WHO IS WRITER LOUIS PISANO? Influential Paris-based fashion journalist paying attention to Heart, Chiz, and the Flood Scandal:

• Louis has been following the scandal since 10 months ago, even posting photos of Anti-Heart and Chiz protestors from Paris. 
• In December, he wrote an article called Fashion Twitter is mad Daniel Roseberry Dressed a MAGA heiress. where he revealed:

“The recent accusations that Filipino politician Chiz Escudero bankrolled his wife influencer and front row staple, Heart Evangelista’s couture habits with misappropriated public funds*—sent me back to a long, uncomfortable truth about fashion’s most coveted clients: many arrive at the atelier by paths that wind through the darker corners of global power.”*

• He launched an Instagram/Tiktok series called “Couture & Corruption” inspired by Heart herself (Substack, Twitter/X, Instagram, Tiktok)
• He refers to Heart Evangelista as a “CLIENT” not a paid ambassador in his new article:

"The Filipino actress, influencer, and couture client who was actually the inspiration behind my Couture & Corruption series. Her husband, Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero, had been embroiled in scandals involving the alleged embezzlement of public funds, including money intended for flood relief and disaster aid. Many believed that Heart’s extravagant couture purchases were funded, at least in part, by these embezzled funds which led to protests with signs featuring her face and allegedly caused her to skip an entire couture season."
