I actually hope Adriana doesn't post about that show because candice did and got some HEAT. She had to turn off her comments. It does make the model look super supportive, I doubt Adriana was made aware of what was going on with alexander. She doesn't need more hate thrown on her especially as a pregnant woman. Atleast if she doesn't post it wouldn't seem like she doesn't care

AGREEE 100% AGREE. I saw the notification that she made a post. I tap on it with my hands shievering. 
Adriana please… don’t.

I think she should post and address it since it happened and people already know it. It was posted a lot. I think she could write a paragraph apologizing and saying she was unaware about allegations against Wang. And how serious SA allegations are. She would be brining light to this as not everyone is aware. And then i think she could write saying that she wanted to show the pic because her reasoning behind coming back to runway was to show that pregnant women can be confident and should embrace their bodies in all stages of their life. Basically she would bring light to allegations and would clear her name of supporting Wang whilst also getting to write about body positivity for pregnant woman. And the trolls who wanna comment about her belly would look like fools.

@lucyford This is very optimistic but wouldn't work. It would be hard to make people believe she was unaware about the situation. So, if you ask me, not posting anything related to him is the best option for her. 

 She doesn't need no more negativity, i usually don't say this but hope she doesn't post.

I think it's very possible to have been unaware. I didn't know and alot of people don't know about it either. Those who seem to know are those who are fashion fans that follow all that. She took part in it. That's said and done. People who know and are mad about it already saw. It was posted a lot. Imo, brining awareness to the allegation for those who don't know is the best way to fix this as much as possible. By staying silent, she is still appearing to support him as she was there and participated. Posting about it like some of the modes, is just doubling down on it. While doing something like I said, is trying to fix it as much as possible imo.

Some people speculate that she is pregnant with twins because the caption says "with my 3 loves".🤔🤔

But maybe she means baby, Andre and herself, right?

I assumed this was a mistake because maybe she wrote "3" cause she was counting 3 people (including herself). Because her mom said she now has 5 grandkids in a post (her girls, Andres kids, and the new baby)

agree, its only gonna make things harder for her. She is pregnant she doesn't need that extra stress or negativity. I noticed she didn't even like a picture from that event, so she probably really didn't know. She should just leave it alone and not post anything. She has other good work coming up to post instead

Alexander Wang has been one of the most famous designers in the industry for years, I sincerely doubt that someone who is part of the industry isn't aware of the accusations, considering that we are talking about very serious accusations (more than 10 models), which Wang himself has apologized and that has caused him to have been away for more than a year. Honestly, I'm disappointed with Adriana, Alessandra and Candice, already very famous models with a lot of money, they didn't need to work for him at this point in their careers.

 

I don't know if it's better for her to post something about her apologizing for her or not to post anything about her, I don't want her to be insulted, although I understand that many feel disappointed with her.

I wouldn't say Adriana must have known. Adriana never associates herself with people from the industry and other models unless she is working. She is not one I expect to know majority of what is going on in her industry...

exactly. Adriana barely even has model friends. She is not one of those models when someone in fashion dies, she's all sad making posts about them.  Its common knowledge, that Adriana is not that model. Like when Patrick died, she worked with him multiple times for iconic projects but still did not comment on his death. Thats how less she cares about the people she works with in the industry. So I wouldn't doubt she actually did not know or was not told.

 

We sit here on the daily complaining about Adriana's lack of PR compared to other models and its questionable how much awareness she has about the industry. Its RARE a model is like that but Adriana is surely one of them and no model thinks to check a designers track list before they accept an offer to work for them. Either she knew about it naturally or she didn't. Adriana is the type of model to not be aware, especially when his victims are males. She probably doesn't even know a model personally that has bad stories about him

They don't even wait for a rational explanation or for an apology, they wait to attack. And also this is too risky, they probably won't believe her and situation will only get worse.

She is still following AW on insta btw.

A rational explanation is not knowing. Helping bring awareness to the allegations is better than ignoring it after she participated imo. It seems some of you are forgetting that this was posted alot. And alot of people already know she did the show. Not everyone is aware Wang was accused of SA though.

@laeteita I'm with you on this one, they are the same assholes who were rude for her belly abs, they don't deserve even a second of her attention, let alone a post to try to defende herself.

agreed, the world, especially on social media and internet is very screwed up today. People are sooo damn sensitive and sensitive about the wrong things. They go overboard with shaming and all that. You gotta walk on egg shells around people these days and I would rather Adriana just keep it pushing because no matter what she tries to say, they not gonna accept it because its been done. But the fact that she doesn't post about it shows, she does actually care about the problem

I haven't got any chance yet to check some fashion sources that usually have backstage photos of shows but according to Weibo, some fashion sources boycotts Alexander Wang and he didn't even let photograhers and journalist to the backstage. If this is true, we won't get any backstage pics.

Oh God, don't make it even worse, Adriana, this is just too wrong on so many levels. She really has the worst management of social networks or the worst team that advises her. Disgusting.

And this is why I am sure they did not bother telling her and she didn't bother checking. She said this yesterday and thats probably when she found/realized the heat that was coming

 

I can't take them seriously when they want to stress out and give hate to a pregnant woman because of what SOMEBODY else did. They are no better than her if they really care and I don't think they do. Her being at the show wasn't it, and publicly using a pregnant woman as a punching bag because of what someone else did is not neither.
