Abramovich's partner sits on 'black woman' chair on Martin Luther King Day

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich's partner unleashed a wave of internet condemnation after she posted a photo of her sitting on a chair that looks like a half-naked black woman - on Martin Luther King Day.

Dasha Zhukova, the Russian editor-in-chief of Garage magazine, is seen in the photo that was published by Buro 247.

It appears to be inspired bya collection designed by British pop artist Allen Jones in 1969 and has since been cropped to show only Zhukova without the chair.

The blog used the image in an unrelated interview about the former model's new magazine, Garage.

Miroslava Duma, Buro 247's editor, also posted the photo on Instagram.
