I didnt realize how young Adut is. Guys Adut was born in 2000...you'd never say cause she oozes such sophistication and maturity. Also my fav seen is when Anok & Adesuwa put on Nigerian accents, lmao on point.
Lynette Scribner The same point lies in the inclusivity within makeup brands, being honest, the reason why certain brands don't go deeper or lighter is because generally skin tones of those ranges are more uncommon than a medium shade would be, which would equate to that shade being bought less frequently, which is why asian cosmetics don't go particularly deeper, since women here generally prefer lighter or have lighter skin, so they will buy lighter shades. However, that is not a valid reason to not cater towards a certain demographic of people, while male fashion is less common within the industry, that does not mean that men should have less opportunities than women, for women should not have less opportunities than men.
@Lynette Scribner Actually, there is NO problem. It is simple supply and demand. Certain industries pay more for men than they do women and vice versa. I know you did not say the phrase l but I just want to take this perfect opportunity to point out to everyone that THERE IS NO GENDER WAGE GAP.
Some people legitimately think you’re not pretty unless you’re white, long blonde haired, blue eyed, skinny, and young. I’ve met some of these people before unfortunately. Completely brainwashed
@@dokidoki719 I don't wanna be a model too, but I find all the girls in the video inspiring because of their cleverness, confidence and inside (besides the outside) beauty. They're definitely revolutioning the fashion industry and I'm living for ittttttttttt
Woo, this brought tears to my eyes. I just don't think people realize how much society beauty standards impact your mental healthy. Even for myself as a Black man, I had to learn - as a grown man! - that the blonde, blue eyed White guy was not somehow better than me because he looked like what society stated was beautiful. This was such a beautiful tribute. Thank you, Vogue.
There are some stereotypical "white" features that society deems beautiful like blue/green eyes, thin small nose. And there are some stereotypical "black" features that society deems beautiful like full/bigger lips and tan/darker skin tone.
wow thats really sad and I so can relate as men we don't even get this dialogue because it's taken so long for even women to get that discussion going as the prime fashion target audience.
@@AB-pq3oh this is not true. These 'black features' are being fetishized now but for most of modern western history were looked down upon bc of very racialized beauty standards. Being 'tan' is not being BLACK and being BLACK has and continues to be degraded in western society.
You guys always bring out the dark skinned models and plus sized models for these serious videos. I want to also see more of them in your "day in the life of", "makeup tutorial", "prepare for runway" videos!! These guys can be fun too why don't you let them?
Also Vogue, you're literally responsible for perpetuating and maintaining the standards that these women are fighting against. If you think you're doing enough you've another thing coming. With your kind of resources you need to be doing so much more lol.
I totally get what you’re saying, but at the same time, the darker skinnned models are the ONLY ones whose stories I’d actually listen to, because they have all of the problems the white models have plus their own struggles strictly because of their skin. There’s just now starting to be more diversity in the industry, still still fewer than I’d like,but it’s slowly headed in the right direction. I would never listen to the struggles of white models because they Are thought of as the ideal, they get paid more, they have hairdressers and makeup artists at every show for people who look like them, whereas the black girls would have to bring their own makeup and do their own hair. So yeah I’d love to see more playful videos with them, I saw a couple already, but it’s really important for them to speak to this because the problem, still exists, until that is fixed, in my mind, they are the only ones who have the floor.
Mudassar Ahmad i was thinking this the whole time. vogue has complete control over beauty standards. they are the pinnacle of the fashion industry, i think it’s ironic how they were (and still are) major contributors to the problem and currently act like they’re breaking barriers.
Honestly, I am very touched that a Caucasian woman could realise she’s been represented a whole lot and can actually empathise with those who haven’t. God bless her
I liked her message, but I didn't like, she said "I was lucky to..." the wording was off for me. She has to recognize she had a lot of privilege, but is not luck, is oppression.
The perfect Stranger ...it’s not makeup . if it was makeup then every other person would be a model, but obviously they’re models because of their NATURAL beauty...
@@luislaclair but also, make up. Also, please be aware that video beautifying software exists. Obviously, these women are naturally pretty. But they very well could have some blemishes we are not seeing bc vogue doesnt want them to be seen. After all. it's the beauty industry. they have to look beautiful to us.
Adut is the first high fashion model since Karlie Kloss to have managed to go mainstream stardom. I assume it’s because of the fall of Victoria’s Secret, which leaves High Fashion as the only outlet of models at this level of international stardom.
Teared up having heard Ugbad's story. You could see the pain she's gone through and how that's pushed her to climb her way up and blossom gracefully, surreal. Love Vogue for documenting this. Such an inspiration, truly heart warming yet moving. Bless these beautiful models, bless diversity, equality and peace
I'm glad Vogue is "evolving" but remember Vogue should be held accountable for focusing their advertisements in magazines and now online to diet-related articles. Supporting a different "ideal" now doesn't specifically reject or eliminate a major fashion magazines role in creating serious image and body issues for millions of women.
Companies don't actually care about anything they're "standing for" now. Just like they didn't care when they did bad or toxic things. It's all about profit, but they let people like you think you make a difference by making a Twitter post, but it's all manufactured just to get you to spend your money with them. There is no such thing as an actual Woke Brand ™️ Be kind to others in your own path in life and try your best in each new moment to do good and push yourself to be better. The only person you can control is yourself.
They have blood on their hands that they're now washing off by using minorities as pawns to spread their new agenda. These companies have done a lot of damage.
8:36 ugbad almost crying is such a touching moment. wow, humans we CAN do it. we can be EMPATHETIC. we can lead with LOVE. we can share in our HUMANITY, in all the beautiful forms we come in.
Um the brazilian girl said it well!! I mean how can beauty be a standard when they are so many people in this world...we are all beautiful in our own way...
Ant rip honestly that’s how a standard african accent sounds like. i’m Ghanaian and ive been surrounded by many africans my whole life while i lived in south tyrol italy and there is a foundation of the many languages we all speak as africans that have a similar accent or way of pronunciation. i don’t think she was trying to mock a nigerian accent, just an african accent in general.
I would really love to know the stories of how all these beautiful models who do not fit the traditional mould made it into the industry. Please do a compilation Vogue, this was so lovely, thank you!
0:25 These 2 brainy ladies -- Anok Yai & Adesuwa Aighewi -- were science-majors in universities before switching to modeling; in fact, I think Ms. Aighewi was in bio-chem or chemistry, as Cindy Crawford, who studied 1 year as a straight-A chemical engineering student at Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois before devoting full time to modeling.
@@merleveenendaal1236 why is it sad? If it didn't make them happy, they should pursue something else. Who cares what the world thinks if you're unhappy or feel unsatisfied with your life
So glad to see so many different types of models getting the recognition that they deserve. Also the Sudan and Somalia produces some of the most beautiful women on the planet . So ecstatic to see these beautiful Queens on the cover of magazines and on Runways
That literally is the ONLY glamorous part of the job. The other 99% of the job is one of the ugliest experiences a girl could ever have. No joke. You have to be very strong and self-confident to make it through all the sleaze in the fashion industry.
Jackson Heights literally everything has a negative aspect to it. The solution is never “just don’t do it.” Would you ever tell someone not to be a doctor or a lawyer? Those are difficult jobs, and people with those occupations will tell you so themselves, yet they’re well-respected positions and people still aspire to become them. It’s called acknowledging the reality behind the exterior.
This video literally made me cry, because it has touched very important topic. I can feel the pain of this models, as in the childhood I always watched “American Next Top Model” and “Russian Next Top Model” and I really dreamt to become a model in the future. But everybody told me that my dream will never come true, as I’m fat. Now I have an opportunity to become a model, and I’m graceful everyone, who is changing the worlds attitude towards the beauty standards!❤️
Gosh this video made me so teary....all these girls are soooo young but wise and mature beyond their years. Every single one of them was so articulate and so eloquently told their stories. More videos of these beautiful women please Vogue xx
A few days ago, I watched a Jacqemus runway show. A gloriously curvy model wore a cropped cardigan and trousers and she OWNED that runway, I was mesmerised and delighted seeing an actual curvy woman like me on the runway, now I know her name is Jill Kortleve. I hope to see her again, and more models like her.
i hate this idea that models are dumb and have it easy.. like they're so well spoken and have amazing personalities and worked hard for their lifestyle. so much respect
this is what we should strive for. the unity of “us” is where beauty is. all of our colors are beautiful. greatly beautiful. and together, we make this picture cxx
If Adut wasn't on the thumbnail I wouldn't have clicked. It was so refreshing to watch such honest beautiful models. Where is your nyash killed me😂 We deserved to see them more. Make up looks, get ready with them. WE. WANT. MORE!😭😍😍😍
beautiful. grateful for these strong women. to all other women/girls that don’t feel good in their skin, please embrace who you are, you are unique and beautiful. stay strong out there. it’s a harsh world.
Ugbad abdi made me tear a lil bit, being a Somali Muslim girl and seeing girls like Halima and her on the front page of fashion make me happy because I’ve always loved fashion since I was tiny and just thought my dreams were just imaginations and nothing more but seeing them shows me it’s not and I shouldn’t of ever seen them as daydreams
that girl who was saying that size 6 girls arent allowed to be part of the body positive movement is stupid, the whole movement is about being inclusive and even size 6 girls can feel like crap about their bodies its not just people who are bigger..... also the body positivity movement is much more than just size, its about feeling comfortable in your skin
I'm Nigerian and "where is your yansh?" is soo true. Beauty standards are relative. You can't please every environment and that's fine. Physical beauty is overrated...be a beautiful soul
This video was everything...❤️ I'm glad Vogue brought awareness to this topic. I'm an aspiring model and getting in the industry is so hard mentally and physically.
Vogue brought awareness to their own discrimination. Who do you think Iman, Naomi, and Bethann Hardison were complaining about in their video? Let's hope Vogue will continue with their atmosphere of belonging and representation.
My primary and high school were 99% white. Most of them think I was ugly because I'm asian. I dont have blond or brown hair and white skin. I have long black hair, brown eyes and a little tanned. We should teach our children that everyone is beautiful no matter what your skincolour is
Omg that ending hit hard though, I didn’t expect this actually I thought it was gonna be sugar coated like sometimes you don’t like the clothes you’re put in and that’s it but Vogue is doing amazing.
this helps me feel good that we have an unanimous struggle. ive always felt guilty that i dislike myself because i am extremely thin. people look at me like i am insane for saying such things. but the same people tell me i need to eat, and "are you anorexic?" i hate being what girls think they want to be, because fuller bodies are so gorgeous. but this shows me all people have the same battle of being criticised and forming insecurities over silliness. because beauty really is deeper than the surface. and who cares what everyone thinks?
I'm so glad vogue is putting this out to the world. I've seen way too many comments on modelling videos saying "wow they have it easy just having a pretty face." Modelling is sooo much more than a pretty face. So, thank you vogue for giving us more of a raw version of modelling.
I love vogue even more for videos like this. I came here because of Adut, but pleasantly surprised to see Adesuwa, and the other very inspiring models paving the way for young girls.
"Well how come you don't look as good as your pictures?" 🤣🤣 That's the one right there. It's funny but it's also true and the public need to be more aware of the difference between the before, in between and the end result.
" people think I'm either a boy , or i'm cute" --- girl, I think you are a goddess

...by pretending male models dont exist

beautiful. grateful for these strong women. to all other women/girls that don’t feel good in their skin, please embrace who you are, you are unique and beautiful. stay strong out there. it’s a harsh world.
Vogue said DIVERSITY

Anok and Adesuwa’s friendship is the cutest thing 😍😍
Why are we not talking about Paloma??
She's so beautiful, smart and amazing 💕😍
Everything about adut is captivating. she is so stunning and beautifully spoken.
for me it's simple
i see adut, i click
Ugbad abdi made me tear a lil bit, being a Somali Muslim girl and seeing girls like Halima and her on the front page of fashion make me happy because I’ve always loved fashion since I was tiny and just thought my dreams were just imaginations and nothing more but seeing them shows me it’s not and I shouldn’t of ever seen them as daydreams
that girl who was saying that size 6 girls arent allowed to be part of the body positive movement is stupid, the whole movement is about being inclusive and even size 6 girls can feel like crap about their bodies its not just people who are bigger..... also the body positivity movement is much more than just size, its about feeling comfortable in your skin
I'm Nigerian and "where is your yansh?" is soo true. Beauty standards are relative. You can't please every environment and that's fine. Physical beauty is overrated...be a beautiful soul
This video was everything...❤️ I'm glad Vogue brought awareness to this topic. I'm an aspiring model and getting in the industry is so hard mentally and physically.
Vogue brought awareness to their own discrimination. Who do you think Iman, Naomi, and Bethann Hardison were complaining about in their video? Let's hope Vogue will continue with their atmosphere of belonging and representation.
" To me, beauty is your sense of self" - best thing I've heard
My primary and high school were 99% white. Most of them think I was ugly because I'm asian. I dont have blond or brown hair and white skin. I have long black hair, brown eyes and a little tanned. We should teach our children that everyone is beautiful no matter what your skincolour is
Omg that ending hit hard though, I didn’t expect this actually I thought it was gonna be sugar coated like sometimes you don’t like the clothes you’re put in and that’s it but Vogue is doing amazing.
Im crying! Anok Adesuwa Adut Ugbad is the perfect example of strong beautiful young women! I stan! Aahh.. xoxo
No mean comments! Yeah. Love
this helps me feel good that we have an unanimous struggle. ive always felt guilty that i dislike myself because i am extremely thin. people look at me like i am insane for saying such things. but the same people tell me i need to eat, and "are you anorexic?" i hate being what girls think they want to be, because fuller bodies are so gorgeous. but this shows me all people have the same battle of being criticised and forming insecurities over silliness. because beauty really is deeper than the surface. and who cares what everyone thinks?
Vogue really keeping up with the times, good job this was a good mix of the models trending today love to see it!
When I saw tears in Ugbad Abdi’s eyes that moment made me cry ...
All of them are gorgeous
Adut is so gorgeous! All these girls are beautiful
Here for Ugbad!!!
i just cried on these interviews!!! thank you
wow this video is so powerful in many ways.
I'm so glad vogue is putting this out to the world. I've seen way too many comments on modelling videos saying "wow they have it easy just having a pretty face." Modelling is sooo much more than a pretty face. So, thank you vogue for giving us more of a raw version of modelling.
When she said Nigeria, I knew I was at the right place
I love vogue even more for videos like this. I came here because of Adut, but pleasantly surprised to see Adesuwa, and the other very inspiring models paving the way for young girls.
This is iconic! ❤️
"Well how come you don't look as good as your pictures?" 🤣🤣 That's the one right there. It's funny but it's also true and the public need to be more aware of the difference between the before, in between and the end result.
