Prenda polémica de la colección otoño-invierno 2019 de Burberry

Disculpas tuvo que presentar Burberry tras lanzar una prenda de ropa y pronto, meterse a un meollo durante la Semana de la Moda en Londres.

Resulta que uno de los buzos, simulaba tener una soga al cuello.

Una de las modelos de la marca criticó en Instagram la insensibilidad de Burberry y pronto, la prenda fue retirada de la colección.

«Sentimos profundamente el sufrimiento causado por uno de nuestros productos presentados en nuestra colección otoño-invierno 2019«, dijo en un comunicado Marco Gobetti, director ejecutivo de la empresa. «Aunque el diseño estaba inspirado en la temática náutica, ha sido un gesto insensible y cometimos un error».

@burberry @riccardotisci17 Suicide is not fashion. It is not glamorous nor edgy and since this show is dedicated to the youth expressing their voice, here I go. Riccardo Tisci and everyone at Burberry it is beyond me how you could let a look resembling a noose hanging from a neck out on the runway. How could anyone overlook this and think it would be okay to do this especially in a line dedicated to young girls and youth. The impressionable youth. Not to mention the rising suicide rates world wide. Let’s not forget about the horrifying history of lynching either. There are hundreds of ways to tie a rope and they chose to tie it like a noose completely ignoring the fact that it was hanging around a neck. A massive brand like Burberry who is typically considered commercial and classy should not have overlooked such an obvious resemblance. I left my fitting extremely triggered after seeing this look (even though I did not wear it myself). Feeling as though I was right back where I was when I was going through an experience with suicide in my family. Also to add in they briefly hung one from the ceiling (trying to figure out the knot) and were laughing about it in the dressing room. I had asked to speak to someone about it but the only thing I was told to do was to write a letter. I had a brief conversation with someone but all that it entailed was “it’s fashion. Nobody cares about what’s going on in your personal life so just keep it to yourself” well I’m sorry but this is an issue bigger than myself. The issue is not about me being upset, there is a bigger picture here of what fashion turns a blind eye to or does to gain publicity. A look so ignorantly put together and a situation so poorly handled. I am ashamed to have been apart of the show. #burberry. I did not post this to disrespect the designer or the brand but to simply express an issue I feel very passionate about.

La modelo Liz Kennedy denunció la marca: «El suicidio no es moda. No es glamuroso ni atrevido», y agregó, dirigiéndose directamente a Riccardo Tisci, el director creativo de Burberry: «No puedo comprender cómo pueden permitir que un atuendo que parece llevar una soga al cuello salga a la pasarela».

La modelo afirmó que se arrepiente de haber hecho parte del desfile y reveló cuál fue su reacción al ver el buzo.  «Salí de las pruebas de vestuario extremadamente engañada después de ver este look (aunque no lo llevé yo misma)».
