The situation is indeed complicated, but it raises an important question about just how committed the fashion industry is to ridding any and all ties with the Trump name and its many businesses. We've gone from trying to figure out how to dress (and solve) a problem like Melania Trump to watching major designers and retailers back away from the family altogether. While the comments on Aylward's Facebook status include those in total agreement with his decision, many of whom, like the hairstylist, are concerned about the models themselves, who are caught in the middle of the media storm and thus may feel lost or unsure of whose hands to put their career in next. Or, really, if other agencies will even be willing to take them. It goes without saying, though, that a few of the bigger names signed to Trump models won't have any problems finding new representation, such as icons like Pat Cleveland and Carol Alt . However, we can't imagine they won't be faced with an awkward conversation or two when asked why they've chose to remain signed to the troublesome agency. We've reached out to several other artists who responded to Aylward's thread and will add their responses here once we hear back.
