The photos that the designer published caused outrage
Victoria Beckham received harsh criticism from her followers on social media after she promoted her new clothing line using models that critics say look like a "sick" person. The 45-year-old fashion designer shared a series of images to promote her fall winter 2019 collection. In two of the photos posted, Beckham used a model modeling the iconic original dress worn by the Duchess of Sussex during a royal ceremony.
After the publication made by Beckham, many users noticed that the model looked incredibly thin in her dress, so they decided to leave comments at the bottom of the photo criticizing the image for promoting false ideals of beauty. "#Feedthemodel she would die if she decided to skip another meal. Sad to see a fashion icon like you promoting unhealthy-looking models," wrote one user. "Fear on sight. Scarier to think about how sick she must be. It really doesn't look good, I'm in awe of this photo!” another Instagram user commented.
Meanwhile, other users continued to criticize the example she was setting for younger people, including her daughters, who followed her work in fashion. "I can't believe this woman has a young daughter, what an example she sets by using models like these who don't look good in health...she needs to use other body types in her campaign! Some that are real," a third user said of Beckham's post. "Images like this are what contribute to disordered eating, totally irresponsible and another example of how we need to gain awareness," another person concluded.
In the face of criticism, Beckham's representatives did not respond to media requests for comment. For her part, this isn't the first time Beckham has faced criticism from her followers and fans for promoting models who look extremely skinny. According to Fox News sources, the fashion designer previously received a similar backlash after sharing photos of a model looking extremely skinny for her sunglasses campaign launched in 2018. In 2015, Beckham publicly promised that her agents would be making sure that the models used were completely healthy women.
Others decided to celebrate their achievements
Despite the different accusations made by many of her followers, others, on the contrary, praise the work that the designer has done on the subject of fashion and style with each of her recent collections. Even different movie and music stars have left her comments in support of her great work as a designer. But it's not just about her professional career, Beckham has also been celebrated for the relationship she has had with her husband over the years. David and Victoria Beckham have been married for 20 years, and on their wedding anniversary, they decided to celebrate it in a very romantic way.
For the occasion, according to various sources, the couple ventured on a walk through the city of Paris to end their walk with a private tour of the Palace of Versailles. “The most incredible visit on a very special day. Thank you to everyone who made it memorable, and thank you to all of our family and friends for supporting us. I can't believe 20 years have passed! », The 45-year-old designer wrote on that occasion along with a photo of her published on her social networks. For his part, the 44-year-old former soccer player also sent a message of thanks for his incredible ride.
