For the past few years, the beauty standards that focus on skin colour and body proportion have become a proper debate in society. The major issue occurring in the fashion industry is the racist beauty ideals that favour light skin tones and discriminate against darker skin tones as well as the fact that women are still judges by the body size. Not to mention why some women prefer to use skin whitening products, diet pills, and detox teas just to be fitted with unrealistic beauty standards.

In this week's episode, we interviewed @marcella.margareth as the Founder of Semilir, an Indonesian Sustainable Local Fashion Brands, and Irene Atalia @ireneatalia, who previously worked at Female Daily, Indonesia's most extensive and No. 1 Beauty Destination. They will share their perspective and experiences towards the Indonesian Beauty Stigma and how Fashion and Beauty Brands have started to eliminate this stigma by implementing diversity and inclusivity.
