Spiteful tongues won’t leave anything behind, not even a possible misunderstanding between MarioTestino and the store Anthropologie, at Rockefeller Plaza, that asked him for a photo of the stylist Isabela Blow. According to “Page Six”, from “New York Post”, Testino refused to donate a print.
* The picture in question would be used in the “Blow by Blow” book, by her widower Detmar Blow. A source said that so many photographers gladly supplied their work without any problems. But when they asked Mario, he said he was too busy and said that the fashion world didn’t deserve this picture, after all, the industry had killed Blow – who committed suicide in 2007. In the end, he donated a print for the exhibition; and complained his studio was not able to produce one "of exhibition quality "at such short notice. Can you believe that?
