Cathy Horyn grew up in Coshocton, Ohio, and is a fashion journalist, working as a critic for The New York Times where she also keeps a highly noted and provocative blog called ("On The Runway"). She is only the second NYT fashion critic, succeeding the late Amy Spindler when Spindler retired in November 2003. She started her career in fashion journalism in Detroit, in 1986, writing for The Detroit News, then moved to Washington, DC after four years, reviewing fashion design for The Washington Post. She joined the NYT in 1998.
Magazines and newspapers she contributes to include: Vogue, Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar, International Herald Tribune, etc. Horyn is known for her unflinching, even acerbic reviews, which has gotten her banned from numerous designer shows, most notably Giorgio Armani.
In 2002, she received the Eugenia Sheppard Award by the Council of Fashion Designers of America. She questioned the work and exposed the deal-making of Vogue editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour.[1]
