! Those last two...wow

Another sad note of the year the great designer YSL has passed. Many will miss & remember his great designs but I what's most endearing to me is that he was one of the first,if not the first to really be a champion for blackmodels. So here are some lovely runway divas 'giving meaning' as he would say to his fashions

^ I would wear just about anything from his collection! He's opened doors for so many black models and saw the true beauty of all black women. He will be missed.

Did anyone watch Fashion Blackout on BET? It was about the lack of black models in fashion.

simplylovely · 03-06-2008

^ I wrote something about that in Yordanos T.'s thread because I started watching it near the end of the show. But I feel that alot of what people were saying is true.

Deborah Kidd, looks like she would have done well as a model in the early 90's, not so much now though...she is pretty though.

I watched it and wasn't that interesting. yes the high fashion industry is cl assist and prejudice at the moment but I can't expect an industry that promotes images of unattainable lifestyles to the general public to be open to diversity. designers don't portray reality hence the lack of variety in race on the runway. it's terrible and I would love more than anything for the industry to put more colour on the runway but the fashion industry is just too flawed .
