- GOING BANANAS
-
- Banana Republic not only placed ads in _Out_ magazine, but an ad
- for the hip clothing chain in _Vanity Fair_ featured photographer
- Bruce Weber's layout of a male couple (labeled 'free souls') with
- one model caressing the other's chest.
-
- Next, a Banana Republic spread in _Harper's Bazaar_ featured on
- one page a male couple and on the opposite page a female couple
- embracing.
-
- Whew! Send thanks to:
