Kim Kardashian wants to reconsider her partnership with Balenciaga after a controversial campaign

BET À DAY

American reality TV and social media star Kim Kardashian wants to 're-evaluate' her relationship with luxury brand Balenciaga, in embarrassment after a campaign featuring children and sex toys . 

The French house, owned by luxury group Kering, apologized last week on its Instagram account and removed several photos from its campaign for the spring-summer collection 2023, one of which showed a child holding a bag in the shape of a white teddy bear strapped with black belts.

Internet users have also noted that in another photo, a bag from a Balenciaga-Adidas collaboration is placed on documents on which are printed excerpts from a decision of the United States Supreme Court on child pornography.

“I've been silent for the past few days, not because I haven't been disgusted and outraged by Balenciaga's recent campaigns, but because I wanted the opportunity to speak to their team to understand for myself how it could have happened”, wrote Kim Kardashian on his twitter account on Sunday evening.

The one who counts Balenciaga among its partner brands says she is “shocked by these disturbing images”, “as a mother of four children”. She also says that she took note of Balenciaga's “withdrawal from the campaigns and (the) apologies”.

“As for my future with Balenciaga, I am reassessing my relationship with the brand, based on about their willingness to accept responsibility for something that should never have happened – and the actions I expect them to take to protect children,” the reality TV star adds to her 74 million subscriber accounts.
