There's some controversy over the f/w 06 Dolce and Gabbana ads. I'll try and find the article to post.

D&G ads are repulsive

I find some of them to be quite sexy.

Oh I LOVE that YSL campaign by Mario Sorrenti. Beautifully done, but unfortunately, hard to find.

The D&G ads were gorgeous! Controversial my butt! ANd I also love some of the other D&G ads. The one with Fernanda is gorgeous, and I love how they're not afraid to "go there".

I really like this YSL ad and some CK ones,is great to see some hot guys naked and toy boys cause it's always all about naked women and women as objects!!!

This ad was cause for small provocation a while back. I hate it. I generally hate D&G ads, they incite no interest from the viewer when they are obviously trying to provide a narrative, which ends up making no sense.

^^^ Why is that provocative? Because the jeans are so low?

^ ummm..can u not see?
pubic hair is showing

 

[Sanne]

Yes, I noticed. I just can't imagine it would be the cause of a provocation, but maybe that's just me. It's only some pubic hair, there are pics in this thread that show a lot more.

 

[Trista]

Oh you'd be surprised, it's cause for censorship in some cases.

I just felt that I should honor the memory of Anna Nicole Smith.
She wasnt a "fashion-model" but she did a legendary campaign for H&M
It is actually one of the first ads where H&M were labeled sexist by numerous feminist movements in Sweden (this is now a tradition around the christmas campaign)

It's from the winter of 1993
and the picture is taken from the swedish magazine aftonbladet's homepage

It is a Swedish classic... this used to be provocative... times change huh...

 

[Sanne]

Ah yes, Anna Nicole used to be so beautiful
I made a post on ONTD with all her Guess ads, also from 1993.
