A dress with live fish was criticized online (4 photos + 1 video)
American designer Yanedaila recently shared her creation - a dress using live goldfish. Although the girl wrote that the fish were not harmed, she was heavily criticized on social networks.
Recently, American designer Yanedaila published on her page a dress that she created for a client. The bright sequin dress featured a mini aquarium with live goldfish, and the outfit itself was intended for a pregnancy party. Under the photographs, the designer wrote that “not a single fish was harmed” during the creation of the dress, but despite this, she received a barrage of criticism.
Many netizens did not approve of this idea, believing that the fish did not feel well in such an impromptu aquarium. Someone suggested using artificial fish with the same success. According to the designer, this is art, and the client’s desire is above all else for her.
“Yes, art is art. But cruelty to animals always remains so. It doesn’t matter if it’s a dog, a cat, a bird or a fish. The dress could easily be made with artificial fish,” wrote netizens.
"These poor fish need a lot more water,"
"Just disgusting. Using animals as an accessory for some stupid dress is disgusting," another commenter wrote.
Doctors even commented on the situation. According to veterinarian Ben Rosenbloom, this dress is truly an example of animal cruelty. According to a veterinarian, unfortunately, people are often less concerned about the welfare of fish than they are about other animals we keep as pets. He explained that in such an “aquarium” the fish are under incredible stress and will not be able to survive for long.
