Quick Picks: Armani's really bad nose job

Email thisPosted Oct 12th 2008 at 1:00PM by Josh Loposer

OK, we don't have a problem with wearing fur, and we think that the right to wear leather is the foundation of a free society. Still, we knew all along that Pinocchio Giorgio Armani's decision to double-cross PETA would lead to nothing but trouble.

To give you a little back-story: some time ago Giorgio supposedly announced that he was dropping fur from his line, but when his fall collection hit stores it was covered in the stuff. To make matters worse (in PETA's eyes), Armani even released fur-lined children's clothing.

That's why PETA protesters are picketing outside Milan's Armani Emporio this week with these hilarious signs. There's really no telling if this campaign will change Giorgio's mind, but we seriously doubt it.

On a different note, this poster is definitely our pick for Photoshop Disaster of the Year Award. Is that a finger that they photoshopped onto Giorgio's nose? Nice.
