Waris Ahluwalia Instagram – It’s rare to be part of something so genuinely inclusive as the @collinastrada show. Not for the sake of “diversity” but for the sake of seeing BEAUTY in all its glory.
A CELEBRATION of beauty in the world that is as it actually is. Not some forced, antiquated ideals that are being fed to us everyday, everywhere we look.
To all my friends on the runway, it was an honor to walk with you.
For context, I’ve been out here doing this for a while now. My first billboard was in 1999. Yes, you read that right. Breaking boundaries for decades.
Representation normalizes the diversity around us rather than “othering” it. Representation allows us to come to the table with LOVE rather than fear. Representation creates the confidence that is required to succeed in this mad mad world. And funnily enough, fashion has the power to amplify that. Keep doing what you’re doing @_collina & @charlieengman
Hopefully others will follow.
