regarding Ms Satenstein’s contention that some burners on the playa could be seen wearing such cliched and out-dated hippie clothing. The substance of Ms. Satenstein’s article cannot fairly be considered apart from the egregious breach of professional decorum that it exhibits. We cannot “unpublish” it, of course, but we can and do acknowledge that the article was not presentable for publication when we published it, and that we therefore repudiate it with sincere apologies to our readers.
We now call upon you, our beloved and on fleek readers to set the record straight:
Nothing says you’ve invested in the Playa Lifestyle like an impossible to walk-in costume. And nothing says “I fully grok desert conditions” like aquatic fantasy creatures!
