Well, you're not alone.
This Vogue China image of Victoria Beckham is sparking social media debate, with many arguing that it's another example of women being heavily Photoshopped in professional shoots.

Others were skeptical that the image was edited and said it just looks Photoshopped because of her underwear:
Beckham's spokesperson told The Telegraph that the model's shirt was simply "tucked under from behind" and cast doubt on the chatter that the image was edited to remove a piece of her leg.

Earlier this year, Vogue China came under fire for its cover of model Gigi Hadid.

The lingerie brand Victoria's Secret has also faced criticism for apparent Photoshop fails in the past.
Late last year, the brand was battered on Facebook after posting a photo of a model whose butt and right arm appeared to be heavily doctored.
Five years ago, Victoria's Secret was slammed on social media after a model's arm was completely erased in an image:
