Russian fashion designer Ulyana Sergeenko was accused of racism by Naomi Campbell

Russian designer Ulyana Sergeenko inadvertently formulated a friendly invitation to her show, and this angered representatives of the fashion industry, and dark-skinned supermodel Naomi Campbell called for a boycott of Sergeenko's show at Paris Fashion Week.

Ulyana sent her friend Miroslava Duma an invitation to the show with the inscription "To my niggas in Paris" ("To my Negroes from Paris"), and she posted a photo of the envelope on Instagram.

Street style photographer Adam Katz answered Duma's "story": "Seriously? Why is it 1) to write and 2) to publish? Are you still going to her show?"

Katz reposted the Diet Prada account, which shows examples of plagiarism in fashion, and then Naomi Campbell. The dark - skinned supermodel wrote: "It would be better if it was fake" — and repeated Diet Prada's call to boycott Sergeenko's show. Producer Yana Rudkovskaya, who arrived at the Paris show as a guest, supported her compatriot: "I think Naomi just didn't understand that Juliana was joking by writing "to my niggas in Paris". As far as I know, this is the name of a Kanye West song that is often quoted. I know Ulyana as a positive, intelligent person, racist statements are definitely not for her! There's no need to inflate it all."

In the end, Miroslava Duma deleted the "story" with the scandalous inscription.

Ulyana Sergeenko first held a show at Paris Fashion Week in 2012, in the West she is known for recognizable dresses in the "Russian" style. Sergeenko's show in Paris is supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation.
