Is it just me, or are the pink (plastic?) parts with all the fashion logos on your midriff in the shape of small breasts? Why does the concept of a plastic girl have 4 boobs?

However, as a statement, I can't tell if this is for or against materialism, if the girl is suppose to look fake or not, if it is a statement on pop media's tendency to use sex to sell, but I'm leaning towards it being a statement about useing sex to sell stuff in advertising. It looks like the kind of image advertisers use in magazines. And thus the plastic or fake nature of the girl is in that advertising photos never refelct reality, plus the pun of encouraging credit card use. And that she is branded, or owned, by the major brands, is also a statement about that industry.

Nicely composed, shot, made-up, and lighted photo. With out the pink parts on the abs, I would beleive that it could be a very successful stock photo in the vein of fashion and advertising images.
