Several models accuse fashion designer Alexander Wang of sexual assault, reports Women Wear Daily.
Sh*t Model Management posted accounts from several models earlier in the week.
“Alexander Wang is an alleged sexual predator, many male models and trans models have come out and spoken about the alleged sexual abuse that Alexander Wang has inflicted upon them. It is important to show your support to these victims by unfollowing Alexander Wang and boycotting his clothing line,” its post read.
A spokeswoman declined to comment to WWD on Tuesday.
