Reaves’ new clothing line too racy?

Emily Grace Reaves’ new clothing line has been criticised for being racy.

Washington: Disney child star Emily Grace Reaves’ new clothing line has been criticised for being too racy.
The Ooh! La La, Couture designed by the 8-year-old star along with Miley Cyrus’ little sister Noah, boasts “versatile styles that can be worn with sweet ballerina slippers, casual sneakers or paired with lace stockings and boots for more of a rock and roll look.” Noah has also helped promote the collection in photos and online videos. Gossip blogger Perez Hilton called the news of line`s release to the apocalypse, while the Daily Mail called the designs "perverse." Promotional materials for the line feature the girls in grown up looks and poses. In one image of Greaves and Cyrus, the girls are seen surrounding what appears to be a stripper pole, and another shows the children posing in leopard mini-skirts that bear a striking resemblance to an adult lingerie piece from LingerieDiva.com. According to Celebrity stylist Shaye Strager, the fabric and designs are simply "too racy and sexy for the target audience." "Capitalizing on celebrity style has been a huge hot-button issue for fashion and there should be something special about ``coming of age`` and being able to wear more grown-up clothing," Fox News quoted her as saying. "But typically, girls begin to experiment with this in high school ... because these girls are so young, I think they are crossing the line here." "Bottom line, the clothing is not appropriate for children of that age," Strager added. ANI
