Provocative / Offensive Ads #1

Spike413 · 11-05-2004

I'm doing a research project for my English final. I chose to research sexuality in fashion. I have a few articles so far, mostly on advertisments. Does anybody have any suggestions or sites that have either articles or pictures?

Thanx in advance.

There's a whole thread on controversial ads on the "Your Favorites" topic.

Lena · 12-05-2004

plus quite some topics on the 'end of sex' as the new direction in fashion advertisement, both at the designers&collections and at the trendspotting section , right here at tFS.

good luck with your paper spike

not sure what angle you approach your project, but http://www.commercialcloset.org really has a lot of information about attitudes toward homosexuality in advertising.

lol by the looks of the guy in the ad with her, she doesn't have to work too hard :P jk
I'm guessing it's in new york?

LOL, Natalia doesn't have the look for the part. And boy, what a part is that! Natalia's image is too innocent to lick some guy's *ss!

hahahaha

i love that ad! it screams teenage wasteland and adolescent rebellion to me. its fantastic!

Terrima183 · 08-11-2004

I wonder if her husband gets weirded out by seeing those shots. I know it's all fantasy and that it's her job to sell the clothes but I'd still be taken back by seeing my wife and mother of my toddler with her lips on another guys bum...
(not judging, just observing!)
