They held up their hands while on the Gucci runway to display the message 'mental health is not fashion'

, describing the fashion house's decision to"use the imagery of straight jackets and outfits alluding to mental patients" as"unimaginative" and"offensive."

"As an artist and model who has experienced my own struggles with mental health, as well as family members and loved ones who have been affected by depression, anxiety, bipolar and schizophrenia, it is hurtful and insensitive for a major fashion house such as Gucci to use this imagery as a concept for a fleeting fashion moment," the model said in a statement posted to Instagram.

Gucci posted several images of the fashion show on Twitter, noting that the"utilitarian uniforms" represented"normative dress dictated by society and those who control it."

Grow up

Good for her to decide to say something by displaying her message while on the runway instead of pulling out of the fashion show without doing anything about it. Mental Health issues are extremely painful for the person being affected by it as well as their family members.

Lol.. these headlines are getting more comical by the second. Zoolander is going to save the world... LOLOL

Snowflakes

Mental health is another aspect of life like sexual health. WE shied away from talking about sex for ages and those who did were provocative. Now with mental health, you're labeled damaged. We should stop with the LABELS, or Name Calling It's the root of most problems.

They should have written on their hands: 'CNN is not a news organization' 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Reminds me of that guys protesting the National Anthem while being awarded for playing for the national team.

We owe so many good ideas to fashion. To be only beautiful with a size 0 for example. It is causing a lot of pain, hurt and selfdistruction.

*they* 🤣🤣

Good on her for making a stand against this insulting ridiculous idea that was dressed up supposedly as a “fashion “ statement!

Progressives are turning on the Liberals.
