Cathy Horyn Biography

Cathy Horyn is one of the most popular and richest Journalist who was born on September 11, 1956 in Coshocton, United States. Cathy Horyn (born September 11, 1956) is an American fashion critic and journalist who worked for The New York Times from 1998 until 2014 where she had the highly noted and provocative blog On The Runway. In 2015, she was appointed critic- at-large for New York Magazine’s website The Cut, reviewing the Fall 2015 womenswear shows in New York and Paris. Horyn was only the second New York Times fashion critic, having succeeded Amy Spindler who retired in November

2003. She is a supporter of Belgian designer Raf Simons (who works with LVMH group ).

In January 2010, Horyn was widely criticized when she insinuated in an article that actress Christina Hendricks was large. The photo of Hendricks included in Horyn’s article was distorted by being widened, possibly to falsely illustrate Horyn’s point. The New York Times replaced the image, claiming that it had been only slightly distorted inadvertently due to an error during routine processing.

In September 2012, Horyn’s scathing review of Oscar de la Renta’s spring/summer 2013 collection, in which she referred to him as a “hotdog of American fashion,” garnered a great deal of negative press. De la Renta responded in an open letter, published in WWD, criticizing the lack of professionalism and the often personal nature of her infamous reviews, saying that if he was a “hotdog,” then Horyn might be a “stale 3 day old hamburger.” Horyn later addressed the designer’s retort through Fashionologie.com, defending her word choice of hotdog: “I used the term in a professional context, as someone showing off his tricks, like a surfer.”

Horyn’s review of Chelsea Clinton’s choice of gown and attire for her wedding stated: “Ms. Clinton’s dress, on the other hand, suggested a completely different relationship [than other wedding gowns Horyn had reviewed] with fashion — even, perhaps, an ambivalent one.”

In 2010, Horyn also wrote a critical article on Jersey Shore TV star Snooki, in which she described Snooki as a “turnip turned on its tip.” She wrote that talking with her “is a little like getting down on your hands and knees with a child” and noted that Snooki had reportedly “read only two books in her life.”

Lady Gaga wrote a column for V Magazine in 2011 questioning the opinions of some critics’ superiority over the general people’s opinions, as well as their not actually being interested in the arts but in simply criticizing, where she referred to Horyn as a predictable critic like many others.
