Original poster

Have you seen this advertisement for young girl and baby girl clothing? Disgusting.

If you haven't already then i suggest you watch this advert. A french company has made 'sexy lingerie' for young girls and babies! They are called 'Jours apres lunes.' The advert is as if a man/pervert is looking through bushes at these young girls. Even a young girl can be seen 'fondling' with a teddy bear and a close up of a babies bottom modelling the lingerie. Disturbing if you ask me.

Sadly, this must mean that despite the critcism in 2011, the garments must have sold well enough then for them to do it again.

DontPutMeDownForCardio · 27/09/2014 14:24

Oh that is horrible. The clothes are quite nice and I don't think are sexualized in themselves- until you're told it's lingerie. It's the way is shot that's also very disturbing - lingering shots of the children's necklines and chests. That's horrible. Didn't watch it all.

cartsmar · 27/09/2014 14:38

Those 'lingering shots' are clearly to show off the details of the clothes - bows, frills etc

What the hell is wrong with people that they think this is sexual? Unless you think babies bottoms and girls' chests are sexual? And you think this is how a man/pervert (they're interchangeable are they now...? Hmm ) views kids?

The problem is you OP!

cartsmar · 27/09/2014 14:39

'Fondling teddy bears.'

Back to the bridge 'angrymumma'.

meditrina · 27/09/2014 14:42

I think the posing of the girl in bra and knickers with the oversized teddy is sexualised. The amount of make up is startling. And the legs akimbo shots are like no other children's clothes advertising I have seen.

Heels99 · 27/09/2014 14:43

It's kids jumping about in vests and shorts. Seemed fine to me, didn't see any fondling, piercing or inappropriate babies bottles.

pebblestack · 27/09/2014 14:44

Good grief, it's not lingerie, it's 'loungerie'

Hardly transparent knickers and push up bras for 5 year olds!

And the ad, shock horror, is kids playing in a garden wearing pretty cotton clothes.

TheWholeOfTheSpoon · 27/09/2014 14:50

Crickey! It doesn't take much to get you angry and disgusted, OP!

cartsmar · 27/09/2014 14:50

meditrina - legs akimbo? Where? Perhaps drop them an email asking they tie girls knees together in future so as not to offend you. You weirdo!

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 27/09/2014 14:58

Eh?

I just watched the whole advert. Kids playing in entirely age appropriate vests and big knickers. What is the issue?

BIWI · 27/09/2014 15:01

You wouldn't actually be trying to get people to click on that link would you, angrymumma, seeing as this is your first post and everything? Hmm

Pippidoeswhatshewants · 27/09/2014 15:07

Lingerie is the fancy french word for underwear.
Watched the ad, can't get all tied up in knots about it.

YouAreMyRain · 27/09/2014 15:11

Yeah and the pillow bursting is like the release of sexual tension and the floating feathers are clearly representing drops of exploding semen.

Biscuit

It's just some kids in vests ffs! Get a grip.

Theas18 · 27/09/2014 15:17

Kids playing in vests and big pants in a garden? Non event.

mooth · 27/09/2014 15:25

Why are you promoting it, OP, if it's so disgusting?

Mintyy · 27/09/2014 15:26

I don't like the amount of makeup they are wearing ...

EhricLovesTheBhrothers · 27/09/2014 15:26

I was ready to be disgusted but I'm afraid I can't. I didn't find it sexualised and the word lingerie just means underwear in French, not sexy underwear as it seems to mean in English.

5madthings · 27/09/2014 15:29

They are vests and knickers! Look fine to me.

I don't like the advert, but the clothes themselves look fine.

Louisajane27 · 27/09/2014 15:29

O dear op, I would stay well clear of all media sources as you seem to be easily offended by "normal" things!

Oakmaiden · 27/09/2014 15:32

I think the underwear is entirely appropriate and very pretty.

And it is just children playing in the garden having fun. I watched it waiting for something inappropriate, but really didn't see any cause for concern at all.

AnyFucker · 27/09/2014 15:33

I want to go there ! Now !

Can't see anything wrong with it.

ChippingInLatteLover · 27/09/2014 15:39

Kids playing in the garden in shorts & vest tops.

Advertiser showing the details of the garments.

One adult (I thought it was meant to be the Mum?!) wearing makeup.

I think anyone who sees anything sexual in that advert needs to have a word with themselves.

bloodyteenagers · 27/09/2014 15:40

Amounts of makeup is startling?
Who.When. The beginning. The adult?

ChippingInLatteLover · 27/09/2014 15:40

Me too AF it all looks lovely. Warm sun, cold drinks, relaxing in the garden... bring it on!

HaroldLloyd · 27/09/2014 15:43

The clothes are lovely. There are some tree shots, I am not altogether sure who the fuck would get a pervert in the bushes reference.

Close ups, not sure on but clearly just to show the detail.

Bonkers.
