Fashion Brand Employs Lesbian Heterosexuality

Gaultier_lesbian_not.jpg

Is a new campaign for fashion brand Jean Paul Gaultier, we see what appears to be two women in the throes of a passionate kiss. One of the models is Victoria’s Secret model Karolina Kurkova, currently the highest paid female model in the world. The other model is…think The Crying Game…the very androgynous Andrej Pejic, currently the highest paid male model in the world.

So yea, it’s a lesbian kiss but only before you realize one of the woman is actually a man. hey, this is fashion advertising. They can do whatever they want and still call it advertising. It’s a waste of time to bother figuring out what they’re thinking. Except for the fact this ad brilliantly reinforces the notion most fashion brands are all about pushing the envelope and challenging accepted norms.
