4. Marc Jacobs’ dreadlock scandal
Marc Jacob was accused of cultural appropriation after having A-list celebrities such as Kendall Jenner, Bella and Gigi Hadid, and Karlie Kloss walk the runway wearing dreadlocks. Marc took the situation into his own hands making critics even more angry after he called the backlash “nonsense” and insisted his intentions were pure and the look was inspired by cyber goth. Eventually, as the drama simmered down he took to Instagram to apologize “the lack of sensitivity unintentionally expressed by my brevity.”
