The bathroom is a place for many things, not just the obvious as the Alexander Wang Spring 2014 ad campaign points out. This is especially true when it comes to public restrooms where dressed-up women congregate to primp, judge and even engage in some explicit activities. At least two of those things take place in the print ads, including, of course, using the place as it was intended to be used.
Shot by photographer Steven Klein in the Old School in Soho, the Alexander Wang Spring 2014 ad campaign stars Anna Ewers, who poses provocatively on a sink wearing a "Parental Advisory Explicit Content" top. This top plays on Wang's overall theme, which "plays on the duality of naïveté and perverse explicitness in youth culture," he reveals.
