This new Project Runway ad has been banned in Los Angeles due to the nude models featured but Talent Management modelling and talent staff can’t agree on whether or not this was justified… What do you think? (Click the pic to view full-size)

The advert promotes the latest series of Project Runway with Heidi Klum, and shows the famous model dressed as Marie Antoinette, seated on a thrown, with a group of naked male and female models at her feet. Co-presenter Tim Gunn is also shown standing by her side.

The advert has been allowed in New York City but was deemed unsuitable for the people of L.A. where it was apparently banned due to ‘side-boob’ and ‘side-bum’ on display. Some people in the Talent Management offices feel that this is an over-reaction but others are saying that it’s just too sexy for billboards and mags.

According to reports, 61% of Allure magazine readers believed the content to be suitable for public consumption while 39% labelled it ‘inappropriate’.
