Supermodel Gigi Hadid speaks out about body-shaming on social media backstage at Giambattista Valli's Spring 2016 Collection in Paris. She talks to us the impact of the bold viral post that she recently shared with her 7.2 million Instagram followers. Hadid had received numerous negative comments on the popular social media app, with some criticizing her curves, slightly jumpy walk and reality show pedigree. On September 28th she defended herself and with a passionate, heartfelt post on her Instagram feed: “No, I don’t have the same body type as the other models in shows…I’m a hard worker that’s confident in myself, one that came at a time where the fashion industry was ready for a change.” We caught up with Gigi backstage at Spring 2016 Paris Fashion Week to find out more about her empowering message for women everywhere.  Reported, Executive Produced and Directed by Karen Morrison.
