A new lingerie ad featuring model Heidi Klum and her daughter Leni has ignited quite the discourse over social media this week.
Klum took to Instagram to share photos of the ad, captioning her post:
"Together with [Intimissimi] we celebrate women; the love and support between a mother and her daughter; and how confident, beautiful and happy lingerie can make you feel."
"Check out our favorite styles online and in all Intimissimi stores and explore 'the art of Italian lingerie'.”
She tagged her daughter Leni Klum (@leniklum).
While Klum turned off the comments on her post, many turned to the brand to express their feelings of Klum in a lingerie photoshoot with her 18-year-old daughter.
