Tom Ford Offends Italians


pparently Tom Ford is a bit of a provocateur. (Well, duh.) An Italian watchdog group has banned his latest eyewear campaign, deeming it "markedly vulgar".

The Institute for Advertising Self-Discipline (IAP) finds the below image "evokes an offending and abusive act against women, which degrades the dignity of the person" and has subsequently banned the image from the national media. Well, Flashies, what do you say? Are you offended?

As usual, WhoWhatWear Daily is right on top of emerging micro trends, including this one: neon pink accessories. They recommend a pair of Neon Roped Lights Sunglasses which retail for $14 from Urban Outfitters. $14? You can't beat that with a stick.
