At a time when we seem to be witnessing increasing racial prejudice in sport, media and industry as a whole. It is refreshing to see beauty personified in 5 women of African descent.
Miss world: Winner Toni-Ann Singh of Jamaica. Dec 2019.

Miss America: Winner Nia Imani Franklin USA. 2019.
Miss Teen USA : Winner Kaliegh Garris Connecticut . April 2019.

Already, reverberations of seismic proportion are resounding throughout the beauty and fashion industry as the full scale of their success’s are realised.
I for one will be raising a glass to theses 5 talented, tenacious black women as they continue to challenge stereotypes, break down barriers and open doors that have been previously closed to them.
