Who knew a woman’s dress can cause such controversy?
Last week, a Malay-Australian model Natasha Hudson was criticised by the dress’s designer for wearing his design at a Crystal C White product launch.
This was all because the model is a hijabi and the dress exposed a shoulder.
The Malaysian designer Rizman Nordin, who runs the fashion label Rizman Ruzaini with Wan Ruzaini Wan Jamil, expressed his disappointment to see a Muslim woman wearing his creation as the dress was made for ‘free-hair’ women.
He reportedly said that Hudson had tarnished the brand’s reputation.
The organisers of the beauty launch stood by Hudson, who is their ambassador while Hudson explained that she was merely adhering to instructions and the event’s theme.
