A fashion stylist connected to haute-couture fashion house Balenciaga broke her silence after being accused of posting images featuring graphic violence against children.

Lotta Volkova worked hand-in-hand with Balenciaga’s creative director Demna Gvasalia until 2017 and was forced to set her Instagram account to ‘private’ after facing backlash over the images she posted to social media, according to Newsweek.

Tweets directing attention to her photographs went viral as fans called out the label and its celebrity supporters, demanding answers and calling for Volkova to face consequences.

The stylist’s social media pages came under scrutiny after Balenciaga shared a controversial ad campaign that featured children holding stuffed bears dressed in BDSM gear and a partially hidden printout of a Supreme Court case dealing with child pornography. The fashion label has since announced a $25 million lawsuit against the production company responsible for the ads.

‘On Volkova’s Instagram page, fans (sic) uncovered scenes of violence and Satanic imagery, much of it involving children, although it remains unclear if Volkova photographed the images herself or just shared them to her online profile, according to Newsweek. Volkova’s representative spoke on her behalf, saying “she condemns the abuse of children in any form,” according to the outlet.’

She may “condemn the abuse of children in any form”, but one needs to know her definition of abuse. I would say with her, anything goes. I don’t believe her.

[Tax-chick]

It’s just the kind of boilerplate one’s “representative” has to put out when one is caught being so absolutely revolting that even our debased society says, “YUCK!”

Of course it’s nonsense.

[yldstrk]

Our society is overrun with demons.

[liberalh8ter]

So the woman in question hasn't been involved with this designer for a few years and had nothing to do with this current campaign. That means ANOTHER person concocted this atrocity. Looks like that industry is full of demented perverts.

So Balenciaga is suing?

“Lotta Volkova worked hand-in-hand with Balenciaga’s creative director Demna Gvasalia”

I could be missing something, but if their Creative Director approved this, I assume it was approved at higher levels, too, how can Balenciaga expect to win?

Lara Logan was on War Room’s 6 p.m. hour last night discussing this.

And of course it was a woman ….

Pizzagate was real.

Make no mistake. Pederasty is the next goal of the Gramscian Left. Pornography, removal of the barriers to free sex, legalized abortion, promotion of homosexuality, same sex “marriage”, cross dressing, mutilation disguised as gender choice. Pederasty is the next frontier in the long march of the degenerates of the Left.

She is of the left. So she is a liar.

Anyone who's ever been involved in anything that goes to the public knows that there are LAYERS of review and approval before someone hits the PUBLISH button.

I saw a simple press release get circulated for review - at least a dozen people were involved in the crowdsourced editing and proofing. And that was just one press release.

There is NO WAY there weren't scores of people reviewing, editing, debating, discussing, challenging, etc this ad campaign.

To be sure, the pressure for consensus was likely high, and nobody wants to get fired.

But at least in the corporate world, alternative voices are welcome. A devil's advocate can be helpful.

I suspect - and fear - that a review of the email threads behind this campaign would reveal zero concerns/no voice of dissent.

even our debased society says, “YUCK!”

Typically, our debased society says "yuck", initially. But after we've been exposed (and conditioned) to perversion, we take it mainstream.

Recreational drugs were rightly condemned and outlawed. Now, proliferate.

Homosexuality was rightly condemned and prohibited. Now......

Americans have the sticktoitiveness of a fallen leaf on a windy day.

And we're approaching a cultural mindset where children will be disposable hence, exploitable, by degenerates.

Because we kicked GOD AND HIS SON, JESUS OUT OF AMERICA!

She may “condemn the abuse of children in any form”, but one needs to know her definition of abuse.

Her definition of "abuse" would likely involve taking the children to church, not getting them vaccinated and teaching them how to use firearms.

The fashion label has since announced a $25 million lawsuit against the production company responsible for the ads.

Didn’t the fashion company approve the completed ad? They probably thought it was edgy and provocative, and now, following backlash, like most woke corporations, they cower when called out.

Images of little children being tortured and maimed have been very popular in the uber cool Leftist sphere for a while. Look up the Podesta Brothers art collections, you can still find the pics. Horrid.

There is a story that came out last week of four infants found in a freezer in South Boston. A couple of the people on WEEI radio show live in the neighborhood. They were talking about again this morning. One of the radio personalities walks by this building everyday. They stated that an elderly woman had lived in the building/house.

[Robert DeLong]

If she truly was upset by the images, why didn't she sue them right out of the gate. Besides that, ad companies must present the ad campaign to their client for their approval. If they didn't do that then they are a stupid company who deserves to be sued into oblivion, but I highly doubt that was the case.

One would also conclude that if something disgusts a person, the last thing they would ever do is share it with the world, and if they did, would at least state their utter disgust and their intentions to sue.

Shame that some people will believe her patently false excuse.
