VOGUE ITALIA - BLACK | MODELS MOMENTS | KIARA KABUKURU


Kiara Kabukuru is one of my favorite models over the years.  I haven't seen much of her recently but she continues to be an important part of the industry.  Ugandan born model didn't think she could be a model because she isn't as tall as most runway models.  Listen as she talks about what she loves about New Yorkers and how they express themselves through fashion.  She also shares her personal style and how her career as a model began and grew unexpectedly.

Naomi Campbell, Bethann Hardison and Iman make their appearance on Good Morning America in early September.  The two supermodels are big supporters of the coalition headed by Hardison to promote diversity in the fashion industry.
