She's Not Afraid to Speak Out - Smalls confronted fashion's apparent racism problem head on in the January 2014 issue of Elle, her first U.S. cover for the mag. "People hide behind the word aesthetic. They say, ‘Well, it’s just that designer’s aesthetic.’ But when you see 18 seasons in a row and not one single model outside a certain skin color?" she said. "There are people in the industry who are advocates, who support diversity. And there are people who do not. I don’t get it. Beauty is universal. These doors have to open." Amen!  (Photo: Elle Magazine, January 2014)
