Sisley Uses Extreme Sexual Images in their Ads

Sisley AdWith no doubt, Sisley, the fashion oriented brand of Benetton, uses extreme sexual images in their ads, and if it’s not pornography, some of Sisley ads are very close to it. Sometimes Sisley ads don’t even contain a piece of Sisley clothing.

One of the controversial Sisley ads features model Josie Maran milking a cow with milk all over her face which resembles nothing but sexual act. See this nearly-NSFW ad here.

About Face, an organization against sexual objectification of women in media and advertising, ranks Sisley among top 10 brands who repeatedly use sexual images in their ads.

Holy crap. Not only are some of these models anorexic looking, but the barnyard theme looks like it was a whole campaign if you look through their older ads. Bestiality couture?
