DIVERSITY, WHAT ARE YOU?
An assortment, a mixture, a variety.
An array, a range, a multiplicity.
Diversity is rich with difference.
CELINE - JOAN DIDION
JANUARY 2015
These women are iconic; skilled women who have honed their craft, noted contributors to the way we think, and feel. They are respected women who are original and authentic, wise and insightful, and most refreshingly, they seem to have remained untarnished by the need to iron out each and every line on their face with some kind of gelatinous fluid.
Women who have been honest, unsparing with their emotional generosity, and, at times, vulnerable with their work.
Women who made other women 'feel.'
Humanitarians.
SAINT LAURENT - JONI MITCHELL
JANUARY 2015
They aren't primped and polished, they aren't made up to perfection and perched on some expensive vehicle or in an exotic land: they are in a comfortable environment, they are comfortable with themselves and they are simply 'being' in front of the camera.
These campaigns are endearing because they are real, because they are a little rough around the edges. Its visually clarified that these women have LIVED and aren't hiding it.
They are truthful and authentic.
These are among the women that young women should aspire to be.
- basically, Madonna they are not.
(and thank god for that.)
SANG WOO FOR DIESEL
Sang Woo is a Korean-British model who has modelled for the likes of DKNY, Burberry and Dolce and Gabbana; he is manufacturing a new mould, a new look, a new vision.
He is diverse.
Diesel are a brand that 'deal' with multiculturalism and inclusion well. Their campaigns are diverse, endearingly tongue in cheek, twee and commendably cynical.
