Chanel West Coast is facing backlash as her poolside bikini snap racks up comments. In October, the 36-year-old shared a sunkissed snap on Instagram, promoting her eco-friendly Coasty Swim brand while modeling a two-piece from her range. Sizzling in a tricolor bathing suit as she struck a pose from a terrace, Chanel had one fan accusing her of editing the image, and the remark sparked a massive drama. Chanel, who promotes body positivity and has opened up about making her brand size-inclusive, was told that a "chunk" of her "side" was "missing," something alleged to have been a result of editing.

Scroll for the photo. Modeling the pastel shades that are her brand's trademark, Chanel wowed in a ruched bikini in yellow, pink, and blue. Modeling the "Neapolitan" look mentioned in her caption, the West Coast Hustle star flaunted her toned tummy and shapely legs, flashing her cleavage while looking incredible with her golden tan.

Going retro with a bandeau-accent top complete with a feminine bust knot, Chanel kept her swimwear cute and sexy, rocking slightly high-cut briefs that accentuated her trim hips.

Wearing brown-rimmed shades as she gazed ahead, Chanel pouted a little, sporting her brunette locks down and glossy as she glistened in the sun. In a caption, she wrote: "Finally got a lil sun in Miami…time to #CoolOff.  Get the Textured Bikini in Neapolitan at coastyswim.com Fave 1/2?"

The photo was posted both on Chanel West Coast's Instagram and on her 2022-founded brand's feed. Quick to hone in on Chanel's midriff was a fan who said: "No hate but you have a chunk missing out of your side from the editing." Over 20 users liked the comment. When one fan asked where the evidence was, another replied: "Zoom in. It’s on the right side when you look at her. Plus both sides of her stomach are pixelated showing obvious editing. Once again no hate just an observation."

Also thinking that the photo had been touched up was the fan saying: "Yes! And this is why women have insecurities."

In September, she shared this sunkissed snap, channeling all things yellow as she wowed in a plunging Coasty Swim bikini while going "lil miss sunshine" in her caption.
