From their respective stations, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/people\/lindsay-peoples-wagner\">Lindsay Peoples<\/a>, editor-in-chief of <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/client\/the-cut\">The Cut<\/a> and co-founder of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackinfashioncouncil.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Black in Fashion Council<\/a>, and model agent and BIFC board member,  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kylehagler\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kyle Hagler<\/a> know how far the industry has come in terms of inclusion&#8230;and that it has only scratched the surface. From their perspectives as industry insiders, both Peoples and Hagler, who recently started his new representation venture, No Smoking, are verified trailblazers in the fashion industry, known for their commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Through their ventures, they provide valuable perspectives on the importance of representation, the role of fashion in society, and what the future holds for the industry.
