Clin d’oeil has been nominated for a 2016 IMAGE/in award. The 6th annual celebration recognizes Quebec businesses that support healthy, diverse representations of the human body in fashion, the media and advertising.

The TVA-owned publication has spent the year featuring non-photoshopped, real-life women of all sizes, origins and ages in each issue.
 
"The Clin d'œil team took up this challenge a year ago in order to break beauty stereotypes," Lucie Dumas, vice-president and publisher of TVA Publications, said. "They are proud to be trailblazers and to have launched the very first fashion magazine that is committed to encouraging diversity in every issue. This initiative by Clin d'œil is making a tangible difference when it comes to changing representations of women in the fashion media. Diversity is now part of the brand's DNA."

Readers can vote for Clin d’oeil online. Voting began on Feb. 29 and will run until April 3. The winner will be announced on April 27.

On March 3 the magazine will commemorate the first anniversary of this socially conscious achievement with a special issue.
