Inclusiveness Was the Biggest Fashion Trend in 2016

In 2016, the biggest trend in fashion was inclusiveness. Consider designer Christian Siriano, who not only cast five plus size models in his September Spring 2017 show and dressed supermodel Ashley Graham to sit front row, but also quickly came to the rescue of actress Leslie Jones when other fashion insiders refused to style her for the July “Ghostbusters” premiere. Coach’s creative director Stuart Vevers also pulled a Siriano-like move later this year for the aforementioned Graham when other designers refused to dress her for the model’s January 2017 British Vogue cover, according to editor Alexandra Shulman.
