The brand has apologised after showing children holding bondage teddy bears amongst legal documents about child pornography in a new advert.
The creative director of Balenciaga, Demna Gvasalia, known as Demna, has issued an apology taking responsibility for the holiday ad campaign that featured children holding teddy bears dressed in bondage gear, set amongst a pile of documents that included Supreme Court cases about child pornography. Earlier this week, Balenciaga filed a lawsuit against the production company they said was responsible for their holiday campaign after receiving backlash - they have since dropped the lawsuit.
Galimberti has also since posted on Instagram clarifying that he had no creative direction over the products or models and did not take the photograph with the Supreme Court documents as is being reported.On Tuesday 29th, Balenciaga filed a lawsuit against production company North Six Inc - and it's agent, Nicholas Des Jardins -, accusing them of engaging in 'inexplicable acts and omissions' that were 'malevolent, or at the very last, extraordinarily reckless.
Denma wrote on Instagram, 'As much as I would sometimes like to provoke a thought through my work, I would NEVER have an intention to do that with such an awful subject as child abuse that I condemn.'Kim Kardashian tweeted her response on Sunday evening, stating that she has spoken to the team and is now re-evualating her relationship with the brand.
