Controversy: This ad has obvious sexual connotations, which may have been ignored if Dakota Fanning wasn't under the age of 18. Critics slammed this ad for sexualizing children.
Verdict: It is important to be careful when using children for advertising, especially if the ad is going to be controversial, and using a child in a sexual way is never okay. In Marc Jacobs defense, however, Dakota Fanning was just months away from turning 18 when these photographs were taken, which hardly makes her a child. None-the-less, probably not a good idea.
Grade: D
