The comments on the post did not take long to arrive.
"Balenciaga pisses on their customers," wrote a surfer, and another added: "Balenciaga lost it, first bags that look like garbage bags, ruined shoes, and now this. People who can afford to spend such sums, you should think carefully about where your money is going and what you are doing supporters".
Are Balenciaga starting a new trend?
Natali Yitzhakov, trendologist, founder and partner along with Lior Fisher Shiloni in The Visionary agency for forecasting trends, says that "a towel is a basic product found in every home, and the range and variety of qualities, prices, textiles, etc. is extremely wide, and the price does not determine the nature of the quality. Therefore, the price is sometimes based on branding and provocation."

"People like branded products because they make them feel desirable and worthy. Even public opinion leaders know that a well-branded towel looks great," she adds.
"Regarding the Balenciaga fashion house, at first glance it raises doubts, on the other hand, and according to familiarity with the brand, there is a statement here that continues the line of the fashion house - ugly fashion."
