Is it art, or is it misogyny? Whatever it is, Dolce & Gabbana might want to reconsider their ad campaigns.
Do the women who buy D&G's products respond favorably to the rape fantasy depicted in this ad? Do the designers really understand their customers? Here's an interview with Stefano Gabbana that suggests the designers are out of touch.
I'm so happy I've found your blog. Finally someone's actually smart enough to tell it like it is. I'm so sick of fashion people who defend large companies and their bullshit campaigns. I'll boycott D&G after seeing this picture! Also, boycott Chanel! The models they use are way to young and skinny! The consumers have the power.

Fuck this feminist bullshit. You're in the wrong camp with that dried-up vagina of yours. I doubt you'd be such a prude if you ever got LAID.
Lighten up.

I find this picture really hot and wish it didn't have the D&G text across it. And yeah, obviously I have rape fantasies. But I don't really give a damn about advertisements or brand names in general. I just find the picture hot.
