“Regarding my future at Balenciaga, I am currently reviewing my relationship with the brand,” the popular TV personality said in a statement.
The strong reactions of the public were accepted by Kim Kardashianafter the disturbance caused by Balenciaga’s provocative campaign with sadomasochistic teddy bears in the hands of children.
“I’ve been quiet for the last few days, not because I wasn’t shocked and outraged by the recent campaign, but because I wanted a chance to talk to the house team and understand how exactly this happened,” Kardashian wrote in an Instagram story.
She added: “As a mother of four, I was disturbed by these disturbing images. The safety of children should be treated with the utmost respect and anything against it should have no place in our society – period.

I appreciate the withdrawal of the campaign and the apology of the house. In speaking with them, I believe they understand how serious the issue is and will take the necessary steps to ensure this never happens again.
Regarding my future at Balenciaga, I am currently reviewing my relationship with the brand in terms of their willingness to take responsibility for something that should never have happened and the actions I expect to see them take to protect the kids,” Kim Kardashian noted.
The campaign received thousands of negative comments from users who were concerned that the images promoted strange messages and even bordered on child pornography.
“We would like to address the controversy surrounding our recent advertising campaigns. We strongly condemn child abuse and it was never our intention to include it in our narrative,” the house said in a statement.
“The two separate advertising campaigns under review reflect a series of serious errors for which Balenciaga accepts responsibility.”
The statement went on to say that Balenciaga’s decision to feature children with teddy bears dressed in “BDSM-inspired clothing” was a “wrong choice” and “only Balenciaga is responsible for this.”
This is the second announcement of the house, as social media users blasted its new advertising campaign. Finally, the house added in its announcement that it wants to learn from its mistakes.
“Balenciaga reiterates its sincere apologies for the offense we caused and apologizes to everyone,” the post said.
Balenciaga’s statement came hours after Kardashian blasted the brand, which she has worked with since her marriage to Kanye West.
