In that sense, I think they work. It gets people thinking and talking about these issues, which is all you can ask, really.Victoria A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15055621001064291774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-101684554413183302.post-30873269741512527602010-08-17T18:46:11.500+10:002010-08-17T18:46:11.500+10:00I want to be disgusted by these photos for all the...I want to be disgusted by these photos for all the reasons that you cite. But there's something that makes me think "at least they're keeping it on the agenda". The oil is still leaking, the birds are still dying but it's not longer front page news. Out of sight, out of mind. This editorial, while somehow hypocritical is at least making news. Can't say it really makes me want to buy the clothes though.Clare Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01283236740297246220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-101684554413183302.post-90237286491838041592010-08-17T18:20:20.677+10:002010-08-17T18:20:20.677+10:00Wow.

If this was 'art', without the designer labels, then it would be a provocative message, the photos <i>are</i> striking but this isn't provocative, it's a cheap jump on a bandwagon.Duskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16886762964734400403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-101684554413183302.post-69846319849484729932010-08-17T10:15:11.597+10:002010-08-17T10:15:11.597+10:00Wow.
