Modelling World Makes Positive Move Towards Showcasing Disabilities

This year the fashion industry has made significant moves for representation equality during the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in NYC. To begin, mega-retailer Macy’s premiered last week with their “Go Red for Women” campaign on the catwalk, showcasing a line of clothing (all stunning red dresses) in the first-ever collaboration to fight against heart disease in women, backed by The American Heart Association.  “Macy’s has brought awareness [of heart disease] to consumers across America and has raised $46 million for the cause,” goredforwomen.org stated.

Live Like Peter Pan

This month marks the 62nd anniversary of Disney’s release of Peter Pan. I believe we all need to be like Peter Pan. No, not exactly Walt Disney’s Peter Pan.
