Adverts that were banned by ASA

the ASA banned an advert made by Deisel design company, they had posters that advertised their jeans, with posters showing women taking inapporopriate picture of themselves whilst a lion stalked them http://www.thefirstpost.co.uk/assets/library/A100630diesel426--127789567730611400.jpg and a women flashing in front of a cctv camera, https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP7o2a5uSTSZww99KLwkiWaS8xMcHPTX625VCMSZtumJd1M1GWmrffanj6VOgm01W3WFEeK_um51PInUnQorCC-IUtZSVM-VTjQaGGgiSB-hZzR3ZRV4UJSpbPaWvHHnz6cq3wN5WXTVo/s1600/Diesel-ad-banned-by-the-A-006.jpg
"The ASA received 33 complaints about Diesel's posters, which fell into three categories. First that they should not be seen by children, second that they were offensive and third that they encouraged anti-social behaviour." this was taken from the following link

these adverts were seen to be extremely offensive towards mainly women and very inappropriate

another advert banned by ASA was cherly coles L'Oreal advert, there were complaints because she was wearing hair extensions claiming that the hair product made her hair look better. but the advert barely escaped being banned but was in the end. http://www.brandrepublic.com/News/1007147/Cheryl-Coles-LOreal-ad-escapes-ASA-ban/

ASA has banned Rimmels mascara advert with kate moss modelled after complaints thats she was wearing false eye lashes, when rimmel promised 'traffic stopping' eye lashes. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-485333/Kate-Moss-mascara-ads-banned-complaints-lashes-false.html

A advert made by Nike was banned, it was promoting their clothing and trainers , the advert was a women in her bathroom who closed her cabinate door and revealed a masked serial killer with a chainsaw trying to kill her, whilst being chased she had nikes trainers and clothing on, and nike claim that you can live longer by wearing their brand. this is an advert that shows an extremely terrifying situation where someones life is in extreme dange, it could be extremely upsetting and very inapproriate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_UOVFqjay0
