Fashion Feuds!
Catfights are practically part of the job in fashion. From Kiefer Sutherland’s headbutt to Coco Chanel’s arson, The Daily Beast celebrates the best-dressed rivalries of all time.
Fashion is notorious for housing some of the cattiest personalities around. While more often than not, designers and mannequins come to verbal blows, as opposed to physical ones, last week proved that fashion’s stomping grounds are as brutal as ever. Proenza Schouler’s Jack McCollough made headlines following Vogue’s annual Costume Gala at the Met Museum after receiving particularly nasty headbutt (which broke the designer’s nose in three places) from actor Kiefer Sutherland at an afterparty in Manhattan.
Meanwhile, legendary French designer Azzedine Alaia is at war with Anna Wintour over being left out of the Met Gala’s latest exhibition, Model as Muse. With so much sartorial warfare taking place, it’s tough keeping track of couture’s many clashes. View our gallery for fashion’s 10 most legendary feuds.
