Why Balenciaga is Considered a Controversial Brand
The Kardashian clan often wears Balenciaga, despite controversy surrounding the brand.
The Kardashian family has come under fire several times for wearing Balenciaga, even after the brand received backlash for seemingly promoting child pornography and BDSM in their 2022 holiday campaign.
The bizarre advert featured children holding teddy bears in BDSM gear and paperwork that contained written laws against child pornography. One child was also pictured with empty wine glasses.
The brand apologized, making a statement on Instagram that read: โWe sincerely apologize for any offense our holiday campaign may have caused."

Kanye West Doesn't Approve of Daughter North's Outfits
Kanye West was mad when North wore a corset in Italy this summer.
As OK! reported, Kanye, 48, reportedly doesn't like that Kim is letting North wear "edgy" outfits.

"It needs to stop or heโll raise h--- with the lawyers," the insider warned.
