FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “Barbara Blanchard, a champion of diversity and inclusion in the fashion world” – below is their description.
Barbara Blanchard is a business owner on a mission. Her belief in the importance not only of diversity but also inclusion infuses everything she does. In the 1990s she helped put on a groundbreaking fashion show with Lamine Kouyaté, founder of the label Xuly Bët, casting 100 Black models at a time when diversity simply wasn’t on the industry’s radar. Today, she offers diversity training to companies, while also working as a talent agent and running a fashion label devoted to women’s football. We went to meet this exceptional woman.
