London model Nyome says she had 'no idea' a Spanish body positivity campaign had used her photo.
A British model says her image was used in a Spanish campaign promoting body positivity without her permission.But Nyome Nicholas-Williams, from London, says a photo from her Instagram feed was used without her knowledge.
Nyome, 30, tells BBC Newsbeat an image from her social media feed was adapted for the poster released by the Institute for Women earlier this week. After posting a complaint about it on her account, she was contacted by the illustrator who created the final poster in messages seen by the BBC. "I feel it's very reactive rather than proactive," she says. "I'm annoyed because if they'd asked me in the beginning, I could have made a decision, I probably would have said yes".
