My respect for UO has been steadily decreasing over the past year, this is the lowest point so far. <BR/>Besides the moral aspect (which IS completely relevent), I think this also just shows a huge lack of creativity. If UO wants to do something "different", then why do they copy the nudity that's been used in tons of ads. Especially if for some brands it's thier "thing" to have nudity (ie AA, or Abercrombie like you said) and have the same photoshoot concepts a million times before. Really, it just doesn't make sense. <BR/>I'm proud that there are people like your Mom that stand up to say something about this kind of exploitation. You're lucky to have someone like her in your life!<BR/><3<3<3Kyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13807725012118831452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763549666947465103.post-37977189124198381622009-01-14T18:59:00.000-05:002009-01-14T18:59:00.000-05:00i actually love the UO photographs, the only probl...i actually love the UO photographs, the only problem i have with them is that they're UO. so maybe i'm just pretentious.emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16406044624206470669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763549666947465103.post-85799378071450889962009-01-14T16:06:00.000-05:002009-01-14T16:06:00.000-05:00I agree.

For instance, a nipple or 2 in French Vogue is completely acceptable to me, <I>not</I> in a catalogue with the purpose of selling clothes. While I realize that UO uses their "catalogues" as a means of creativity or whatnot and don't even feature all their products, not everyone wants to see suggestive photos. Quite daring of them, actually, and not necessarily in a good way.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I love this outfit, and I really like your blog. The ripped jeans are fabulous =)Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887561595213999866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763549666947465103.post-35454416688407153212009-01-14T15:44:00.000-05:002009-01-14T15:44:00.000-05:00i think the AA ads are much worse than the UO ads ...i think the AA ads are much worse than the UO ads (although i only saw a few pics from the catalog.)<BR/>love the outfit and thanks for the link!! ;)emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00117613354589476191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2763549666947465103.post-66055204134604034012009-01-14T04:32:00.002-05:002009-01-14T04:32:00.002-05:00whoops.
