Black Model Recreates Top Fashion Campaigns To Highlight the Need for More Diversity in the Industry

Deddeh Howard, an American model born and raised in West Africa, is tired of black models being marginalized, so she’s doing something about it. Howard is raising awareness for more diversity in the fashion industry by publishing a series of photos to her website in which she recreates major advertising campaigns that originally starred A-list white models and actresses. She calls her project “Black Mirror,” as it reflects what each ad would look like if it were to feature a black woman instead a white one.
