Victoria's Secret Apologizes for This Outfit

Not Cool

Victoria's Secret has formerly apologized for its racy Native American outfit worn by 20-year-old supermodel Karlie Kloss during their Wednesday runway show in New York City, and says that the look will be cut out of the televised broadcast of the show.

The look in question featured a Native American floor-length headdress as well as fringe-adorned brown lingerie and heels.

"We are sorry that the Native American headdress replica used in our recent fashion show has upset individuals. We sincerely apologize as we absolutely had no intention to offend anyone," Victoria's Secret said in a statement via their Facebook and Twitter. "Out of respect, we will not be including the outfit in any broadcast, marketing materials nor in any other way."

Karlie herself has also taken to Twitter to apologize.

"I am deeply sorry if what I wore during the VS Show offended anyone. I support VS's decision to remove the outfit from the broadcast," she recently tweeted.

Though of course, Victoria's Secret and Karlie aren't the only ones getting some heat for their questionable portrayals of Native American culture -- No Doubt recently pulled their video for Looking Hot in reaction to criticism over its depiction of Native Americans.

November is Native American Heritage Month.
