It was this moment that had me like 🧐
𝘛𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥 1
#BalenciagaGate

How, #Ye? He was just on a rant days before that interview talking about celebrities being controlled, therefore, not speaking on the #Balenciaga scandal.

So the answer was 𝗡𝗼. #Ye would not sever his support for a fashion house (#Balenciaga) that had 𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘣𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦 intentions on crafting child exploitive themes within their shoot. Got me asking. Why?

Through the genesis of the scandal, #Ye tweeted this out (Dec. 1), an apparent conversation he had with 𝗗𝗘𝗠𝗡𝗔, the #Balenciaga Creative Director.

The Translation: ??????????????

..But this insinuates their friendship stood…even before the InfoWars interview..

The court documents siding with CSAM conflated as “free speech” -that happened

The children with product placements that provoked the #Balenciaga crowd to profusely apologize
-that happened

Etc.

I want to make something very clear: “Witchhunt” 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗴𝗮𝘀𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 ⇣

But the question is, “why?”. Why would #Ye deflect from what is truly seen?

Rightfully so, the world was up in arms about Kim K and her long silence in pertinence to #Balenciaga… She spoke out finally. Her response was not satisfactory, so the public (in their right) continues to express their disdain. #Ye stands WITH Balenciaga, the masses: 🦗🦗🦗🦗🦗

Stand with #Balenciaga? After all of what was brought to light? I guess it’s what’s been made “normal” in this family… kids in bondage.

Or… someone else, many else, rather….in my opinion…made it a normalcy for this family…

So, this had me looking a certain direction. What relationship with, not just #Balenciaga, but the fashion industry does #Ye have?

This trio has been looked at highly within the fashion industry for their post-Soviet style, and their 80’s punk contrarianism:

Demna Gvasalia
Gosha Rubchinskiy
Lotta Volkova

This trio have used each other interchangeably for several collaborations (a normalcy) #Ye a nucleus 🪩

𝟭.𝗗𝗘𝗠𝗡𝗔

#Ye and Demna first got acquainted back in 2014/2015, when Demna was behind the line, “Vetements”.

#Ye started showing his admiration for Demna publicly, and even hinting at their future collaboration.

From Yeezy to Donda to Gap, to Adidas and Balenciaga, #Ye and Demna have long collaborated on several projects, exhibiting a long-rooted friendship. This is probably why he couldn’t denounce #Balenciaga, or his friend Demna on InfoWars.

This excerpt from The NYT gives us a little in-look at Demna’s exhibition on sexuality “for another designer, the S&M gear might have been little more than an outré gesture, but that, he says, "was very personal to me, part of my sexual education."”

The next part gets dark, and lends us a lens into Demna’s possible childhood and transcendence today.

Which then makes this earlier post of Demna’s friend, Lotta, make more sense of their exhibited interests (posts, campaigns, friends with the same themes) Many of their friends, connections that @curioslight brought to light went into private and/or erasure mode on their accts.

𝟮. 𝗟𝗢𝗧𝗧𝗔
Really this picture is just that. Fashion publications also searched for plausible confirmations as to what Lotta and #Ye were working on, fashion-wise. It’s no secret that she has worked with Vetements, #Balenciaga, Adidas, etc. -paths cross…

…Indeed do paths cross

Alban Adam was a character @curioslight first exposed, later came to learn him and Lotta are actually married since the early thousands

Illustrating that this couple joined with the rest of the #Balenciaga crew and really do work in tandem.
