When it comes to cultural insensitivity/awareness do they deserve a share of the blame? Do they get to be excused under the pretense that what they do is "art"?<br /><br />http://smashyx2.blogspot.com/2010/07/mac-x-rodarte-x-controversy.htmlPietra Gunnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08071685507275981508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8418331994933041831.post-88394664999515273722010-07-19T00:34:26.305+01:002010-07-19T00:34:26.305+01:00Thanks for commenting on my post in regards to the...Thanks for commenting on my post in regards to the MAC Rodarte Collection!<br /><br />http://wandesworld.com/2010/07/beauty-craze-mac-rodarte-collection.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01882359109829018796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8418331994933041831.post-32646957519487848072010-07-19T00:30:10.086+01:002010-07-19T00:30:10.086+01:00Thanks so much for the comment on my own post surr...Thanks so much for the comment on my own post surrounding this controversy.

The charities, causes, recycling, collections with artistic inspirations and collaborations... they always seemed to put thought into their actions and releases. Where was the thought here? Where was the awareness of issues? It actually directly goes against their stated philosophy in places. <br />http://konglishbeauty.com/2010/07/19/mac-rodarte-the-controversy-and-why-we-care/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8418331994933041831.post-83897388343699486342010-07-18T23:30:40.152+01:002010-07-18T23:30:40.152+01:00I find the promo image for the collection so creep...I find the promo image for the collection so creepy :(Perfectly Polishedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08778165814216099975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8418331994933041831.post-45053579509983913082010-07-18T23:21:48.236+01:002010-07-18T23:21:48.236+01:00I think the collection will be a hit no matter wha...I think the collection will be a hit no matter what.
