According to the organization, Models for Diversity, a volunteer only group, discrimination in the modeling & fashion industry has been a problem since the 60’s when the beautiful but super skinny Twiggy first graced the catwalks. From that moment on the Industry set a standard… an unrealistic standard that is not in tune with the modern woman.
The Models for Diversity campaign is dedicated to raising awareness for models with various disabilities. See a “rant” by one of the members below and hear her take on models with disabilities in the fashion industry.
