Vogue‘s style editor-at-large Elisabeth von Thurn und Taxis is under high media scrutiny after sharing a photo on Instagram of a homeless woman in Paris reading the magazine.
The German princess was in town for Paris Fashion Week and snapped a photo of the woman on a corner, captioning it:
Paris is full of surprises….and @voguemagazine readers even in unexpected corners!
Many of her followers proceeded with comments saying the photo was tasteless and cruel. The editor replied to her followers:
Why cruel? The person to me is as dignified as anyone else!
Since then, von Thurn und Taxis deleted the photo but you can see it below. What do you think about her comments?
