Overtime ( Continue reading...

Because of her privileged spot within the London fashion district and her grasp of how to connect to a mass audience (instead of relying on the ‘old’ trickle-down effect), her creation – that started out as simple street fashion – turned out to be an international fasion style.

It is easy to imagine situations in which appearance affects a candidate’s hiring prospects in ways that are natural but unethical and discriminatory. The obvious example is in a hiring situation in which an under-qualified but better-looking person is hired over a less-attractive but well-qualified candidate. Continue reading...
