What is the new Vogue Challenge and why is it trending now?

The new and trending Vogue Challenge is doing rounds on social media for all the noble and right reasons. Check out some of them here

To amplify the voice of Black Lives Matter moment and to ensure greater equality, black models, fashion photographers and stylists have taken social media by storm for a noble reason. They demand equal opportunities to be the face of Vogue magazines or photograph the models for the magazine. The Vogue Challenge saw many black fashion photographers, models, designers, stylists and make-up artists displaying their work and talent on the cover of the famous magazine.

Respecting diversity in the profession, the challenge is truly empowering for all the black people working in the fashion, make-up or the related industries to bring black stories to light.

The #VogueChallenge is truly beautiful to see. It isn't enough to have JUST Black models on the cover of Vogue. There should be space for Black photographers to bring these stories to life. In Vogue's 125 year history there has been one Black photographer to photograph a cover. pic.twitter.com/fNLL19AzKe

According to The Guardian, Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of US Vogue, apologised to her employees for instances of racism. “I want to say plainly that I know Vogue has not found enough ways to elevate and give space to black editors, writers, photographers, designers and other creators. We have made mistakes too, publishing images or stories that have been hurtful or intolerant. I take full responsibility for those mistakes.”

"I want to say plainly that I know Vogue has not found enough ways to elevate and give space to black editors, writers, photographers, designers and other creators," Wintour said in an internal memo widely reported in the media.

Edited this before I got to know what started the whole Vogue Challenge and what issues it was really about. Hence, refraining myself from using the hashtag, but sharing the picture anyway because I love how it turned out, haha?? - #selfshoot #selfportrait #picsartedit #suemestylebook #warmtones #shimmer #summer2020 #lifeinquarantine #stayhome
