Between announcements of yet another white man being appointed to lead a luxury house, modelling agencies recruiting refugees and then mistreating them, and curve models making up less than 1% of SS24 runways; its safe to say the fashion girlies are not alright.

This week, Ione and Gina are debating if change is ever possible within an oppressive system, what the failure of diversity efforts mean, and how we as consumers can strive for change.
