That is what we want." Head of womanswear Francisco Costa says -- most likely with a hair toss -- "Please! It's so, like, old news. Don't you think we should be a little ashamed for even having to discuss? I mean, it's great for us. So if you want to talk about it, let's talk about it. But there was no intention of making that controversial. Just make beautiful ads. And they're beautiful ads. And I think, you know, we're such a forward society, but we tend to be a little prudish sometimes. It's New York City! It's the 21st century! Honey, we have to move on! We have to move on."
