It doesn't even make sense to have a nude model. I don't like "ink not mink" or "I'd rather go naked than wear fur" but at least those campaigns had a vague reason to contain nudity.

Maybe they're trying to reference Equus or whatever that play was where Harry Potter loves a horse.

This was the first thing I thought of.

[bonyhands]

ahem.

*rofl.*

[affectionjunkie]

I think this might also be a reference to Lady Godiva.

[cloud_atlas]

Exactly.

[vegetus]

Good point!

Whilst the original "I'd rather go naked than ware fur" ads were catchy and new at the time, it seems it's all a bit gratuitous now, like every campaign has to have naked people. Not sure it has as much of an impact.

Haha, yeah, I thought that too. "Okay, but why is she naked? Oh yeah, it's PETA; she's a hot girl."

[orphe_]

it does, because they're referencing lady godiva - who, incidentally, was an early feminist, at least in my opinion.

[please_collapse]

! first thing i thought.

[shatteress]

It's a reference to Lady Godiva, I'm quite sure, given the length of hair. Her legend is of compassion and humility. It's quite appropriate in that way.

[emptycages]

I think so, too.

[scuttle]

Right. I didn't think of that.

[snowtonight]

I agree. :)

I'm pretty certain they are referencing Lady Godiva.
