La librairie des livres interdits

Marc Levy

Description

For the very first time this book examines the issue of Race and Racism in the global fashion industry, and how a handful of courageous pioneers and agents for change have made a major impact on this influential industry. An industry that in many way defines what is considered to be beauty and worthwhile.

Racial diversity in fashion is not just a long overdue moral imperative it's also a business imperative. Famous management consulting business McKinsey's will tell you that in business (and the business of fashion is no exception) increasing diversity is not just a moral imperative, it is also becoming a powerful business requirement. Diversity and representation is also good for the bottom line. Organisations equipped with a range

of voices and perspectives throughout the ranks are better able to innovate, take risks, solve problems creatively, bounce back from failures, and turn challenges into opportunities. But progress around the world, especially in leadership roles, has been lacklustre. Diversity is something that Marco Bizzari President and CEO of Gucci since January 2015, and creative director Allessandro Michele take seriously.

This groundbreaking new 7-part feature film and book Series "TRUE BEAUTY" is a detailed exploration of humankind's ongoing and ever changing fascination with the idea of beauty.

From ancient times, through the Renaissance and Middle Ages, through the Golden screen ages of Hollywood, right through to the modern evolution of the Supermodel in history. For global release in 2022.

It stars and is presented by Tyson Beckford, who also Narrates the Series along, with fashion legend Bethann Hardison.

Artists as far back as ancient times humankind has been fascinated with what was considered 'the ideal' in human form.

We travel in time through history, through the movements of the 60's, the 70's, the 80's and 90's, right up to the present day. To explore the changing notion of 'the ideal'.

And along the way we take a deep dive into the worlds of art and culture, and the often neglected world of 'male beauty' seen through the lives of the most important male models to ever live.
