They held up their hands while on the Gucci runway to display the message 'mental health is not fashion'
, describing the fashion house's decision to"use the imagery of straight jackets and outfits alluding to mental patients" as"unimaginative" and"offensive."
"As an artist and model who has experienced my own struggles with mental health, as well as family members and loved ones who have been affected by depression, anxiety, bipolar and schizophrenia, it is hurtful and insensitive for a major fashion house such as Gucci to use this imagery as a concept for a fleeting fashion moment," the model said in a statement posted to Instagram.
Gucci posted several images of the fashion show on Twitter, noting that the"utilitarian uniforms" represented"normative dress dictated by society and those who control it."
