Influencer's risqué outfit at F1 event brutally roasted online
An influencer has sparked controversy online after people claimed she made a massive fashion faux pas while attending the Monaco Grand Prix. Lily Chee, a model and social media star with 1.6 million Instagram followers, was at an F1 event held by luxury Swiss watch brand, TAG Heuer, when the incident occurred. In photos shared to her Instagram stories, the 21-year-old posed alongside her friend and fellow model, Blanca Soler, and another woman at the exclusive bash – held after the Grand Prix of Monaco officially kicked off on Sunday in Monte Carlo. The three socialites wore formal black dresses and smiled for photos on the boat's deck. While it appeared to be a classy affair, the back of Chee's dress caught the attention of the internet as it had a daringly low-cut back, which left the top part of her bottom exposed. Dozens of users took to Reddit to discuss the controversial outfit choice after someone shared a screenshot of the post with the caption, 'Why is her a** crack out?' Some said that it reminded them of a 'plumber's crack', while others described the move as 'classless' and 'trashy', particularly at such a luxurious event. Another person suggested that Chee needed some 'real friends' who would have alerted her to the fashion mishap at the time. 'Pull your pants up,' said another critic. However, some supporters praised the look, with one person on Instagram commenting, 'Love the dress'. 'All the dresses are so unique and glamorous, it feels like a James Bond movie to me,' another wrote. 'Lily's dress is my favourite'. 'Killing it,' said a third. Yet others couldn't overlook Chee flashing the flesh and said they struggled to understand the 'exposed crack trend', which is often associated with red-carpet looks but more recently has seeped into mainstream fashion. As stars began embracing the ' butt cleavage ' look, from Katy Perry to Noah Cyrus, New York Magazine 's The Cut declared that 'cracks are back' last year, and people continue to support this style well into 2025. People decreed a couple of months ago that butt cracks are the trend for the northern hemisphere's spring, following Zoë Kravitz baring her bum cheeks at the Oscars after-party. Aussie model Jess King explained that the trend celebrates the female form and says she 'loves' seeing a variety of women in all shapes and sizes adopt the look. 'I feel empowered when I am embracing my body, meeting life with a smile and in an outfit that champions my curves,' she told in October. Fashion designer Donny Gallela also agreed that clothing which allows people to highlight their natural features can boost confidence. 'Style is about expressing your personality and the clothes you wear should make you feel confident, and if a client feels empowered by showing a bit of skin or enhancing their curves, I'm all for helping them achieve that,' he added.

Dr Kate Adams shames Married at First Sight's Carina Mirabile for embarrassing fur coat lie at Australian Fashion Week
Dr Kate Adams has taken a break from working with anti-poaching teams in Africa to weigh in on Carina Mirabile's Australian Fashion Week fur coat faux pas. The Real Housewives of Sydney and Bondi Vet star has joined animal rights activists in shaming the Married at First Sight bride for opting to wear a real fur coat to Australian Fashion Week — then lie about it. Carina, 31, turned heads on Day Two of Sydney 's streetwear fashion parade as she arrived to Carriageworks wearing the nude SKIMS 'Ultimate Butt' bodysuit and a voluminous fur coat. The season 12 bride, who was matched with controversial French groom Paul Antoine on MAFS, was quick to tell her outraged fans that the coat was 'fake' and made of faux fur after she posted the look to Instagram. 'Yes this is my own 'fit. I bought this fur coat from New York in Brooklyn and I've got SKIMS on underneath and literally pantyhose stockings,' Carina told Daily Mail Australia. Unfortunately for Carina, the original owner of the fur coat commented on her post and revealed it is in fact, 'a real vintage fur coat,' that was sold to Carina on Facebook Marketplace. Kate, 43, shared the news to her Stories on Saturday and praised Bailey (AKA @warriorforanimals) for bringing it to her attention. 'I'm going to leave this here,' Kate began. 'More evidence that the universe will always get you in the arse if you lie.' The reality TV alum offered some advice to the fledgling influencer in her post, as Carina she prepares to launch her own podcast. 'The correct way to fix this mess is to say, "Sorry, big mistake. Won't be an a**hat next time,' Kate said. She tagged animal activist Bailey, adding, 'What a good human you are.' Australian Fashion Week officially banned the use of real furs, exotic skins, and animal feathers in 2025. Bailey, who runs the account Warrior For Animals, shared images of the reality TV star in the ankle-length 'vintage' coat, claiming she 'defied' the event's no animal skin rule. Carina has since taken to her own social media page to assure followers the shaggy brown coat that she said she purchased in Brooklyn is actually faux fur Carina's denials have also done little to quell the online backlash about her wearing the coat Carina took to her social media to to assure followers the shaggy brown jacket, that she says she purchased in Brooklyn, is actually faux fur. Carina has claimed multiple times on social media that her coat is not real fur, but it has done little to quell the online backlash. 'It's not real fur FYI and my stylist uses vegan products,' Carina captioned an image of her look. On Chattr, she added: 'It's not real fur, bought from a vintage store in New York. 'I wouldn't wear anything that's not ethically sourced.' But in a surprising twist, a woman claiming to be the original owner of the coat then commented on Carina's post, alleging 'Temu Kim' lied about its origin. 'It's actually a real vintage fur coat, it's not fake fur,' she wrote. 'I know because she bought that coat from me off [Facebook] marketplace several years ago. I was the one who bought it in NYC and it was stated in my ad. Funny that she lied about it.' Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Carina for further comment, as well as the Australian Fashion Council to verify any complaints made. Unfortunately for Carina, a woman claiming to be the original owner of the fur coat commented on her post and revealed it is in fact, 'a real vintage fur coat,' that was sold to Carina on Facebook Marketplace AFW banned all wildlife-derived materials, including fur, exotic animal skins and feathers, from being used on runways this year and in the future. The new policy came into immediate effect, making the ongoing AFW, held from 12 to 16 May, the first edition to fully exclude wildlife materials from its runways. The Australian Fashion Council's new policy was developed alongside Collective Fashion Justice and World Animal Protection. It comes following years of activism calling for cruel materials to be excluded from the show. 'Well done - the ban made me cheer (especially after fur situation last season),' Kate wrote in another post last week, as she made a reference to her on-screen feud with her Real Housewives of Sydney co-star Victoria Montano over the subject.
