In the wake of the Balenciaga scandal in which they have been called out for featuring very young, toddler-age children in a fashion campaign with BDSM-themed teddy bear bags, we can add another voice to the list of dissenters and that voice would be youtuber Trisha Paytas.
Trisha recently became a Mom herself back in September when her little girl, Malibu Barbie Hacmon was born. Trisha wanted to address the Balenciaga scandal simply because she has been dong a lot of Kardashian-related content lately (before the scandal) and saying that she really liked the iteration of the Kardashian show on Hulu, even though she had never really watched it before now.
But that may change.
She said that she has purchased Balenciaga in the past, and while she wouldn’t be burning her past purchases or anything on-camera, she was definitely never, ever going to spend money with them again. She also went onto say that even before this she thought that the brand was “overpriced” and “ugly but ironic” which is an interesting take on the whole thing.
Trisha Paytas denounces Balenciaga
Trisha said that while she has never purchased actual clothing from the brand, she has purchased shoes and bags (those are the only things that came in her size) from them, but says that she won’t be doing that again because the last shoes she got from Balenciaga had a terrible glue smell to them.
Certainly, a brand as bougie as Balenciaga can afford to do better. She went onto comment on the controversy, calling Balenciaga’s finger-pointing a bunch of BS because she says that even on her shoots that there is always someone there who is constantly paying attention to the little details and even a shoot that’s done for $50K (which is practically nothing in the industry) is subject to all kinds of approval, and Trisha hasn’t even worked for huge fashion houses before, all she is done is smaller shoots for adult toy catalogs (that we know of), she’s also done music video shoots as well and while they’re slightly different the fact of the matter is, there is always someone there paying attention to detail, she’s right about that.
Trisha’s had her fair share of being problematic in the past, but it looks like she’s actually making a go of being kind of wholesome right now. It’s refreshing. Stay tuned!!!
