It’s about D&G new controversial campaign. A man holds a woman to the ground by her wrists while a group of men look on. Following complaints from Spanish consumers’ groups, the Italian stylists decided to withdraw it. Well, the Italian duo commented: "What has an artistic photo got to do with a real act? […] You would have to burn museums like the Louvre or the paintings of Caravaggio."
Probably, according to D&G, Spain is becoming a Medieval Country, with no freedom of expression, where women dress like post-modern Queen Elisabeth Tudor (even her hands covered by gloves), but nobody ever told us. Things are a bit different and more complicated. The message expressed through the advertising is quite violent. There’s a man who – probably – aims to rape a woman under other people’s eyes…maybe this description is a bit brutal, but that’s what I saw…moreover, I’d like to say fashion is nothing but fashion, it’s art, glamour and nothing else. But it’s more complicated. Our society – it’s plain to see – depends on communication. The so called information era. I know which dress to buy, which smartphone. Which book to read, movie to see. I know this kind of society allows me to express my ideas. As well as I know D&G are teasers - some of their clothes are innovative and in early nineties they reached success designing costumes for Madonna’s Girlie Show. But there are responsibilities that cannot be dismissed. It’s more than a simple matter of good taste. It’s about a social violence that isn’t worth to be displayed over enormous placards. That’s all.

they are women haters.
the evidence is the way they suppose to dress them
well
maybe it's true
even if once (10 years ago?) their dresses were better...after their coming out (about sexual and political tendences...jesus they vote for Berlusconi!!!) probably they believe they can do whatever they want!
