Digging Down The Balenciaga Rabbit Hole

The stuff with Balencaiga is absolutely BONKERS. We dive deep into the rabbit hole to sift through the Balenciaga Fact VS. Fiction.

Quick Synopsis of the scandal from The Cut:
"Earlier this month, Balenciaga dropped its holiday ad campaign, featuring children holding teddy bears in bondage harnesses and costumes...The backlash against the images has been swift, with the hashtag #cancelBalenciaga trending across Twitter and TikTok and many accusing the brand and its creative director, Demna, of condoning pedophilia and child exploitation. In a separate ad that dropped on November 21 promoting Balenciaga’s spring/summer 2023 collection, a bag from the fashion house’s collaboration with Adidas was photographed atop copies of what appear to be documents from the Supreme Court case United States v. Williams, a ruling that upheld the PROTECT Act, which increased federal protections against child pornography." - The Cut
