Italian jeans help attract hot chicks, solve world crises.


(click ads) Meltin Pot jeans (bastardized René Descartes tagline: I dream. I am.), via Italian agency Armando Testa, again tries the nonsensical sell made a cliche by fellow Italian fashion label Diesel. While I love hot women in lingerie and pig masks as much as the next man/lesbian, making light of catastrophic financial meltdowns and tragically inadequate healthcare whilst hawking hundred dollar cotton pants doesn't achieve an attractive senseless tone for me. Also, the layouts are just trying too hard to be quirky (images via).

Regarding the first ad, I originally thought that Arianna's book might have been the inspiration:
Pigs at the Trough: How Corporate Greed and Political Corruption Are Undermining America
by Arianna Huffington

But after reading the following quote from Silvio, the media mogul, and OH YES he also happens to be Italy's Prime Minister, I would have to say the ad is more a reflection of his misogynist views.

Mr Berlusconi was quoted as saying that when he looked round parliament, he found that female politicians from the right were "more beautiful". "The left has no taste, even when it comes to women."
