Fashion Ad Hooey Of The Week.

(click ad, scanned from the latest Gotham) This almost makes me like the new Diesel stupidity. Fellow Italian fashion brand Brunello Cucinelli  gets all Eastern philosophical with an unknown (Google and Bartlett’s turned up zilch) gooey bit of hooey, combined with a probable stock photo of an Asian girl in dirty stockings with cherries on them. Theirwebsite is full of more thoughtful bullshit from Dostoevsky, Socrates, etc. Free scholarly sound bites: I guess that’s one way to try to justify charging $1,000 for sweaters.

Previous pretentious fashion ads:
Uniqlo.
Superette.
Meltin’ Pot.
Kate Spade.
Frankie Morello.
Comme de Garçons.
Ermenegildo Zegna.
