Fans went wild over her sparkly pink top

Despite fans' excitement, one fan called out Gemma for not using a more "realistic" size 18 model to show off her designs.

Responding to the comment, which was sent to Gemma via Direct Message, the star said on her Stories: "We genuinely cannot win when it comes to the female body.

"With every range, I'm either not making them small enough, not making them big enough, or not making them ok for women who train.

"It's exhausting trying to constantly defend a woman and her body. I am a size 10 and almost 74kg which on paper may not seem 'realistic' but it's true.

"That's my body. Lauren is a size 18. That's her body and labelling it 'not realistic' compared to other size 18 women is part of the problem."

She concluded by saying: "Ladies… yours, mine, OUR bodies are all different. And the majority of people I know are just trying their best to feel good and be happy about it. Please don't let the opinions of others get in the way."
