French fashion giant Balenciaga has dropped its $25,000,000 lawsuit it had filed against the producers of a now pulled 2023 ad campaign. The lawsuit was filed against production company North Six and set designer Nicholas Des Jardins after court documents relating to a US Supreme Court decision on child pornography were placed on set in a prominent postion. The NY Post reported “In its initial filing, Balenciaga claimed North Six and Des Jardins’ “inexplicable acts and omissions were malevolent or, at the very least, extraordinarily reckless. As a result of defendants’ misconduct, members of the public, including the news media, have falsely and horrifically associated Balenciaga with the repulsive and deeply disturbing subject of the court decision.”Balenciaga had claimed that it had no knowledge of the placement of the documents in the photo shoot and had sought damages in the wake of the public outcry that followed.
