Reframing Fashion is the name of British Vogue's May edition. It features people with a wide range of disabilities. It was the brain child of their Editor and Chief Edward Enninful. Since taking on the role in 2017, he's changed the trajectory of the magazine to become more inclusive and representative. He worked on the issue with Sinéad Burke who runs disability consultancy firm, Tilting the Lens. One of the featured stars is the UK's first blind and black female barrister, Jessikah Inaba, who tells us about becoming a model for the world's biggest fashion magazine. For the first time in British Vogue's history, the magazine will be available in braille and audio formats. We also spoke to Kimberly Burrows - a blind artist, keen fashionista and now a first time consumer of the magazine because of its accessible formats.
