His Marshmallow: Blatant racial stereotyping as "fantasy"
“China Doll is a fantasy palette inspired by a time and a place. It’s not our intention to offend anyone. The colors and the image for the palette were indeed inspired by the vintage Chinese posters, Oriental culture, and dolls.“
Yeah, because…
I…..don’t see a problem
JESUS CHRIST! I think people seriously need to calm down. These ARE the colors you would find in China Doll. I think it sucks that we’ve gotten to the point where if someone uses another nationality to describe something people immediately shout racism.
god fucking damnit. I hate this. Someone tries to appreciate and pay homage to another culture, and they get slammed for racism.
even I experienced that firsthand when I described dark mori. Got some hate mail for that.
I think some people don’t realize that cultures by definition have distinguishing characteristics, and that often the only way to describe the look is to call out the culture by name.
not to mention that this is a VERY common thing in the fashion industry.
it’s great to have ideals, but you also have to remember the reality and then work toward your ideal within the reality.
and get the stick out of your ass, look up the word “INTENT” and enjoy beauty.
