Arnaud Henry P--i Elle France editor-at-large Arnaud Henry steals designer merchandise Tokyo Internet
Arnaud Henry @theonlypi is supposedly the editor-in- chief at PI, Editor-at-large for Elle France, and a contributor to Vogue France. My name is Bradley, I'm a clothing designer in the United States and have been designing and making original garments and accessories for the past 10 years. I have created my own niche that entices individuals to photograph and publish my pieces in magazines and online publications. Arnaud, reached out to me and wanted to include my pieces in a few editorials for Elle France, Elle Korea, Elle Japan, Bullet Magazine, AnOther Man and AnOther Magazine. The Shoots were scheduled in December 2014, and I prepared the international shipment in November with the assurance all shipping would be reimbursed by Elle ( wasn't). The packages arrived on time and when the shoots were completed there wasn't any contact for a month or so. So I inquire about the return of my merchandise in February 2015. I made contact with Arnaud, he further assured me that the items were safe and would be shipped within the week. Another month has passed. It is Now March and I still have not received a package. I inquire again and was given an excuse about being busy at Paris Fashion Week but was promised a preview of the editorials my pieces were featured in. Another Month passes, at this point I am beginning to feel uncomfortable about the whereabouts of my merchandise. I get in contact with Arnaud, he tells me he already shipped the package but can't provide a tracking number and will have to find it- still no images. Weeks pass, Now it's the end of April, I finally receive a tracking number, but it doesn't work and there is no record of a package and I still don't have images proving my pieces were used in any of these major fashion publications.

Now It is almost August 2015, after my inital report he has since has changed his online Instagram handle to @rndhnr. At this point there has been a group of designers who have come together in efforts to retrieve the Items. Martin Across, Sandro Marzo, Boris Bidjan Saaberi, Hachi Balmung, Sue Suh, Gilda Su, Gabriel Maria Platt and myself have all fallen victim to the scam artist. Something needs to happen.
