A controversial Byron Bay influencer has sparked the debate online by posting her ideal party dress for her 30th birthday.

“Sorry, I’m a no on this one, I think you could find better,” one fan replied.
“No, it gives supre vibes,” added another, referring to the cheap clothing chain. ‘You could find something much better! Either way you’ll look bangin’.
“Hot only $2000 for polyester?” asked another.

Matthews recently caused a stir after she sold T-shirts decorated by her five-year-old son for up to $60 each.
She raised eyebrows earlier this month by announcing she was selling tops painted by her middle child Mars on Instagram.
Modeling one of the tops on Instagram Stories, the mother-of-three told her audience, “Mars has some shirts and singlets that we’re going to sell here.”
‘100 (sic) of the profit goes to his piggy bank because he doesn’t have a bank account yet. He just owes me money for the dice [sic] and shirts LOL, but I’ll let that slide,” she added.
Ruby, who recently came under fire for using a photo of Mars to promote her Robey brand, accompanied this with more images of herself as a model for Mars T-shirt designs, which were priced between $50 and $60.

Instagram ‘snark’ account Dutch Mint has since reposted the images, sparking a lively debate about Ruby’s latest venture.
“People are literally struggling to afford groceries, $50 is a joke,” one user commented.
“I’m sure she has enough change to put in her son’s piggy bank. $50 for a tie-dye shirt and that tie-dye isn’t even that vibrant? You kidding,” added another.

Some users were concerned that Ruby’s post suggested she doesn’t have a savings account for her kids, with one writing, “Even in my most destitute days, my kids have accounts with a [accounts payable] go into it weekly.’
Other users, however, defended Ruby’s money-making venture, calling it a clever parenting strategy.
‘It does not bother me. She has a platform and in turn her children. No one is holding a gun out to someone and forcing them to spend $50. I think she is using supply and demand to help her child understand value and economics,” one user wrote.
Some users criticized the cost of Ruby’s shirts, while others expressed concern that her post suggested she doesn’t have a savings account for her kids.
