I saw the catalogue and was, quite frankly, disgusted by the pictures.

Have this been done before?

i had a look at their sire the other day. too many slogans for me.

MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:26

It's not the clothes it was the vulgar suggestive heavily made up children, posing and slogans like "Not to be violated"

poor kid

MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:32

Look under 'Cardi' the girl in the back seat of the car.. the slogan in the catalougue is "Not to be violated, seat belts included" or something.

Also a young girl on her hands and knees and the slogan is "A lady should never be kept waiting.."

eurgh!

i had considered getting the yoga bunny top for dd2 i wont now!

MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:35

I won't buy from there

The front of the catalogue is a bog made up in a "Clockwork Orange" fashion and we all know what that film is about.

The back shows a youg lad giving the v's

MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:37

MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:39

Oh and there's a boy pushing a car with low jeans on you can see the crack of his bum the slogan is also suggestive.

It's awful

The photos will definately put me off buying anything - which is a shame because I quite like some of the clothes, in particular the baby shoes.

foxinsocks · 20/01/2007 20:41

the pose of the girl in the taxi is disgraceful (can't believe it says 'not to be violated' in the catalogue, how awful)

misdee · 20/01/2007 20:42

there was a few items i considered (queen bee and yoga bunny) but am never looking there again.

whats that other shop that does cool tops?

MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:43

I found it really disturbing tbh. It's just sickening

OP posts:
MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:43

I wondered if I was being over sensitive

OP posts:
foxinsocks · 20/01/2007 20:44

I hate the whole moggeling thing anyway but I'm starting to think that children should not be used in catalogues/clothes ads at all

belgo · 20/01/2007 20:46

I wonder if the parents of the young models saw the photos of their children before they let them be published? I just can't imagine any parent agreeing to let those sort of photos being published.

CODNoMore · 20/01/2007 20:48

I'll telly ou wihtout exaggeration ( and from expereince) the one int eh car ( cardo) is like one i have seen in professional circumstances
but lsightly different iykwim

WelshBoris · 20/01/2007 20:48

The Dribble Factory do nice ones Misdee

MascaraOHara · 20/01/2007 20:49

It's awful. And the woman founder has children according to the photo on the inside cover.

Cod, that made my blood run cold

foxinsocks · 20/01/2007 20:51

I just don't see why we need kids mogelling the clothes

we (adults) are the ones who buy them - I'd be just as happy seeing a picture of the clothes on their own without seeing some 5 year old girl with mascara and blusher on wearing them

NorksBride · 20/01/2007 20:52

I didn't like the pictures either. The girls look like victims and the lads look like rent boys. It has a rather seedy feel about it.

I bought a friends 1yo DD a pale pink t-shirt with ballet shoes around the neck a couple of years ago- it was lovely, but I wish I hadn't now.

Twiglett · 20/01/2007 20:54

there must be someone / organisation to report that site too

the photographs are disgusting and bordering on pornographic

foul .. look at the dress one

and you're really not overreacting
