A blue-blooded influencer with a swimwear line has sparked concern after posting a bathing suit 'inspired by how [her] boyfriend would dress [her.]'

The finished-product from 29-year-old Jordan Kanegis is a barely there, Bianca Censori-esque creation - capped by a ski mask that fully obscures the face.

Donning the swimsuit herself, she wrote in an accompanying caption: 'New @Netta [her brand]. Inspired by how my bf would dress me if there were no rules.'

The assertion, joking or not, has sparked a storm of backlash on Reddit against the NYC-based influencer and her designer boyfriend Andrew Wharton-Bickley.

'That caption is a little concerning,' one top commenter wrote in response. 'It’s giving Bianca and Kanye.' 

'I'm all for everyone being able to wear what they want,' they went on to add.

'But something about men wanting to dress women in a way that objectifies them and her thinking its cool is weird.'

Other onlookers said more of the same, all in response to a re-posted grab of influencer's Instagram story that had gone up just hours earlier.

'That’s sad that she thinks it’s a flex that her bf would cover her mouth and expose her,' someone said.

'I always think how hard women fought for their rights in the past to have a voice, choices, dreams.. just for little twits like her to promote dumb shit on internet.'

Another wrote: 'Wow her bf is a misogynist with no style? Shocker.'

'[T]his is some Kanye West sh*t,' added yet another - as others slammed the suit as a red flag.

'Thought this was Bianca,' said another Reddit user - apparently not alone in her assessment, as a plethora said the same.

'Temu Kanye and Bianca from Wish found at the Salvation Army,' one jokester sniped.  

'What is this lingeries[sic] to rob a bank in?' a more puzzled passerby said, pointing to what appeared to be leg warmers on Kanegis's feet.

'This is so weird,' they concluded.

The design appeared to take a page out of also 29-year-old Bianca Censort's book, which several have claimed is the work of husband Kanye West

That fact was not lost on Reddit users who started a thread Tuesday to react to the post, shared only hours earlier

Kanegis, meanwhile, has more than 40,000 followers on social media, where she regularly posts other risqué photos and records of her exploits in New York and West Palm Beach, where she is based.

Splitting her time between the two cities, she recently started a model agency in the Big Apple called The Killer Agency, which she runs in addition to Netta, which she founded in 2018.

The line is now sold by selective retailers like Moda Operandi and Paltrow's Goop, with the actress even following Kanegis on Instagram. 

The two are also cousins, making Kanegis the niece of WeWork founder Adam Neumann, who is married Paltrow's first cousin Rebecca.   

Posting from posh SoHo eateries while sometimes bragging about being mistaken for Kendall Jenner, Kanegis regularly publishes photos with boyfriend Andrew.

She has a townhouse in Gramercy as well, and is originally from Bedford - a small, affluent town about an hour north of Manhattan.

Rebecca Neumann - nee Paltrow -  grew up in Bedford as well, and is the daughter of Evelyn and Bob Paltrow, who was the brother of Gwyneth's dad Bruce, a film and television producer in Hollywood.

Her childhood home is now valued at $3.56 million. The town currently houses stars such as  Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, Glenn Glose, Chevy Chase, Martha Stewart, and Ralph Lauren.
