Modesty has been a subject of spirited controversy through the ages. The reasons may be due to the constantly changing modesty attitudes which may vary from place to place, from age to age, from one section of society to another, and even from one time of day to another. Changing fashions add further interest and controversy to modesty. With each change in fashion, interest and attention are directed to different parts of the body, thus creating changes in modesty attitudes. Modesty can be manifested through clothing. Modesty assumes different forms in different countries, it varies from places, age and even in the time of the day and role the person is assuming.

From April Ashley to Valentine Sampaio, we have seen transgender models gracing magazine covers and fashion runways. They are style icons, celebrities, teachers and they can be the next-door neighbor that loves to invite you out for dinner. Yet, it is only recently that a fraction of the people in Indonesia is understanding the term, transgender.
Today, we take a deep dive to see what transgenders face when being themselves is still considered to be a mental illness and the reason for natural disasters. How do they navigate themselves when being true to yourself is not socially acceptable?
Join us as we gain more insights into the transgender community in Indonesia and the country's developing fashion industry with guests Remy @remmieux, fashion designer turned model turned entrepreneur, as well as Dena @denarachman of @bebitalk and co-founder to one of the top modeling agencies in Indonesia @futuremodels.id.
With our Special Guest: Colombian Fashion Designer, Laura Rondón.
“All culture matters”, but today we are concentrating on the fashion industry’s prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination towards Latinxs.
Latinxs talent abounds, but Latinx’s influence on the fashion industry is unparalleled. However, demographic differences and recent business changes suggest that if the industry fails to adjust and consider one of its largest customer-based (and sources of creative genius) Latinxs this model could be catastrophic.
For the past few years, the beauty standards that focus on skin colour and body proportion have become a proper debate in society. The major issue occurring in the fashion industry is the racist beauty ideals that favour light skin tones and discriminate against darker skin tones as well as the fact that women are still judges by the body size. Not to mention why some women prefer to use skin whitening products, diet pills, and detox teas just to be fitted with unrealistic beauty standards.
In this week's episode, we interviewed @marcella.margareth as the Founder of Semilir, an Indonesian Sustainable Local Fashion Brands, and Irene Atalia @ireneatalia, who previously worked at Female Daily, Indonesia's most extensive and No. 1 Beauty Destination. They will share their perspective and experiences towards the Indonesian Beauty Stigma and how Fashion and Beauty Brands have started to eliminate this stigma by implementing diversity and inclusivity.

Inclusivity is a hot topic in the fashion industry. Fashion is constantly evolving and with changes in style, comes changes in commerce as well. The Deaf community is often over looked in conversations surrounding inclusivity in the fashion industry. The shopping experience alone is enough to discourage members of the Deaf community from going out and enjoying a day of retail therapy. On this weeks episode, we interviewed two top Deaf fashion and lifestyle influencers, @emmafayerudkin, and @mrlukechristian, on their experiences with fashion in relationship to being Deaf.
