More than ever, there's a debate growing about whether runways express the diversity seen in the real world, and if not, why isn't that happening?
Well, for Fall 2016, H&M Studio just proved that it's not only possible, it looks just as incredible and stylish to have models of different ages, body types, skin color, and gender identities as it did to have models of all one type — maybe even more so. From plus size model Ashley Graham to trans women Andreja Pejic and Hari Nef, all that mattered was that these ladies looked amazing in the clothes.
As customers, isn't that what we all want? Click through to see some of the looks from H&M Studio's Fall 2016 show.
