Charla Carter entered the Parisian fashion world at a time when fashion was high fashion, and it had the power to satisfy a certain woman鈥檚 desires for beauty. However, after 30 years working in the heart of the industry, she realized that fashion as she knew it had absolutely no effect on the average woman鈥檚 life. She was not sanguine about the future of fashion, but as a leader in the industry, she has contributed to making fashion and the benefits that come with it more accessible to the average woman by working as both a stylist on ABC Talk TV鈥檚 鈥淚ncredible Transformation鈥� and as a 鈥渟enior influencer鈥� on social media. Carter, in her naturally elegant and charismatic way, states, 鈥淚 think everyone would like for their life to be more beautiful, and fashion is a tool that can bring you beauty, and when you feel beautiful, I think, that leads to happiness.鈥澨�

While Carter has focused on what fashion can do for the average woman, Genevi猫ve Hartmann, who has worked as a fashion and retail business leader for brands such as 听Amazon Fashion, Nordstrom and Vogue, says she is most interested in leveraging the fashion industry as a vehicle to address the climate crisis and to minimize the effects of fashion on the environment. And Liana Engel, Global Director of Talent and Entertainment at Cartier, is focused on the ways fashion can be diversified to take into account gender and ethnicity. Indeed, the pressure to find the next face of fashion falls heavily on Engel鈥檚 shoulders at Cartier, but 鈥渋nstead of emphasizing the person in the portrait,鈥� she believes we should be associating those faces with the personality behind them, and how they make their mark on the world. 鈥淚n the past, it's always been just an actor or an actress, the best of the best. There are so many different types of talents, though,鈥� she says.听

Hartmann echoes this idea when she states, 鈥渨hen looked at individually, we tend to immediately associate 鈥榝ashion鈥� with fashion houses or luxury brands, but zoom out, and we see a much, much deeper landscape. And deeper landscapes mean more opportunities to learn, grow and expand.鈥� As she reflected on her contribution to fashion, she added, 鈥淚 feel as though I have a responsibility to participate in both the scaling of sustainable retail consumption and in the diversification of fashion, specifically those which are largely business, finance or STEM-based, beyond cis white females as the 鈥榙iversification bar鈥�.鈥� As Carter looks back on her early days, she realizes that her generation was not particularly concerned with diversity, body inclusivity or overall acceptance. For her, and for Hartmann and Engel, it has been a matter of making the fashion industry adapt to its wearers and not the other way around.

听The Faces Leading and Changing the Fashion Industry

What makes a leader?听

When Charla Carter arrived in Paris in the early 80鈥檚 to attend AUP, she began freelancing while simultaneously interning for American听Vogue. She explains that audacity was the key to making the most of her unique (and foreign) profile, considered 鈥渄ifficult to classify鈥� by the French fashion world. Similarly, Engel rejected the 鈥�pas possible鈥� culture well-known in French workplaces and held her head high as she advanced throughout her career with tenacity and tact. In her current position as Director of Talent, she has worked to delegate in a way that shows her employees that she values their contributions, stating 鈥渋t's important for people to feel as though they're part of what the end product ultimately becomes.鈥� As for Genevieve Hartmann, currently Product Lead at Stitch Fix, she too believes in leading as her authentic self, encouraging respectful discussion without aggression or defense, and not dimming her truth if challenged by others. She states, 鈥渋t all comes down to a single word: empathy. Above all: lead with empathy.鈥� In doing so, she believes that we will encourage others to find their place in the field and motivate them to contribute to the advancement of the fashion industry at large.听
