Balenciaga Still Has A Stigma Attached

While Kim Kardashian is seemingly supporting the company, it has left a bad taste in many people’s mouths after a poor choice to feature kids carrying BDSM-styled handbags and teddy bears. Notably, since Balenciaga chose to feature children in a collection that supports the BDSM ad campaign it sent fans into hysterics about the abuse of children. Later, the company apologized saying, “Our plush bear bags and the gift collection should have not been featured with children.” Additionally, saying, “This was a wrong choice by Balenciaga, combined with our failure in assessing and validating images.” Then added, “The responsibility for this lies with Balenciaga alone.” Even so, many fans have not forgotten the bad press that surrounded the company.
