"Obama Effect" Crazily New York Fashion Week

Fashion week, round to New York. What are the differences? Hollywood stars? More practical and conservative design style? Men's women's wear together? In addition to these, we have summed up one point: that is, the skin color of a model.
Speaking of the recently concluded fashion week in Milan, I do not know if you have found that most of the models are still white or at least "white like". "Some shows indicate" No Blacks ". The 19 year old model Shawn Sutton told us at the back stage of Duckie Brown in New York fashion week.
"This is quite barbarous and, of course, full of racial discrimination," he added. "But in Paris, things are much better, so I have a good impression of Paris fashion week."
Even if it's new, the model just reflects the voice of a large number of black models. Earlier in fashion week in New York, although fashion circles still had so-called "exclusiveness", things seemed to have improved a lot. If I want to say so, this is the result of the obvious "Obama effect".
"Absolutely related to Obama," says Marcus Lloyd, the 22 year old African American model. From Obama, he told us: "I remember my agent saying," if you are elected president, you guys are lucky this year. Your work must be several times more than before. "
Duckie Brown may not be the best representative of the 200 show on the New York fashion week's list, but even the iconic designer Steven Cox and Daniel Silver will not reject the trend. It's like the famous writer Grace Paley once commented on New York - "beautiful color distribution."
Why do we regard this as a "change"? Because, perhaps in the near future, fashion magazines, advertising agencies and designers will suddenly find that more than white people can be models, and black people or other races are also fashionable. All of this may happen in the next New York fashion week or next New York fashion week.
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg once pointed out that the fashion industry has provided over 175000 jobs and over $100 billion salaries in New York, and some designers even do not understand black jokes. A designer once told me, "I never understand black jokes. I don't even know where they came from." In fact, you should know where they came from and open the map of New York with the word "Queens", which is the source of those jokes.
Of course, a similar Courtney Taylor, 20 years old, has now been designated as one of the advertising models of Dior Homme. "I never thought I could go to Milan and Paris," Courtney Taylor said. Similarly, the 19 year old Mr. Hollington has never heard of Versace, Jean Paul Gaultier or Giuliano Fujiwara before. For them, as a black model, to go to Milan or Paris to go to the show is nothing like what it used to be.
"Fashion show was basically white in those days," Shawn Sutton said. "I think it's time to get to change. I am not a black model, but a model. I just like to wear beautiful clothes and show them to others. "
In fact, reality is just like an "sea election" that Mr. Sutton once participated in. When he put down his Prosecco, he found that he included black, white, Asian and Latino in the surrounding models, as if you balanced and mixed up in the streets or on the subway every day. But how many times have you seen this scene on T?
"Maybe a black president will make the fashion industry more realistic." He said so bland. We also hope that the "Obama effect" can bring more surprises and "change" to the next fashion week and the next fashion week. After all, fashion is never afraid of change.
