What does #MeToo mean for models? Mending the ways of fashion, Charli Howard meets a change-making model on a mission to prevent harassment and abuse in the industry. Kristina Romanova is a successful model turned tech-entrepreneur. She co-founded the digital support network Humans of Fashion in 2018, after a friend and fellow model was sexually abused on set. A non-profit app and website, it connects users with pro-bono lawyers and therapists to offer legal advice and therapy on a range of issues, from sexual misconduct to mental health. Two years on from the movement that swept through Hollywood, how much has changed since the fashion industry experienced its own #MeToo moment in 2018?
