Jimmy Choo's latest ad campaign featuring model and actor Cara Delevingne has been slammed by social media as "tone deaf" and "regressive".
The ad shows Delevingne walking down a New York City street in a short red dress and sparkly black high heel boots.
As she passes by a man,
he whistles at her and says, "Nice shoes, lady" as she smiles and walks by — and people are not impressed.
Many are claiming that the ad is sexist as it seems to glorify cat calling and are lashing out at both Jimmy Choo and Delevingne over it.
