Many stars in the fashion and entertainment world turned to social media to fire designer Karl Lagerfeld and remember him as "a genius, always generous and personally and professionally friendly", in the case of Victoria Beckham, or "a visionary of our time”, as highlighted by Salma Hayek.

However, it cannot be forgotten that the German has also been a very controversial character throughout his career due to several statements he has made in the media about obesity or immigration and the actress Jameela Jamil, known for her activism in networks to end unrealistic beauty standards, she was one of the first to also remember this facet by sharing on her social networks an article published by the Wear your Voice portal entitled “Anticondolences against Karl Lagerfeld”.

"I am happy that someone says so. Even if it's a little early. A ruthless and contemptuous misogynist should not appear everywhere on the Internet as a saint who is gone too soon, "he wrote.

The article that the actress has shared is all a review of the designer's most controversial statements, such as his surprising ideas about immigration in Europe or the open statement to Focus magazine why he did not like curvy models. “No one wants to see models with curves. It's [just] a bunch of fat moms eating potato chips sitting in front of the television that say slim models are ugly. Fashion is about dreams and illusion,”he declared in 2009.
