Alek Wek at Betsey Johnson FW 1998

In 1998, while walking in a Betsey Johnson runway show, she threw off the blonde wig that she’d been styled in. In a recent interview with the BBC, she reflected on the moment saying, “that wig was not just about me taking it off to make a scene. It was a time that I was just starting in fashion, to work. And the one thing that I told my agents was if you are going to represent me, I’m not going to be a gimmick and be in for a couple of seasons. You’re going to take it all or leave it.” Today that moment has become a very literal symbol of rebelling against a European standard of beauty.
