One of the fashion industry’s most influential icons, Bethann Hardison has pushed the boundaries of fashion culture as a pioneering Black model, modelling agent, and entrepreneur, remaining at the forefront of progress throughout her career. 
 
Join her and her co-director Frédéric Tcheng for Q&A following a very special UK screening of Invisible Beauty, the acclaimed documentary tracing her impact on fashion from runway shows in the 1970s to roundtables about the lack of racial diversity in the early 2000s. Featuring intimate interviews with luminaries including Naomi Campbell, Zendaya, Iman, Tyson Beckford and more, Invisible Beauty is an absorbing record of the racial evolution of fashion and an original contemplation on the life of an unparalleled trailblazer.
