Las Vegas Aces superstar A’ja Wilson shows us what’s inside her Labubu-laden Louis Vuitton bag. The WNBA MVP always carries two pairs of glasses, depending on what the occasion calls for, and pulls out her favorite snack, a bag of Sour Patch Kids. The most meaningful item in A’ja’s bag is her late grandmother’s coin purse, which she now uses to carry her ID cards. “I don’t put coins in it because my heart’s in it.”

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.

What an important video, I’m so proud of all the models who participated and accepted to talk about how much representations matter. There are a couple brands like @myjojofr who try to do the same for men, it’s very inspiring !

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.

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.

I love love love all these girls but did they really explain the difficult part about being a model other than a lack of diversity?????

Are there any indigenous models on the runway? I’m Metis, Danish, Ukranian and more and feel that mixed people or aboriginal people are either not represented or underrepresented. In all my schools growing up I was the only aboriginal girl and even though I loved fashion there was no one to look up to. Now at age 34 my dreams of being on the runway are over before they even began because no one was showing me that it was possible. The mental health struggles have been severe with many hospitalizations and chronic pain, poverty and more recently homelessness along for the ride. Shelters and counsellors and helpers are sometimes okay but in the end it’s me dealing with all these lost things alone.

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 <3 <3 <3

I love Adut Akech, Anok Yai, Adesuwa Aighewi, and Ugbad Abdi. They’re such humble, fearless role models and women.
