It's official: Ashley Graham just became the first plus-size model ever to walk in a Michael Kors runway show. With the ink barely dry on her latest Vogue cover, 'tis the season of body positivity, as the industry finally seems to be putting into motion what Ashley has been speaking about for her whole career. Ashley is an unapologetic advocate for the dissolution of body categories, constantly using her platform to show how there is too much "us" and "them" when discussing body types. In fact, there is no one type at all.
Though Michael Kors has said in previous seasons that, though his clothing is sold in sizes that go up to a 16, it wouldn't be logistically possible to include anyone larger than traditional sample size in the runway show. Nonetheless, we're beyond-thrilled that this fall 2017 season, he made it happen.
Ashley looked stunning in a gray ribbed knit sweater dress, belted at the waist, and a cropped fur jacket. The rest of the collection was full of soft grays and luscious camels. It was rife with luxe textures such as ribbed knits, fur outerwear, and tweed suiting separates. Among the models, we spotted Victoria's Secret Angel Taylor Hill, Bella Hadid, and Kendall Jenner closed the show in a to-die-for black strapless gown. Young Hollywood favorite Sistine Stallone sat front row for all the action. See everything you missed, right here.
