Benetton back – and pick up right where they left off
Posted on 28. May, 2007 by Jonathan Cherry in Advertising
Just the other day we were wondering whatever happened to the infamous Italian fashion brand, Benetton, and their ‘far left of left field’ advertising stunts.
Look….back in the 80’s and early 90’s this stuff would have caused the Pope to bless the very pages of Italian Vogue these ads were printed on to save the world from certain decay, but now these things come across…well…a bit dated.

A far cry from newly-born babies and clergy kisses.
