Victoria's Secret Executive Made Lewd Comment About Bella Hadid's Breasts During Fitting: Report

 

A former executive at Victoria’s Secret reportedly made a lewd comment about Bella Hadid before the brand’s 2018 fashion show.

The incident was one of several allegations of sexual harassment and bullying made against Ed Razek in a recent New York Times report.

Hadid, 23, was being measured for underwear when Razek, watching from a couch in the same room, allegedly declared, ”forget the panties.”

Razek allegedly went on to remark that the real question was whether the TV network would let Hadid walk “down the runway with those perfect” breasts, according to the Times, which also reported that at the same fitting, Razek allegedly touched another model’s crotch over her underwear.

Razek denied the allegations, telling the Times in an email that “the accusations in this reporting are categorically untrue, misconstrued or taken out of context,” adding, “I’ve been fortunate to work with countless, world-class models and gifted professionals and take great pride in the mutual respect we have for each other.”

The annual fashion show was canceled last year amid ongoing controversy about the lack of body diversity on the runway.

Victoria's Secret? Sexism.

[JazzGa 14,623]

In most fashion houses' runway shows, there is never a question about whether to show a nipple if it makes a garment hang properly. The VS show is a farce and a tacky mockery of fashion shows. That being said, I am sure that sexist comments like that happen backstage at every brand's shows. Misogyny still comes with the territory, VS is just the Scapegoat of the Day.

It's a terrible brand. A previous manager there told me they hire based on appearance.  "We want people who look the part."

I had a friend whose fiancé worked at one. She was the only minority that worked there and said it didn’t feel like a safe environment because of the culture being forced of how girls have to look.
