Missing spots in Honey Birdette Brand Advertising (Daily Mail picture)
Australia`s controversial lingerie brand, Honey Birdette, has yet another advertising ban. The female model in the advertisement missed the spot, arousing public anger.
Australian lingerie brand Honey Birdette has missed a spot in a poster on display at the mall, exposing children in and out of the mall, the Daily Mail reported.
In this offensive ad, the female model looks back in a mirror in a white bra, garter, stockings and underwear. The nipples of female models are visible, and people complain that they violate social norms.
People complained: "it`s in my local shopping mall, and every day countless families-young children, teenagers, parents-walk past this poster." At a time when there are more and more cases of sexual assault in the news, it is inappropriate to use female nudity to promote underwear. "
The Australian Advertising Standards Agency`s (Ad Standards Australia) survey concluded that the poster was not pornographic or insulting to women, but was "not suitable for display in front of a wide audience, including children."
The Honey Birdette brand initially responded that it had no intention of offending anyone and had taken note of the feedback.
It is reported that since 1988, the Australian Advertising Standards Agency has issued 28 rulings against the Honey Birdette brand on the basis of complaints from the public, including this time, a total of 13 injunctions have been issued.
