Little Mix have hit back at critics who say they dress ‘too provocatively’ on stage.
The X-Factor-winning girl group have been criticised time and time again for their revealing stage outfits, most recently at the One Love Manchester tribute concert last Sunday.
But the group have continued to do what they do without plans to change their style any time soon – and why should they?
Speaking to Metro Entertainment ahead of their performance at the Capital Summertime Ball on Saturday, band member Jesy Nelson said: “I say – sod off!”
Jade Thirlwall added:
We wear what we wear and we love it. We’re confident in ourselves and I think that should be praised. We are who we are and as long as we’re comfortable and happy, that’s all that matters.
Their critics often jump to social media to say ‘less revealing is more’ and all that…
#LittleMix we do ❤you but sometimes less revealing outfits is more…

Those Little mix revealing outfits are getting more and more boring, try a bit more clothing and focus on the talent you possess ladies!

But, they do have plenty of people jumping to their defence…

Sick and tired of people trashing little mix for dressing like they want to, which happens to be lots of revealing clothes. Leave them alone
