After glamming it up for Vivienne Westwood, Togolese-French model hotness David Agbodji closed the Dolce & Gabbana FW 2011 collection in Milan.
This is the third season Agbodji closed a collection in Milan. David A opened and closed Calvin Klein's S/S 2010 show in Milan and since then his nude billboards and short-shorts have branded CK. David goes "after five" AFTER THE JUMP ...
Just from the image alone, I was able to count at least 20 White Faces with just one Token Black Face.
With all the gains we've made on this planet, it's evident that we have quite a distance to travel.
*sighs*

David was the only black man in the entire show. Dolce & Gabbana needs to do better.

that IS why we have to CREATE our own so we can cast "our own"

David wasn't the only black man in the show, he also didn't close the show, he opened it. Someone else closed it(he was black, though)
Also, there was at least one asian, xeron.
