Prabal Gurung has always aimed for diversity on his runway by studying his models' various backgrounds as part of the casting process. "What I'm living is the American dream. From the collection that we do, to the casting that we do, we talk about the heritage of the models. I'm interested in and intrigued by their background, by their ethnicity, their experience," he told the NY Times. This season, he was inspired by heritages from around the world, crafting strong, colourful looks that come from his "globetrotting suitcase." There will never be just one, single type of model on Prabal's runway.
