In the eyes of many—including models, designers, stylists and modeling agency bosses—fashion has been neglecting Black, Indigenous and people of color (BIPOC) for, essentially, its entire history.
12 min readLindsay Peoples Wagner, editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue, and communications consultant Sandrine Charles create the Black In Fashion Council.has faced two momentous hurdles. The first involved transitioning from the physical runway to the digital, due to the coronavirus pandemic. There, the industry succeeded, and even broke ground by hosting the first virtual Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week in July.
Girald, who is Latina and has a fully diverse staff, was recently tossed into the spotlight due to the launch of her"Nude For All" underwear line, which includes seven shades of nude for white, Black women, and everyone in between. She and her company are the exception in the fashion industry, where models say most on-set teams are entirely white, and clothes are rarely made to flatter nonwhite bodies.
"To be inclusive is not just to have a Black model, but also a makeup artist that doesn't make you look ashy, or a hair stylist that knows how to deal with thick, curly hair, or a photographer that knows what lighting looks good on your skin," she said. Melani, who is signed to Willcox's agency, said she and her fellow models of color see the company's recent claims about understanding and supporting Black talent as a"performance." She said that of the 80 or so models signed to the agency, only eight are of color, and all of them are either"mixed or light-skinned and with curly hair -- because apparently that's what white people think all Black girls look like.
