    I think it was the Ann D instagram page... they posted a picture of Travis Scott. It got so much flak in the comments that they deleted it shortly after.

      I don't remember one of Travis Scott, but there's one of Kendall Jenner on their official Instagram. Plenty of negative comments. The ASAP Rocky one is on there as well

        They actually bragged about Kendel Janner or whatever the fuck her name is wearing Ann.

          What will happen when A$AP Rocky discovers CCP and Paul Harnden? I can see that in the not-so-distant future..

            Nobody gave a shit when Jun boasted about Harry Potter wearing Undercover... or Kuboraum, ever. Pretty sure Simone even got a pass a few months ago.

              It's not who these celebrities are wearing that's bothersome, but that the designers are actively using it to promote their brand.

                Certainly, but brands lose control in the case of someone writing their name into lyrics, like these

                  Simone gushing over Brad Pitt was just as awful.

                    They can't control someone else's lyrics, but they can control their Instagram. Ann is a cult brand. All attempts to make it otherwise are misguided and doomed.

                      I wouldn't say so. Pitt is legit.

                        Balmain x H&M out today. The H&M website is already down and photos of crowds in front of stores are beginning to emerge. And I loved these rules posted on Fashionista. Read this bit carefully - you will be given 15 minutes to shop the entire collection. This means that you are not actually paying any attention to the clothes - all you have time to do is grab and run.

                          15mins to grab and dash? Figured H&M would add a condition like this . I know the one in Soho had a countdown timer until they were releasing it, which i'm sure is in shambles (the store, or to be precise, the collaboration area) as i typed this...

                            A video showing a H&M store opening the flood gates, to put it nicely, for the Balmain collab. Never cease to amaze me

                              That's just sad. The absolute power of the media and marketing in motion.

                                This makes me want to quit the human race.
                                New purchases only widen the void they were intended to fill.
