"BRAZILIANS LOBBY FOR A QUOTA OF 20% BLACK MODELS AT São Paulo Fashion Week"


""Research showed their clients still reject the combination of black [models] and luxury clothing," writes a Brazilian fashion editor whose name, ironically, is Vivian Whiteman. An African-Brazilian booker named Bruno Soares agrees: "For historical reasons Brazil's black population has been poor and not a consumer of fashion. This is reflected in the casting," he said, calling these factors "cruel rules." So how much do quotas really help change these things? It's a step in the right direction, but it's hard to tell how far-reaching its effects will be." nymag.com/daily/fashion/
