Tom Ford For Men Ad Campaign…is racy!!!
September 13, 2007
Tom Fords new fragrance “Tom Ford For Men”, is definitely, unabashedly being marketed to straight men.
The images which were photographed by Terry Richardson and feature racy images of a naked woman “holding” the cologne with various body parts. We’ll have to wait and see if any magazines pick up the campaign or if Tom Ford will release more edited mainstream pics.
You can see one image after the jump. (NSFW!)

Aside from the idea that this is one more thing pushing the edge of decency just a little bit further to lower resistance to explicit sexual material in the collective concious, I don’t find it any more shocking than the the explicit material you can find published anywhere. At least Tom Ford has made it some what artful… I’d rather be exposed to images that make me think of sex than the atrocities of war and other violent behavior that the media allows to dominate their pages and air waves.
[…] he was slinging his cologne by using racy images of a naked woman “holding” the cologne with various…body parts. […]
The campaign for the fragrance was already a stretch, but the new spring/summer menswear campaign even goes a step further. Check it out here.
