Lets dig into this festering rabbit hole we call #FashionGate,
#Benetton received heat on Christmas Eve morning for their disgusting photoshoot involving children.

𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 is what celebs ought to do. In the one industry that majority stays silent (i.e. #Balenciaga scandal) @BusyPhilipps used her platform to bring light to this asinine photo: a girl with a bra/pantie set,posing as if her cover up is falling down and a boy in tighty whiteys.
There were other controversial photos within their campaign, like a little boy lifting up his polo to show undies... and people actually commended these posts..
In another, the same girl who posed in the first picture, posed in this reindeer onesi. Now, call me a fashion-karen 𝙞𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩, but what I find disturbing in this shoot is that they let the zipper down towards a plunging 'v'.
Taking theme from how they posed the same girl in the first photo to the one above, I wouldn't put it beside me that they meant sensual undertones in every plan they had for this little girl, and the rest of the kids which is 𝙎𝙄𝘾𝙆 and diabolical. [Personal Opinion]
Adding to my suspicion, this is another composition of the boy models, they had on their social media. See how they posed the boy on the right with a onesi, along a split-screen of the first boy model?
It's hard to pin down exactly who coordinated this shoot, as Benetton was quick to delete the photo off of their social media, and online presence. Here are some credits for the recent fashion campaign although, vague.
There are some added controversies associated with #Benetton that @curioslight noted in this thread:
Since we are talking #Benetton, I just wanted to add some interesting links and people.
𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗘: This is not alluding to being the DIRECT causation of the recent F/W 23 kids campaign, just some interesting ironies associated with Benetton's 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁.
Remember this picture? What you see are archives of Virginia Roberts Guiffre, Ghislaine, Naomi Campbell, and her boyfriend at the time, Flavio Briatore
He has been attributed for being responsible for #Benetton's flourishing success
Yes, of course he's in the little black book--which could also just mean he was 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 an acquaintance of JE.... we would need evidence to prove anything other than, and further
But whats interesting is that he was also put to manage high-class international racing for the #Benetton Group... and that rang a bell with another person I researched in the past
Alejandro Agag who is also involved with the racing industry and..
Who is also mentioned in JE Little Black Book
Just a surface level Google on these two
