    Benetton advertisements. Young man dying of AIDS while family sits around his bed. What does it mean? But Benetton clothes because we make mysterious, big-statement ads.
    Another f their ads has a body lying in a pool of blood, looks like a gangland killing. What has this to do with fashion? Nothing. It just means the world is a violent and sad place, life goes on though, so better wear some sharp clothes.

    Just my opinion.
