tokenism in modelling - a podcast by i-D

This week we hand the reigns over to South London broadcaster and friend of i-D Zooey Gleaves. Zooey’s going to be investigating how the fashion industry has changed and how a new generation of models are championing ideas of representation. He’s going to be discussing what the emergence of new bodies in fashion can provoke, and whether casting choices can be inclusive as well as tokenistic. And he’s going to be hearing from three models working today -- Josephine Jones, Jordan Charles and Al Ly, asking them about their careers so far and their experiences of working in an industry accustomed to, as he puts it, “cookie cutter ideals of beauty”.
