Another, clearly thrilled by the committee, tweeted,
“Tyla + Doechii on the committee? Sis, the slayage is already confirmed…” — basically hinting that fashion history is about to be made.

And in a particularly sharp comment, someone simply wrote,
“A bunch of Khias…”—referring to the internet's meme-filled interpretations of what could unfold this year.
