Fashion has the power to amplify some of the most unique voices in our culture. However, despite being a multibillion-dollar industry that impacts and employs countless people, many—including workers and disabled people—are often excluded from the conversation. What could the industry achieve by embracing a new, more inclusive model? Thank you to Sinéad Burke, founder and CEO of Tilting The Lens, Sara Ziff, founder and executive director of the Model Alliance, and Lindsay Peoples, editor-in-chief of The Cut for joining us for an #IdeasAtFord with Charles Blow conversation. Don’t miss the full conversation with trailblazing figures who are working to make the world of fashion more accessible for all. fordf.org/Fashion

Making us more inclusive would achieve fairness, diversity, an opportunity to be heard and not brushed off. A real chance at acquiring a sustained quality of life.
