Hall Closet: Controversy at its BEST
I bet you think that this Dolce & Gabbana fashion ad is really hot right? Well I do to but it caused a stir in the media when it was printed in several fashion magazines around the globe. The advertisement showed a bare-chested man holding down a woman by her wrists while other men look casually on. "We were looking to recreate a game of seduction in the campaign and highlight the beauty of our collections," the designers said. I personally find the ad appealing and very strong in a sense. I feel that fashion is a form of expression just as well as religion, sex, and music. Therefore, as a designer you should be able to express what you have envisioned rather it be on a billboard or magazine spread. That's MY opinion. Don't feel bad though, D&G hasn't been the only designers in this situation. Icons such as John Galliano, and Alexander McQueen have both produced "controversial" ads. Catch their ads after the jump!
