Disaster "Is that stuffed toy in Bondage gear?": Balenciaga children ad leaves internet stunned - Balenciaga has since nuked their account

Luxury fashion brand Balenciaga is raising concern for children’s safety following the release of their latest ad campaign. In the images showcased on the brand’s official website, children can be seen carrying bondage-themed toys. Netizens found the theme “creepy” and “disturbing.”



On November 20, Twitter user @DatCatDer took to their official account to publicize Balenciaga’s latest advertisement. The tweet read:

“Balenciaga using photos of little girls playing with teddy bears dressed in bondage gear on their website. Lovely.”

Along with the tweet, the netizen also attached images of Balenciaga’s website. In one image, a child can be seen standing on a pink bed and holding a teddy bear which is wearing a fishnet top, a collar with a lock, and ankle and wrist restraints. The toy can also be seen wearing a blindfold.

In another image taken from the brand’s gift shop catalog, a different child model can be seen standing on a couch and holding a study bear that is wearing a leather chest harness and collar.

As the tweet amassed traction online, fellow platform user @shoe0nhead shared that the photoshoot included poorly hidden court documents about “virtual child p*rn.” The netizen wrote “normal stuff” as they sarcastically commented on the matter at hand.

Netizens fire at Balenciaga’s photoshoot​

Internet users were appalled after becoming aware of the ad campaign. Many expressed concern as the brand seemed to be promoting child p*rnography. Netizens relentlessly slammed the Paris-headquartered fashion house and endlessly questioned the appropriateness of the ad campaign.

A few tweets read:



Keep Prisons Single Sex USA, a women’s rights campaign group, also tweeted in response to the ad campaign. They said in a tweet:

“This destruction of innocence & normalization of fringe behaviors seems like an effort to make acceptable previously unimaginable scenarios (like men in women’s prisons & shelters / children having “gender identities” / adult-dancing in libraries). None of this is acceptable.”

After garnering backlash, sources claimed that the brand’s Instagram page limited the ability for users to leave comments under the post. However, since then, the brand has deleted the campaign from its Instagram page and the page only features three other posts.

The brand also recently deleted their Twitter account in protest against Elon Musk’s platform takeover.

Everything to know about the bear photoshoot​

The accessory (or bear) featured in the fashion house’s campaign is from their Spring 2023 collection. National Geographic photographer Gabriele Galimberti spearheaded the campaign. The photoshoot is an extension of the photographer’s Toy Stories series. According to the brand's official website:

“dozens of Balenciaga products are staged around children dressed in the Balenciaga Kids line. The campaign iterates on the artist’s series Toy Stories, an exploration of what people collect and receive as gifts."

​

Galimberti, who reportedly takes portraits of “everyday eccentricities” as per the fashion house, has also continued to share his work from the Toy Series on his official Instagram page. It includes a series of pictures taken of children around the world alongside their favorite toys.

Remember that time the guys in charge, and the extremely rich were caught literally worshipping a statue of Moloch; but everyone just accepted "Lol we were just goofing off bro!" as an answer?
I do.

I also think that shit like this, is probably stemming from shit like that.

Isn't this what broke Alex Jones's brain?

What's really disturbing is how desensitised certain people are to this degeneracy that none just stops a moment to ask "hold on, isn't this...a bit creepy and we shouldn't be making kids part of it?". They are truly ok with it and see nothing wrong, even if they aren't pedophiles themselves.

"Oh, so you're implying that black people are primates, huh? I'll you show YOU who's an uncivilized subhuman!"

"Stop calling us monkeys!"

proceeds accordingly:

What benefit does this net a company? They get attention, and then that attention loses them countless customers who will remember them being a massive faggot.

The people moaning about this aren’t Balenciaga’s customers. You were never going to spend upwards of a thousand dollars on a pair of their lower end sneakers.

Controversy is advertising.

Never heard of these degenerates before this.

Is embracing degeneracy for the sake of causing drama to advertise something worse than just being a degenerate?

why is pedophilia so damn prevalent in the elites? why do they feel they have to shove it into everything? there are so many fetishes yet they always seem to default to pedophilia.

Its like drugs. A threesome or gang bang with hot people arent enough, theyve done that countless times. The only thing that gets their rocks off is the taboo. And whats more taboo than little kids in modern society?

They are feeling more comfortable now that grooming is normalized. At this rate just give it 15 years and there'll be Playbaby magazines.

I give it less than 10 years before the kids in advertisements are wearing those outfits.

Because they have the money and connections to do it and get away with it for years, decades even.

And you DON'T

Any old Joe can conceivably buy a gimp suit, or even save up their cash and get a solid-gold buttplug, but, only you, uber-rich you, can afford to have a child slave bought off their parents and shipped to you..... ergo, you're better than everyone else and your fragile ego is secure against all accusations that you're no different than all the dull masses. No matter how kinky they get, they cannot top YOU.

It can't be that expensive, aren't there cows who bought children? Her name is escaping me but the one in thinking of has a toilet in her car, beats her kids with a wooden spoon, and gives the kid socks for mittens in the winter.

Balenciaga is one of the biggest fashion houses in the world. Ignorance isn’t an excuse for buying into a manufactured controversy like this.

Im not buying into anything. What I meant is if this was supposed to be advertising via controversy it worked as the existence of their brand new reached me, someone who has no interest in their products and does not associate with anyone who buys their products.

Your prediction is off by about 65 years.

Gross was the photographer of a controversial set of nude images taken in 1975 of a then ten-year-old Brooke Shields with the consent of her mother, Teri Shields, for the Playboy publication Sugar 'n' Spice. The images portray Shields nude, standing and sitting in a bathtub, wearing makeup and covered in oil. Two of the images portrayed full-frontal nudity. In 1981, Brooke Shields attempted to prevent further use of the photographs but in 1983 a US Court ruled that a child is bound by the terms of the valid, unrestricted consents to the use of photographs executed by a guardian and that the image did not breach child pornography laws.[4] In ruling, the presiding Judge stated: "The issue on this appeal is whether an infant model may disaffirm a prior unrestricted consent executed on her behalf by her parent and maintain an action pursuant to section 51 of the Civil Rights Law against her photographer for republication of photographs of her. We hold that she may not."[4]

What's manufactured? I mean maybe they manufactured it themselves to advertise their products to pedophiles, but the very fact they did that should be "controversial." Actually it shouldn't be because there should really be no pro or con argument one way or the other, which is what "controversial" means.

They should just be put up against a wall.

 

[MirrorNoir]

why is pedophilia so damn prevalent in the elites? why do they feel they have to shove it into everything? there are so many fetishes yet they always seem to default to pedophilia.

Several reasons:

1. When you are one of the elites, you can have any sexual interest you want catered to so you eventually start chasing new obscene thrills like child rape, since you know you can get away with it given your elite status

2. When the elites do business, there is the idea of engaging in child rape activities to provide blackmail fodder for both sides so neither parties can double cross the other; since if one side betrays the other, the other can leak the betrayer's CP to the press and media destroy them.

3. It's a way for new members of the elite to be initiated via blackmail and to keep their underlines in line by incriminating them so they have no choice but to stay loyal.

Isn't this what broke Alex Jones's brain?

Yeah lol.

There's a great (I say great, actually pretty sad) clip from one of his shows. He gets real quiet, the character breaks and he just sort of stares listlessly and says "I tell people, I've seen what they're up to, and no one believes me. No one." It's brutal.

I was kinda willing to hear you out earlier, but why would you expect anyone not autistically into 'high fashion' to know or care about this company? Why are you so adamant now on acting like what they did here is not a problem?

There is some furry out there looking at this indignant that they aren't getting royalties for their mini clone.

Back during the gilded age, pipe organs were huge amongst the elite. They were ugly, out of fashion, and expensive. Yet they bought them as quickly as they could make them. The reason why? It was something out of the grasp of the normal guy. Even grand pianos were considered too much of a commoner thing. They bought these organs precisely because the average people neither had access to one or appreciated them.

The modern day equivalent of pipe organs is child rape. The average person would get tossed in the slammer but the elite can mostly get away with it. Plus it gives the procurers some blackmail material to keep them in line. Too many people like Kanye West running around saying whatever they feel like. I’m sure there was other deviant shit the gilded age elite got into but it shows how degenerate things have become that classical music is out and child rape is in.

Scanned through the thread.
I did not see a mention of a book that was laying in one of the pages:
I don't trigger warning often but, I will here.
This book is.... horrific.
The perv that drew this should be investigated.
Here is the archive of the thread. Again, click at your own risk. Yes, it is STILL being sold on Amazon.
