Hailee Steinfeld and Mui Mui alike have sparked criticism for her use in these new campaigns in relation to the fact she is just 14 years old. They have been accused of using models so young, that the women who can afford to buy designer clothing cannot relate to them. And even though it is clear that she has not been dressed up to look like an adust, as so often happens with teenage models, it is hard to see that the 14 year old will convincingly sell designer clothes to grown women. After a leading role in True Grit, red carpet appearances led to Mui Mui becoming the teenagers favourite designer and has been seen wearing the label on a number of occassions.
Does age of the model really matter to such a well known high fashion brand? Or will the extra publicity be more beneficial and simply a good PR stunt?
