US Vice President Kamala Harris has been called out online after wearing luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana, who many label as "problematic".
The fashion brand attracted controversy over clothing and advertising seen to be racially offensive, including an ad where an Asian model is seen attempting to eat pizza and spaghetti with chopsticks.
The brand also came under fire for launching a campaign featuring models mingling with poor Chinese people in underdeveloped parts of the country, prompting complaints that the brand was deliberately presenting their country as a third-world nation.
So when the forward-thinking new Vice-President wore a wool jumper from the Italian fashion house during lunch with President Joe Biden; a grey checked blazer and trouser suit when swearing in the Treasury secretary, and a chevron jumper when Biden signed executive orders in the White House - many were outraged.
