Sexual Assault Rumours and Allegations Among Models and Employees Were Essentially Ignored

Some employees said there were often jokes about harassment thrown around at meetings that were met with nervous laughter or shrugged off entirely because of how many allegations they saw daily. Whether any of them truly knew about Epstein's involvement at the time or not, allowing that culture to be swept under the rug was a precursor for the brand's impending bigger problems.
