"Mirror selfies" reads the description of a post published by Chiara Ferragni on Instagram , where the influencer shows herself semi-naked in front of a mirror .

But her 11-year-old follower Giulia Dedola , a horse riding champion of Sardinian origins , did not like the photo, who left a comment that went viral in a few hours, collecting more than 20 thousand likes. « What is the message for us little girls? That to get noticed we have to get naked? I don't find it a good message to send », explains the little girl.

And Ferragni's answer, against all expectations, came: « The message for everyone, girls and not, from me is very simple: no one can judge us or make us feel wrong. They taught us that women cannot dare and this is one of the many ways I use to take the freedom that we should all have ».

However, the question and answer with the entrepreneur sparked a controversy that soon became "unmanageable", amidst the compliments of users for the words spent and the anger of those who did not accept what was written by the 11-year-old. " I didn't think a little girl's comment could cause such a stir ," comments her mother Viktoria. Then came the unpleasant comments and inappropriate messages, so much so that Giulia was forced to deactivate the notifications on her social profile.
