BACKGRID And it didn’t stop there. For another after-party, Ratajkowski wore a very short sheer purple sequin micro dress.

Instagram While many celebrities chose to wear lingerie as part of their ensembles to the Met Gala and its subsequent after parties, EmRata has spoken thoughtfully about how she feels her sexualized image contributes to the culture at large.
In an October interview with Harper’s Bazaar , Ratajkowski discussed whether she feels responsible for how her image online may affect young women. She said, “I completely understand that sexualizing myself and putting images out into the world that reinforce the beauty standard is difficult. I’m not trying to shake accountability. But I also don’t think I would have sold as many books had I not done that. That’s the way the world works. I mean, we all participate in systems that we don’t agree with.” She added that she wasn’t sure that she could really change a systemic problem. “I don’t know [if there’s anything more I can do],” she said. “If I personally stopped posting pictures of myself, would that change anything?”
“I want to be able to have fun with how I present myself in the world without feeling like I’m a bad feminist or a good feminist,” Ratajkowski added. “Duh. I don’t want to be a part of your club if you don’t want to have me. It’s fine!” Senior News and Strategy Editor
