When fashion photographer Claire Rothstein shared a photo of Rachel McAdams breast pumping in head-to-toe couture in December the image became an instant hit.
While decked out in Versace and Bulgari diamonds McAdams was shown using a breast pump, which social media hailed for normalizing the maternal act which so often comes under fire.
Rothstein wrote in the Instagram post:
"Breastfeeding is the most normal thing in the world and I can't for the life of me imagine why or how it is ever frowned upon or scared of."
"I don't even think it needs explaining but just wanted to put this out there, as if it even changes one person's perception of something so natural, so normal, so amazing then that's great."
It seems Younger star Hillary Duff was one of the many inspired by the photo. Dramedy Younger, which stars Sutton Foster and Debi Mazar in addition to Duff, is available for streaming here.
On Friday Duff posted a dressed down adaptation of the look alongside the original image to Instagram, asking "Am I doing this right?" in the caption.
The answer was definitely yes.
Most moms probably wouldn't say no to being dressed up in Versace while covered in diamonds, but Duff's at home version was something far more moms could relate to. Wearing a simple button-down and hair cap Duff had turned the couture look into casual chic.
Couture vs. casual, fans seemed to love both the looks from McAdams and Duff.

Though there was no doubt that Duff had taken the look and made it her own.
McAdam's gave birth to her first child last year, a son, with screenwriter boyfriend Jamie Linden. Although she is notoriously private about her personal life it's not hard to see why she's an inspiration to working moms, including Duff.
Duff, a mother of two, also gave birth last year to a girl named Banks Violet with singer/songwriter boyfriend Matthew Koma and has a 6-year-old son, Luca Cruz, with ex-husband Mike Comrie.
The former Disney star also delighted fans back in December when she tentatively confirmed a new Lizzie McGuire project might be in the works. Nothing is decided yet but "conversations" are happening.
Seriously, what more could you ask for?
Whether fashionable or functional both McAdams and Duff rocked the look and made working moms everywhere proud with their empowering images.
No wonder we love them both.
