"The fashion industry has a huge role to play in the Black Lives Matter movement, and I can be better. We can all be better," the lengthy statement began. "It starts with representation, both within our businesses and who we work with externally."
Beckham wrote that while her company has "striven to be inclusive," she has put together a plan to make it even more so.

"This group will help hold the business accountable and ensure our short and long-term actions reflect our learnings."
