GOING BANANAS

Banana Republic not only placed ads in _Out_ magazine, but an ad
for the hip clothing chain in _Vanity Fair_ featured photographer
Bruce Weber's layout of a male couple (labeled 'free souls') with
one model caressing the other's chest.

Next, a Banana Republic spread in _Harper's Bazaar_ featured on
one page a male couple and on the opposite page a female couple
embracing.

Whew! Send thanks to:
