Fashion Industry Gives Brüno Their Stamp of Approval

With just over 12 hours to go before one Lagerfeld-loving, fashion show-crashing, sequined short-wearing Austrain journalist takes over your local cineplex, WWD lets us know that no one in the fashion biz has a beef with Brüno.  In fact, it’s just the opposite.  Diane von Furstenberg can’t wait to see the film and thinks he’s a great comedian.  Marie Claire’s UK editor Trish Halpin (who put Brüno and model Alessandra Ambrosio on the July cover) “views Brüno’s ridiculous flamboyance as the perfect antidote to recessionary doldrums”.  She thinks “Fashion is, of course, an easy target, but when it’s done in a clever way, [making fun of it] can be a good thing”.  Stella McCartney has a soft spot for the comedian while even designer Agatha Ruiz de la Prada (whose Spring 2009 show was basically destroyed due to Brüno’s backstage antics) has gotten over her beef with the comedian and is even grateful for the publicity!    It’s not like we needed these endorsements to prompt us to see the film (we’ve been waiting for years to see the final result), but we’re happy to hear the fashion industy has a sense of humour!
