Raunchy or Wrong?

This is a new feature for youwish... in which we take a look at some famous fashion ad campaigns that pushed the boundaries of taste and censorship. Below are a couple of examples that caused a stir when they were released.

This Gucci ad caused such an uproar when it was released in 2003, that I think it even made the 6 o'clock news. I don't know what the big fuss is all about- we all have rude bits... don't we? The world isn't going to explode because a model flashes a bit of nip, or pubic hair in the pages of W magazine. But anyway, that's just my opinion, what do you think?


And then there is this ad for YSL, from 2004... It's not so much, pushing bourndries, as ripping them in half and then pissing all over them. But I'm not complaining, it's against my religion to ever talk badly about naked male models.

You're right Tom, who cares about a bit of nude-y rude-y? Who's it hurting? See you later, I have an urge to go and buy some YSL gear...

I like to call it Pornvertising... It's a BOOMING industry!

i think the Gucci ad is tacky. But then, a lot of people who wear Gucci are tacky, so i guess it fits.
The YSL one, on the other hand, is beautiful. It's the Statue of David personified.
