Law Roach and Naomi Campbell on Instagram; Rihanna at New York Fashion WeekLaw Roach has some thoughts about what people are wearing — and he's not afraid to share them.
The image architect shared a video to Instagram over the weekend with supermodel Naomi Campbell where the two joked about being "demure." They were dressed in what they wore to the Sept. 6 Alaïa show during New York Fashion Week, leading commenters to believe that the video was filmed right after the show and posted later.
While playing up the "demure" and "mindful" trend, the two volleyed back and forth, saying that they "don't go to the shows like the other girls."
In the video, Roach says, "We don't come with our tatas out or our chichis out. Very demure."
"Very mindful," Campbell replies, before they continue the back and forth. Campbell then adds, "It's not about showing yourself, it's about showing the clothes."
Roach wrote in the caption, "Just touched down in London Town 🇬🇧 can't wait to be demure with my favorite Icon @naomi" and also tagged Jools Lebron, who created the demure and mindful trend.
While Roach and Campbell's back-and-forth seems fairly innocuous, almost all of the comments immediately assumed that the pair was talking about Rihanna, who was also in attendance at the Alaïa show, wearing a sparkling dress that showed plenty of décolleté.

Several comments pointed out that Rihanna "ignored" Campbell and Roach when she arrived at the New York Fashion Week show. Videos on social media show Rihanna entering the show and walking past the pair, who were seated together, after greeting Edward Enninful.
Others called the Roach and Campbell's video "thirsty" for attention and accused the pair of shaming a fellow Black person. However, it's worth noting that at no point did either Roach or Campbell say who they were speaking about, if anyone at all.
Reps for Roach and Campbell did not return PEOPLE's request for comment.

Shortly after the Instagram comments blew up, Roach took to X (formerly Twitter) with another video, seemingly to set the record straight. In the video, he says, "Y'all always think something has to be something. But something ain't always something. Sometimes something is just nothing. So stop trying to make nothing into something. You know what? Y'all need to get some business." He captioned the post, "Can Yall just stop making [s---] up?"
Again, the comments lit up with people claiming the stylist was now attempting to backtrack after being called out, with people not believing what he was saying. One person wrote, "I hate when people post things on the internet and then gets mad when the internet responds?"
Multiple people opined that Roach and Campbell "knew" what they were doing with their Instagram post.
Rihanna has not addressed the social media posts.
