Balenciaga under fire over ‘creepy’ ads of kids with ‘bondage outfits’

Online shoppers spotted the adverts and were infuriated, calling the images “frightening,” “creepy” and “wrong.”

Newsroom November 24 10:27

Balenciaga is under fire online after showing two young girls holding stuffed animals dressed in what appears to be bondage gear in an advertisement.

The fashion house — which has been associated with the likes of Kim Kardashian and previously made headlines for its daring fashion choices — featured the mini models in Balenciaga apparel, holding plush toys that contrasted with the horrifying bondage get-ups.

In one image, a ginger-haired little girl sported a T-shirt from the brand while holding the strap connected to a white bear, which was in a vest with a padlocked choker around its neck.

In another, a brunette child donned a blue outfit while clutching a purple plush animal, which was sporting similarly BDSM attire. Balenciaga did not immediately respond to the Post’s request for comment.

Online shoppers spotted the adverts and were infuriated, calling the images “frightening,” “creepy” and “wrong.”

“I thought people were trolling, but nope. It’s real. Maybe this is why Balenciaga left Twitter. They don’t want to be held accountable. Yes, these are children holding teddy bears dressed in bondage outfits,” one Twitter user fumed.
