According to The Business of Fashion, the practice of "sometimes putting a non-white face on a magazine cover" isn't enough anymore, nor has it ever been. Fashion is meant to reflect the audience it serves, and that means ultimately representing people of color rather than targeting only white people. Racial and ethnic diversity is not limited to models whose faces appear on magazine covers; true diversity means hiring non-white stylists, designers, directors, and producers. This means creating fashion agencies with both a variety of staff and a variety of models because doing so brings "diversity in perspective." Making room for minority groups to build, create, design, and produce communities that have not hitherto been included in inclusion can lift the prejudices that human-made racial stigma has created and bind communities together.
But inclusivity doesn't stop there. Given that representation of the LGBTQ+ community is also an integral part of the future of fashion, the fashion industry better started to think about LGBTQ+ communities as well. At the same time, it is the representation of disabled people who make up 20% of the society in a group with a lack of representation. Taking action on this issue is one of the basic obligations that should be in an inclusive fashion ecosystem. However, while talking about these problems, the fact that the design is life-centric rather than being user-centric or customer-centric, meaning that it can be produced without harming the materials, all living things, and anyone in the production process, is again the subject of sustainability.
