A fitness coach has recounted the embarrassing moment she was told she had a ‘belly bulge’ by another model while on a photoshoot. ’re the one rocking it as a supermodel, I think you’re the one we’ll be listening to! I’ll be more accepting of my body because of it. It’s keeping you alive! Commenters were quick to praise Emily’s inspiring message and share their shock at her colleague’s remark. The body confident queen reminded her legions of fans that it is natural for women not to have a flat lower tummy ‘because we have a uterus, we have other essential organs and we have some essential fat to protect our reproductive system’. After the girl said that I didn’t finish eating my lunch because I freaked out and felt extremely insecure for the rest of the shoot,’ the 36-year-old mum-of-two wrote in the caption. Your body is amazing just as is it – EVEN when you’re bloated! This is such a good message! It’s that time of the month and I get very bloated – a lot of retention and cramps that come along with it – aren’t we lucky, us women? I was super lean, had visible abs and yet the lower part of my belly stuck out a little,’ she said. Emily said that comment made her become ‘obsessed’ with trying to get rid of her ‘stubborn belly fat’. Thank you, Emily!’ said a second. Thank you!! I was just checking today my lower belly and thought of ways how could I get rid of it/make it smaller. No matter what I did I couldn’t get rid of it. What an idiot she was! And how damaging that can be to someone too.. Will just pull high-waist jeans instead! We’re beautiful the way we are bloated or not,’ Emily finished. Emily’s post included a picture of her lean figure from 2013 when the mean model made the jab along with a video of her telling her 2.5million followers that it is normal to not to have a flat stomach. After reading your post, I feel much better!

PARIS, July 5 (Reuters) – Italian fashion house Valentino took to the Chateau de Chantilly, north of Paris, for its fall haute couture outing, where designer Pierpaolo Piccioli presented a romantic lineup of updated styles for the contemporary red carpet set. The label said the choice of location was aimed at seizing on an age-old symbol of exclusivity, and giving it new meaning as a “forum for equality and openness”. Models made their way slowly down a vast, stone staircase and around a fountain in the castle’s formal garden, to the melancholic voice of art-pop singer Anohni. For his bow, Piccioli walked out with his team, all in atelier lab coats, holding hands. The Paris haute couture shows this week, featuring labels Giorgio Armani Prive, Kering-owned Balenciaga, LVMH-owned Dior, as well as American fashion house Thom Browne wind up on Thursday. The show opened with model Kaia Gerber, Cindy Crawford’s daughter, in a white shirt, left unbuttoned down to the midriff, and worn with loose jeans. For men, there were loose suits and a gold overcoat. They wore gowns that framed their bodies with plunging, v-shaped necklines and cutouts at the hips, while skirts were slit to the thighs. Topping off the look were huge, crystal chandelier earrings and metallic, pointy toed flats adorned with bows.
