Dolce and Gabbana just can’t seem to catch a break, can they?

After having called IVF children ‘synthetic’ and offending practically everyone, a Spring 2007 ad campaign by the label which glorifies gang rape is gaining massive criticism.

The controversy started when Kelly Cutrone, fashion publicist, tweeted these pictures which show four shirtless hunks bending over a woman - her back arched, in high heels and red lipstick.

They had created controversy earlier in the week by speaking out against gay adoptions, ‘uteri for rent’ and ‘semen chosen from a catalog.’ This led to a furious outburst from Elton John, Ricky Martin, Courtney Love and a viral Twitter trend, #boycottdg.

Tsk, tsk.
