We noted that the model was holding up the perfume bottle which rested in her lap between her legs and we considered that its position was sexually provocative. We understood the model was 17 years old but we considered she looked under the age of 16. We considered that the length of her dress, her leg and position of the perfume bottle drew attention to her sexuality. Because of that, along with her appearance, we considered the ad could be seen to sexualise a child.

"In an unusual collaboration with W magazine, Mr. Ai created a story line for a series of photos that were shot on location in New York by the photographer Max Vadukul as Mr. Ai looked on, art directing via Skype on a laptop computer. The photos will appear in the November issue, W’s sixth annual one devoted to art. They depict a woman, dressed in the requisite designer outfit, being captured, handcuffed and hooded on the street by two menacing figures and taken to a grim institution — a disused part of Rikers — where they watch her shower."

"A floral printed romper from Ms. Von Furstenberg’s show can be ordered for $498. A leather coat from Mr. Jacobs costs $5,900. And as the site notes, 'Vogue may receive a commission on some sales made through this service.' "

overview: fashion magazines are becoming - more than they already are - clothing catalogues in order to generate more $. problem: fashion magazines aren't supposed to be catalogues. editors/mags sometimes get paid to feature specific designers in their editorials, and thats kind of ehh, but this really blows that out of the water.
lets hammer a few more nails into the coffin, shall we?

“Olivier’s best dresses were his gowns,” said one longtime designer, who did not want to comment publicly on a colleague. “And that’s a niche business. That sort of perfect, made-to-measure business can’t exist today, which is really too bad. Everything is about business now, and fashion shouldn’t have to follow normal economic models — that’s not the point. What happened to investing in beauty?”

Suno's first runway show took place last night at Milk studios to immediate twitter accolades by the likes of Susie Lau and Cathy Horyn. And the praise was duly warranted. Prints covered silhouettes that spoke to earlier styles while illustrating a move towards new shapes and more refined aesthetics. The slit-leather chokers and Loeffler Randall-collab sandles were pretty stellar as well.
Kudos to its brilliant directors.
