One cheek wonder: Photoshop fail. Photo: Victoria's Secret Facebook
Everyone loves a good Photoshop fail. Maybe it's a sign that you shouldn't drastically change the pictures of your models, if it leaves them unrecognisable.
Victoria's Secret triumphantly posted a photograph of a woman in some of their trademark underwear on their Facebook page.
It had the caption "Truly, Madly, Cheeky". Aside from the woeful pun, so far, so normal.
However, if you look closely at the photograph, featuring a very skinny model, you will see a grave error.
The young woman only appears to have one 'cheek' on her bottom.
Truly. Madly. Cheeky. http://i.victoria.com/5JE

Some people have tried to fix the photo, by using Photoshop.
Some annoyed and amused customers have commented on the page, leaving their feedback.
Lara Lofdahl said: " I don't think you can call it "cheeky" if she only has 1 cheek."
Rachel Anderson said: "Truly. Madly. Deformed. #tryagainVicki"!
Ariana Abadian-Heifetz spoke about the dangers of over-photoshopping: "Can we stop making women's bodies objects to be altered, colour changed, resized, chopped up? This almost seems like it's supposed to be an anti-photoshop & anti-body shame campaign ad given how completely bizarre the arms and left butt cheek look.
"I'd prefer to keep my butt the way it is and not turn it into this truly madly cheeky nightmare."
Jillian Carrol doesn't think there's any point choosing attractive models if you are just going to make them look completely different anyway: "I can't believe you would even photoshop your models. They work so hard for the perfect bodies they have, then you mess it up with photoshop. Dumb."
Victoria's secret have come under fire for Photoshopping their models before - most notably when they caused internet outrage by slimming down Miranda Kerr in 2013.
