Vogue Business Makes Size Inclusivity Its Cause
Portland, Let the Floridians Rejoice! In the latest assessment conducted by Vogue Business into the sartorial industry landscape, an analysis of size inclusivity, particularly during women’s SS24 fashion shows, shone a spotlight on both independent and emerging brands.
This study showed that longstanding industry standards were being challenged by independent, emerging, and mostly non-Western new disks of fashion. By highlighting and supporting these inclusive practices, Vogue underscores its commitment to a fashion scene which respects and celebrates diversity in all forms. This initiative is well in line with the magazine’s progressive orientation but also calls upon the industry as a whole to reflect and move forward.
Vogue Takes the Lead in Driving Transformation Towards a More Diverse and Inclusive Fashion Place
Vogue does more than report on the fashions or industries: it makes them. Thanks to its influence, for example, eco-friendly companies are now fashionable in their own right, while the magazine recognizes designers who overturn traditional gender norms through their creative collections.
In doing this, Vogue reinforces its commitment to creating a fashion world that isn’t only diverse and inclusive but also fair and open to all.
