What: In an industry supposedly dictated by beauty and style, why are certain groups granted limited access? Why is the fashion model of color categorized by race? Why is this generation of Black models nearly invisible? Industry veteran Bethann Hardison leads an open discussion on the lack of Black images in the current world of fashion. Panel participants Thelma Golden and Tracy Reese will speak candidly on the limitations on Blacks in the multi billion-dollar business of fashion.
