Interesting tidbit about that, actually. It seems that the company might not be the ones deserving the slings and arrows for this one, but rather the advertising company (North Six) that they hired to produce an ad campaign for them.

Yeah, but there still has to have been someone at Balenciaga signing off on that shit. Fair enough, maybe the weird documents stuff genuinely went unnoticed by them, but surely they should have realised how bad the BDSM bears looked

Unless they were handed a version that wasn't quite as risque, and someone did a bait and switch. Remember that bullshit about Janet Jackson's "accidental" half-time titty reveal? I'm not saying that's what happened here, but it has happened before.

That's not how it works. These shoots cost a lot of money. Every detail is planned and signed off well in advance
