Ukrainian feminist group Femen have always caused several controversies over their topless protests – but one model has had it enough with them, and showed it with an accidental punch. Hollie-May Saker was walking for the Nina Ricci SS2014 fashion show at Paris Fashion Week when two Femen members stormed the catwalk and one of them grabbed Hollie’s arm.
“I punched her – I didn’t mean to but she grabbed my arm and I just wanted to get her off me. I was the 19th girl out of the catwalk and I could hear screaming behind me,” said the model (source). “As she grabbed by arm she lifted by skirt exposing me – I pulled my arm back with such force that I landed a punch square on her nose.”
The two intruders were half-naked and had sentences ‘Model don’t go to brothel’ and ‘Fashion Dictaterror’ written in black ink on their torsos. A security guard came to the stage just seconds later and had a bit of a hard time dragging the two radical feminists away.
The 18-year-old model added, “My Scouseness came out a bit but I wish it had come out a bit more. Thinking about it now I wish I’d pushed them both off the stage because they ruined my favourite show.”
