Nina Agdal has publicly criticized a fashion magazine after it pulled a cover story that she was featured in.

The Victoria's Secret model accused the unnamed publication of body shaming, after her agent was sent an email from the magazine, saying that the photoshoot "did not reflect well on [the] talent" and "did not fit their market." Agdal also claimed that the publisher "claimed my look deviated from my portfolio and that I did not fit into the (sample size) samples"—something the model denies.

In a lengthy Instagram post, she expressed her anger and disappointment "at the still very harsh reality of this industry." Agdal said she fluctuates between a size 4 and a size 6.

Adgal wrote:

"Shame on you and thank you to the publisher for reaffirming how important it is to live your truth and say it out loud, no matter who you are or what size. I decided to release an image to draw awareness and support of an issue that's bigger than just myself and affects so many people not just in the fashion industry, but in general, with the goal of bringing women from all over together in a celebration of our bodies. Let's find ways to build each other up instead of constantly finding ways to tear each other down."

Prior to the shoot, Agdal had taken a year break from "the insensitive and unrealistic pressures of this industry" to deal with her anxiety issues. Her post has attracted over 3,000 mostly supportive comments.
