Bonds Youth, an Australian underwear collection in many colours, patterns and styles, is demonstrated in a musical and dance “mash”, to the sounds of the Blondie track, Heart of Glass. The ad is a followup to the earlier Kaleidoscope campaign. Members of the Australian public are now invited to send in their own dance moves in a competition closing April 7, online at www.bonds.com.au/mash/.

Renee you may want to check out the print section – with ads such as Something Juicy for the Ladies, and the Naked Rugby League Calendar.
Love your website. Big fan of aussie ads and advertising in general.
You seem to have a bias though for ads that feature a lot of female skin lol. Not saying all the ads you post up are sexploitation, but when there is flesh to be seen on Duncan’s website, it is always female flesh.
Sex symbols go both ways. And you can’t say that the ads like the youth mash up by bonds is more “clever”then say some of holeproofs recent rio ads with Fifi and her big hunk of spunk advertising the 7 packs.
LOL. Not accusing you of sexism but…women as always are a huge consumer force, as are gay men. And metrosexuality is in full swing in Australia and shows no sign of being in decline. Would be fascinating if you didn’t shy away from ads featuring almost naked blokes. This is afterall a blog about ads. Not a blog about ones own sexual preference. So don’t feel embarassed to look at such ads objectively 🙂 LOL
I have looked everywhere and I can’t find the song on the bonds mash ad. what is it called?
Heart of Glass, originally by Blondie.
what is the actors name that does the last moon walk on the mash up advert?..or her agent
