This weeks ban could be filed under "that's what Dov was going for all along", as an American Apparel ad has been banned in the UK by the ASA for featuring a girl looking underage and the shots "suggested she was stripping off for an amateur photo shoot". Isn't that their entire 'campaign'? The ASA ruling also reads: "Because the ad could be seen to sexualise a model who appeared to be a child, under the age of 16 years, we concluded that it was inappropriate and could cause serious offence to some readers.'' The ad appeared in VICE magazine, where it paled in comparison to the editorial content. ;)

Even the copy makes it sound like someone captured this girl and made her pose in a hotel room.
"Ryan wears the classic unisex Flex Fleece zip hoody" could easily get followed by:
"Ryan sits on the bed."
"Ryan stands by the wall."
"Ryan unzips the hoody."
"..Ryan unzips the hoody."
"RYAN UNZIPS THE HOODY OR SHE GETS THE HOSE AGAIN."
