Remember last holiday season when legendary supermodel Heidi Klum, 50, and her then-19-year-old daughter shut it down in lingerie for Intimissimi’s holiday collection? Well, the mother-daughter duo are back, despite facing backlash from fans.
On Monday, October 14th, Intimissimi shared photos from their new fall/winter campaign. In the images, the AGT judge was seen wearing a burgundy (fall’s it color!) lace lingerie that showed off her fit figure she’s maintained for decades! Beside her is daughter Leni Klum wearing black lace lingerie that has see-through details.
The blonde and brunette duo were happily smiling for the camera, but some fans felt “uncomfortable” looking at the photos, calling the campaign “weird” for choosing a mother-daughter duo. See the photos here!
Fans Call Heidi And Leni Klum's Lingerie Campaign 'Weird'
Users took to Intimissimi's official Instagram page to share their thoughts on the campaign:
"Am I the only one thinking this is a bit weird and inappropriate? Like, who dresses up in lingerie with their mom and prances around taking pics? Don't know... I mean nothing wrong with that; it's like not something that makes sense in an ad when I am looking to buy lingerie and stuff."
"Dude, thats your mom."
"Heidi looks amazing. But why would you pose in lace-revealing lingerie with your mother? Gives me a yucky feeling. And before someone tells me to unfollow, don't! I didn't follow it in the first place. It showed up on my feed. There is no place on this ad where I can block it anyway, so I am commenting."
However, there were fans who saw no problem with the photos and thought they both looked great. One user defended the pair and said:
"Two beautiful ladies! I can't imagine why anyone would be critical of this. People have been modeling underwear forever."
Another wrote, "I am not bothered by this photo. There is nothing unsettling happening here. The underwear isn't suggestive. I don't get what the issue is."
Heidi Klum Reveals The Modeling Advice She Gave To Leni Klum
The former Victoria's Secret angel is especially close to her daughter. They are often seen going on beachy vacations in their bikinis to European destinations and even attending events together.
When Leni decided to pursue modeling, Heidi couldn't have been more happy and decided to support her daughter. She told PEOPLE, "She's doing things that I always dreamed of doing!" The German runway star added, "I told her, 'At the end of the day, you have to be happy with yourself. And don't do anything you don't want to do. It's okay to say no.'"
It definitely helps to be the daughter of a supermodel; as Heidi noted, "It's a fun thing for her. She's not afraid of the cameras because she always come to my sets and shows."
