An Australian influencer has caught the attention of her fans for all the wrong reasons. Isabelle Mathers turned up the heat on Thursday in a gallery of images promoting fashion label Crop Shop Boutique on Instagram. As she twisted and turned in the carousel of frames, fans were quick to notice something was awry.
Chair Leg Sparks Editing Accusations
In one image, the 27-year-old brunette bombshell posed in profile, flaunting her trim and taut tummy in chocolate brown athleisurewear. But all eyes were on the dining room set in the background, more specifically, the legs on one chair. They appeared warped, creating a bizarre optical illusion to suggest some digital manipulation had occurred.
Fan Reactions
It didn't take long for her adoring fans to share their thoughts on Reddit. One fan wrote, 'Omg this is insane. I was looking at these photos today and literally showed them to my mum and said how bad I feel about my waist/stomach not being quite as flat.' They continued, 'This has made me feel so much better. These little tweaks to edit are so much more harmful to onlookers than seeing people faceapp themselves.'
Another commented, 'I guarantee you this girl is athletic and has a good figure without these crazy edits. She doesn't need to do this to her pics.' A third added, 'It's sad she feels the need to do this, I've never seen her in real life but I'm sure she's slim and good looking.' One user quipped, 'Photoshopping your body aside, what is with the pose? I bet in 2 decades people will laugh at these weird poses.'
Elsewhere, Isabelle did have her supporters. One fan wrote, 'Really?! I feel like in motion she looks just the same though.'
New Home Purchase
The controversy comes after Isabelle and her boyfriend Harri Musumeci purchased their dream home in Currumbin Valley. Nestled in the Gold Coast Hinterland, the Mediterranean-inspired mansion boasts five bedrooms and includes a media room, office and vast outdoor entertaining space. The home opens out to a resort-style pool and sprawling rainforest.
While it has not been revealed how much the couple paid for the home - with both buyers and sellers not wanting to be 'showy' - the property achieved 'a top price for Currumbin Valley', according to Amir Prestige's Christina James. Speaking of the purchase, Isabelle and Harri revealed that it was love at first sight when entering the home, adding that it had 'an immediate sense of peace', according to realestate.com.au. 'We both looked at each other at one point and had that unspoken, "this is it" moment,' Isabelle gushed, adding that there's a 'real soul' to the home.
