Black Girl Magic Slaying The New York Fashion Week Runway

The lack of diversity and black models in the fashion industry is a topic that’s been written about numerous times. Season after season, there just never seems to be enough of us strutting down the catwalk, despite the plethora of brown and black models.

But this season is looking much better and im loving it! Binx Walton has already opened and closed one Fashion Week’s most coveted shows, Tom Ford, and Selena Forrest and Lineisy Montero have already walked. Check out the sprinkling of #blackgirlmagic down the runway.
