Legal and ethical framework for the use of nudity in marketing communications of companies of the fashion industry
Vénosová, Veronika ; Boháček, Martin (advisor) ; Votava, Tomáš (referee)
The thesis deals with the legislative framework governing the display of human nudity in marketing communications of the fashion industry. Its aim is to explore the legal and ethical framework which governs its use in advertising in the Czech Republic and selected EU member states (The United Kingdom, France, Italy) and the United States. Firstly, the very concept of fashion is defined, followed by historical overview that focuses on the methods of promoting fashion brands, with particular regard to nudity, from the very beginning of the 20th century to the present. Following is the current practice in marketing communications, including its online aspects. Thesis then describes the legal framework and ethical framework that regulates the use of nudity. It includes an outline of selected cases, when complaints about allegedly improper use of nudity in advertising were judged by state or self-regulatory bodies. There are also results of the poll among companies which already used nudity in their marketing communication and the results of the public survey. Work is concluded by prediction of the possible use of this phenomenon in the future based on an extrapolation of current developments.
