Constance Hall has just called out Aussie underwear brand Bonds for a few striking similarities in their most recent campaign , ‘Join the Queendom’.
And we can see her point.
The video follows three warrior ‘Queens’ into the Australian bush and their ‘warrior woman’ looks bear a striking resemblance to the vibe fans have come to recognise as Constance’s hippie-influenced, bohemian, girl-boss-in-a-flower-crown aesthetic.
‘Queens’ also happens to be the name Constance has given her community, with her books Like a Queen and Still a Queen, following the trend.
You can watch Bonds’ latest ‘Join the Queendom’ campaign here.
Naturally, she attacked the problem head on by penning an open letter to the company on her Instagram.
“Dear Bonds,” she began. “You completely forgot to ask me to model in your new Queendom campaign?? So f**king weird man, I even checked my junk emails..
“I’m getting slammed with messages from Queens wanting to know why the hell my vibe is all over bonds but I’m not… I’ve forgiven you. I don’t hold grudges and I’m too old to waste time with feelings of rejection.
“I suppose I’m never actually going to be an underwear model.”

Don’t really understand the Constance Hall love . Don’t get it at all. Don’t think she has the monopoly on all things “Queen”.
You're all COMPLETELY MISSING THE POINT....the font style is a copy, the dress style, hair style, pose style, working for female empowerment charity, creative style....basically everything is a copy, even some of the sentences are exactly the same as Cinstance has written previously.
Its not about using the word "Queen", its about over all ideal and artistic plagiarism across the entire campain.
Bonds would have sued Constance for this if the shoe was on the other foot.
Also, the only thing Constance wants from this is for Bonds to admit the copy cat antic and donate to her charity - nothing more.
Bonds has clearly recognized her teams success and done a copy. Using charity and female empowerment as a marketing ploy - not because they actually care.
Bonds has put a $10,000 capp on their 100% of profits donation on August 11.
That to me says its all for PR and money.
Yep, because Constance Hall isn't about PR and money.
And Constance does it for the love of it, not the PR and money?
