Dior's photography

Because her apology was insincere and perfunctory.

One of Man Chen's works has aroused heated discussion recently. When Dior toured the world, he showed the publicity photos taken by Man Chen for Dior. However, this photo is difficult for many people in China to accept. The model in the photo has no aesthetic feeling, and her makeup and expression are a little gloomy. She also wears fingernails from the Qing Dynasty, and her shape is very ugly and weird. Some netizens even complained that this photo seems to be from the Japanese Olympic Games? Peripheral goods? . This promo quickly caused great controversy on the Internet. Not only netizens were very dissatisfied, but even the official media stood up and accused this photo of demonizing us Asian women.

Why did Man Chen do this? I deliberately leafed through Man Chen's previous works. I found that it is normal for Man Chen to take pictures of our domestic stars, but it is ugly to take some works with China elements for western countries. Many foreigners think that we China people have squints, flat noses and high cheekbones, but Man Chen deliberately took these ugly photos to cater to western aesthetic concepts in order to gain higher popularity and recognition in western fashion.

Chen Manfa apologized, but netizens didn't buy it. At the beginning of the apology statement, Man Chen wrote: I'm sorry to stand up now. ? This undoubtedly made the netizen even more angry, because she knew that she had made a mistake, but instead of apologizing for her problem at the first time, she closed the comment. Although Man Chen made an apology statement, it was only a few simple words, using her innocence as an excuse, which meant that she didn't realize what her real problem was. She emphasizes that her early artistic perception has not yet formed, but we can also see from Man Chen's previous photos taken for the major stars and herself that her aesthetics are normal and her characters are beautiful. But in her international brand Dior's photography, only the ugly and gloomy side is shown, which is unacceptable.
