Crying Fowl

Remember this gorge photo? The dress is made of steamed artichoke leaves and kale, radicchio and cabbage leaves. I blogged about it back in January.

It's part of the Hunger Pains series, photographed by Ted Sabarese and designed by Ami Goodheart of SOTU Productions. Daniel Feld and Wesley Nault - who starred in Project Runway season 5 - constructed the dress leaf by leaf. The process took almost 7 hours to complete.

So, PETA debuted this ad in NYC a few days ago.

Love Cloris Leachman. Love the campaign. But I hear they didn't credit the original designers and not only is the dress eerily similar, so is the lighting and background. Hmm.

Thoughts?

BTW, I'm a huge animal lover with two rescued fur babies named Simba & Sabrina. I admit I love my filet mignon medium rare & In & Out hamburgers animal style.

Here's another photo from the scrumptious series... Meat & Potatoes.

Obviously, this one isn't from PETA.
