to think it is infuriating that I will be written off as po-faced when I want to protest about the objectification and sexualisation of women??

This makes me feel sad and angry in equal measure.

But I know lots of people will say I am old-fashioned, jealous, bitter, anti-women for expressing this. I feel most definitely that if I want to object to this sort of marketing, I will have negative comments made about me and my looks and personality flung at me as a way to shut me up!

Makes me mad, it does.

Reckon you've got something there Sockie! Get some models to model coats outdoors on a cold day outside Buckingham Palace. Fab idea.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but the photos are no longer on the dm site and instead there's an article about how Hk knew nothing about the promotion!

It looks as if Heidi agrees with you OP!
Hurrah!

They look cold, they look thin and the underwear looks like something youd buy in primark. What are they modelling/advertising??

It does piss me off. Why are they making semi naked women walk around in the cold, in lace underwear and high heels.

I dont get it. Its unimaginative, cliche and objectifying. Noone gives a fuck about the underwear brand

We're did you see these images, Branleuse? All I can find is Heidi saying 'not on my watch!' which is one for the sisterhood I think!
