Natasha Hudson expressed sadness over being criticised by the designers of her
controversial shoulder-baring white dress for the way she was styled to wear it
at a recent event that had since caused much backlash from netizens.
The
actress, who spoke to the media about the issue recently, stated that she felt
that the statement made by the fashion duo Rizman Ruzaini was unfair and
personal, though stated that it could have been made because they didn’t know
who bought it at first.
“But it’s possible that they made the statement
because I am not an A-list artiste who has repeatedly worked with them. But
whatever it is, they should be respectful of customers and clients who bought
their product. The dress was bought on a discounted price, not sponsored by
them,” she said.

Natasha expressed her belief that the designers would have sold their dresses
for profit without questioning the intention of buyers if not for the
controversy.
“It’s not like I never knew them. I’ve worn clothes from their
brand before. It’s not like they couldn’t ask me about the exact situation
before giving their criticism. I think that the comment they made about the
dress not suitable for a hijab-wearing individual was incorrect. If you google
it, there have been dresses that they made for A-listers that had shown their
body shape or showed their neck when they wore it with turban. What do they
think of that?”
However, at the same time, the actress admitted that she
made a mistake in the decision on how to wear the said dress, stating that she
never thought that it would invite backlash and controversy.
“I can
honestly say that it was not a planned publicity to sell products,” she added.
