"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" - some believe the first written example of this saying is in Greek in writings from the 3rd Century BC. The human form in all its colours, forms, shapes and sizes has been a source of inspiration to artists throughout the ages. It has also been a source of titillation and pornography for just as long. The human mind lurches from the sublime to the crude with alarming rapidity and often without the slightest reason. My art is another's pornography and his pornography may be another's art. If a breast enhances the fashion and is an integral part of the design then why not photograph it as such? If the fashion needs an exposed part of the anatomy in order to get someone to look at the design, then IMO the design is not worth looking at in the first place - it should be able to stand alone on its own merits and a good fashion photographer will be able to show it off to its best advantage without any flash of flesh. By the way Ben I like the Thumbnail LOL
