Id be looking into the backgrounds of the people responsible for this

There is already a thread on their apology.

It's wrong, but then I think this brand is a social experiment to see what people will tolerate and buy, in the name of 'fashion'.
All of their stuff is hideous.

I also saw an image of a beaten up woman, which suggested that the were using domestic abuse to promote their wares. I wasn’t able to check whether it was a genuine ad though.

I'm old enough to remember when they advertised truly beautiful things.

Absolutely revolting and it wouldn’t surprise me if it happened because we’re living in a time where many adults are trying to project adult issues on children, forcing children to think about things like gender and their sexual orientation/identity from a young age. Perhaps the people at Balenciaga thought that this means that this ok too. I’m glad they withdrew that campaign now. Inappropriate doesn’t even cover it.

I don't get why they are taking legal action, they agreed to publish it. They deserve to be cancelled for good. Sick.
