Is Dakota Fanning’s New Ad Too Sexy? (Photo)

Dakota Fanning is still only 17-years-old but hat hasn’t stopped Marc Jacobs transforming her into what has to been described as a sexy contemporary Lolita and here is the photo for you to see yourself.

Marc decided to pick Dakota, who is still underage, as the model for his new fragrance, ‘Oh Lola!’, and in the ad he decided to pay tribute to Vladimir Nabokov‘s 1955 novel, Lolita, which tells the story of a man having sex with an underage girl and he then becomes her step-father. How appropriate.

Speaking about the ads Marc told WWD “when we were speaking about who to use in the ads, I had recently seen The Runaways…I knew she could be this contemporary Lolita, seductive yet sweet”

Dakota herself spoke about the ads and said “humbled by the offer and said yes immediately,” no word on what parent groups think of the ad yet but I’m expecting at least one of them to give out.

What do you think about this ad? Is it disturbing or is it okay for the 17-year-old to pose like this?

Echoes of Brooke Shields famous Calvin Klein ad, made when she was just 14. I suspect we’d be appalled if the ages of the models under 18 in Vogue were printed alongside the ads.
