Fashion Junkie

Sisley fashion junkie has found a tasteless way to promote their line of clothing.
I think that ad was to much. I understand that they are fashion junkies but that is taking it a little to far. It's like that they are approving the use of cocaine. The girls look like they are all high to.

Fashion junkie

I think that this Fashion Line is taking fashion junkie to a whole new level. I dont think cocaine and a little white dress have any relation what so ever. I know that there is alot of people addicted to drugs, but I dont think that is a good way to get there attention just to buy there fashion line. They are probably broke from thier addiction in the first place, and can not afford to buy anything.

Fashion Victims

This ad portrays the readers to believe that fashion is supposed to make you feel like you are high on life. The company is trying to sell a clothing line using drugs in the shape of a t-shirt. In my opinion the ad really is portraying women as fashion victims.

Really?

A lot of us have the preconceived notion models do drugs to stay thin. But I think this is taking it too far. One, it looks like the models are "snorting" cocaine. But if you take a closer look, they're trying to "snort" a dress. Maybe that makes it okay, but glamorizing the image of a "junkie" is not. It's not like it's a good thing to be a junkie. Junkies live on the streets, don't have money or clothes, and they smell funny. Would you want to be a fashion junkie if it meant that?
