The It’s All in the Lace campaign with model Nathalie Darcas is on Bras N Things Macarthur Square shopfront window.
You worry for young children and teenagers, Ms Cagney told the local Macarthur Chronicle. Is it the image we really want to see of women? You are not going to see people parading around the shopping centre wearing lingerie.
You dont see that type of lingerie and poses on daytime TV.
Its an unrealistic view of women and to me it is sexually suggestive. I dont think it is necessary.
Bras N Things Macarthur Square is promoting the The All in the Lace campaign with large posters depicting six models dressed in lacy lingerie displayed on the shop windows.
With youth facing social issues of eating disorders, self esteem and body confidence, Cr Cagney said a conversation over the stores advertising was needed.
I am bringing it up as a conversation that needs to be had, she said.
They are very unrealistic images. I dont think it is suitable for a place with so many younger children and families. You dont have a choice if you want to see it or not.

If they want the posters inside the shop that is fine. People going inside the shop are going there to purchase lingerie and if the posters are in there I wouldnt mind. The fact is these posters are in everyones face.
At the end of the day, it is up to the individual what they want to wear.
A Macarthur Square spokeswoman said Bras N Things Macarthur Square promotional campaigns were governed by the Advertising Standards Bureau.
As part of their lease agreements with us, retailers can promote their products and brand in line with advertising standards, she said.
We value customer feedback and always pass on any comments to our retailers.

In the heart of Manhattan on the 15th floor of Parsons corset style bra School of Design, Whitney Cheney gazed out the window at a giant gold hand perched atop a wax museum. The perfectly manicured fingernails and lined knuckles were simultaneously grotesque and fascinating amidst the hodgepodge of historic and modern architecture in New York City, and her own fingers itched to capture the feeling of it.
I corset style bra always have a little notebook and a pen with me because I'm always sketching something and jotting down an idea or a concept, said Cheney.
Initially, Cheney's clothing womens bikinis sale designs were primarily of the high fashion variety items that were worn by runway models. But today, those sketches mainly involve swimsuits for young girls. Cheney is the business guru behind LaLa Swimwear, a startup company selling modest two-piece swimsuits for girls ages 2-13.
The change of direction was significant suit underwear for Cheney, who left her fashion program early to serve a mission in Busan, Korea, for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Post-mission, Cheney graduated in entrepreneurship from Utah Valley University instead of returning to fashion school a choice she ultimately attributes to her faith in God.
