13 Times Fashion Got Offensive This Year

It’s not every day the fashion world makes us angry. In fact, most of the time it makes us really, really happy. We get to shop, browse gorgeous editorials, and scroll through the most stylish Instagram feeds. But every now and then, we’re surprised, shocked, and even outraged by products that misappropriate cultures, promote stereotypes, or are simply in bad taste. And that disappoints us.

But even when the offensive items get removed from websites, we can’t just forgive and forget. Instead, we think it’s better to call out these mistakes so hopefully they won’t happen again. Ahead, the 13 fashion moments that really stirred the pot this year and a bit about what we thought of them.
