Back in 2018, Willow was asked about her observation about the beauty industry becoming more representative. At the time, the 18-year-old told Glamour magazine, "I feel like it's a beautiful thing and any effort towards changing the idea of what beauty is and broadening it and making it all inclusive is amazing."
As for Stuart Weitzman, the designer has previously teamed up with Gigi Hadid for its 2016 fall campaign as well as to create two exclusive footwear styles. In an interview with Elle magazine, the model praised the designer, "Stuart, he's a genius first of all, but he really works on mathematical equations on how to make a shoe fit a foot. He makes a shoe people will actually like to wear."
