Well, the show was for a hat designer so why should anyone be distracted by clothes.

The designer gained some attention by playing on people's fears of nudity which is funny when the story you posted blocks all the naughty bits on all the models except the pregnant one.

-Miss Coles is brilliant.

-It is much easier to coordinate one item vs two or more.

-The least amount of distraction, concerning clothing, is the least amount of accessories. This show works very well because there is only one item for you to focus on. If the the show concept is working you should see a naked person wearing a beautiful hat.

I shoot Diane in hats very often. Sometimes it accenuates the outfit, sometimes it does not. I don't think the nudity aspect helped highlight the hats, but it did draw attention to the designer.

Bingo!

You have just received a passing grade in "fashion marketing 101". 

I guess it is the same as why used car salesman wear stripes and plaids... Anything for attention.

I'll be damned if I'm buying any used car from a nekkid Herb Tarlick wearing one of these hats. (if you know this referral you're far older than you think!)

You can keep Herb... I will take Jennifer or even Bailey... And now for the hog report.

LOL Fellas, I think we've just proven that we've got concert tee shirts much older'n the models we shoot!

Well... having a show without clothing got the designer an article and a post in a forum, right?

I think that, in terms of marketing, this was a success.
