The perpetuation of a narrow definition of beauty contributes to a racial bias. There is a disproportionate representation of different ethnicities and body types in the design field as well as among the models on the runways and in the pages of fashion magazines. As the public becomes more aware of the issue, they realize that if they are being asked to invest in the products, they are entitled to see themselves represented in the fashion ads, in the editorials, and on the catwalks.
