Bella and Gigi Hadid's architect father has strenuously denied allegations made by another model that he date raped her.

Mohamed Hadid, 69, said that he met Miranda Vee, 23, several years ago because she claimed to be a fan, but at no point did anything untoward happen.

"When we met it was not a date and not once did I touch her," he was quoted by Tmz.com as saying.

Mr Hadid, who has been engaged to Shiva Safai since 2014, described Vee's claims - made in a lengthy Instagram post - as "totally untrue".

He said that if she wanted to make such serious accusations against him she should have gone to the police instead of using social media, reports Daily Mail.

Mr Hadid said that he is in contact with his attorney with the intention of filing a defamation suit against Vee.

In her Instagram post Vee said that she met fashion designer Paul Marciano at his Guess headquarters where "he sexually harassed me".

Marciano - like Hadid - has strongly denied all allegations of sexual impropriety.

Vee accused Marciano of "passing me on to his friend Mohammed [Hadid] who was going to meet me for 'coffee'.

"I thought it was a professional meeting but It was just me, him & champagne where he date raped me in an apartment.

"All to get a test shoot for Guess."

She said that when she tried to speak out about the incident last year "they found out & made me sign a non-disclosure agreement".

"Why should we have to stay quiet because they have the power?"

Vee's claims follow sexual harassment allegations made against Guess by actress Kate Upton.

"It's disappointing that such an iconic women's brand @GUESS is still empowering Paul Marciano as their creative director," she said tweet using the "Metoo" hashtag.

"He shouldn't be allowed to use his power in the industry to sexually and emotionally harass women."

The "MeToo" hashtag has been used throughout the internet to highlight allegations of rape, sexual assault and harassment in the wake of the exposure of fallen film producer Harvey Weinstein, who has denied string of sexual misconduct claims.

Marciano has said that he is so confident that Upton's allegations are untrue he has urged her to take him to court to set the record straight.

He told TMZ that he cannot figure out what she claims to have against him. and that he won't apologize because he's done nothing wrong.

Marciano insisted he had never touched Upton, and has never even been alone with her.

"If she has a claim, there's one place to tell the truth and that's in court or to the police," he said.
