English term or phrase: body shaming

Report about social (media) sentiment towards a brand.

A tweet from one influencer could snowball into something investors take note of.
And it could be for something simple, like not having “boobdarts”.
And the next thing you know, H&M is hit with a ***body shaming*** crisis

"body shaming" (critiques stigmatisantes sur le physique)

Explanation:
"Une forme détournée de «body shaming», ces critiques stigmatisantes sur le physique, dont de nombreuses personnes font les frais. Or, c’est aussi sur Instagram que s’organise la résistance à cette pratique blessante. Ceci en diffusant sur la plateforme le hashtag #BoPo, pour «Body Positive», soit une attitude de respect et valorisation de tous les physiques."

Body Shaming/ La honte du corps

Explanation:
Le terme anglais est systématiquement utilisé dans les magazines, blogs, réseaux sociaux. Vous n'avez pas besoin de le traduire. Il y a néanmoins une traduction assez forte en signification que le terme anglais et qu'on utilise souvent et c'est LA HONTE DU CORPS.
On dit : pratiquer LA HONTE DU CORPS

Tony M: Except that it's not about actually "being ashamed of one's body" — it's about comments / actions that appear to make people feel they ought to be ashamed of their bodies; without more explanation, your suggestion would give quite the wrong slant.

-> C'est le terme utilisé sur Instagram, Facebook et autre pour le fait d'attaquer des personnes connues ou ordinaires pour ce que certains considèrent comme défaut corporel: excès de poids, pas assez de rondeurs, grain de beauté...

Daryo: strictly speaking "La honte du corps" would refer to someone ashamed of its own or other people body in any case, of any body on principle // what is really meant here is only "la honte du corps imparfait"
