Re: is this ad racist ?
Racist no.
Though Islam isn't a race, but a religion. I think it's quite a clever advertisment, because besides being 'sexy' it grabs your attention, because of the suprise twist. Though I'd have taken it one step further, and shown her lifting her robes at the end...and standing at a urinal. Double whammy.

Re: is this ad racist ?
I used to have a lot of Arab clients, and you'd have these fabulously wealthy women dressed head to toe in black, and fully veiled, and the only way they could show they publicly cared about their image was that they all wore No.1 perfume by Clive Christian, which is about £185,000.00 per bottle.
It was such a sweet smell that I never spent much time wondering what else they were wearing.

Re: is this ad racist ?
true not racist. Since as garinda says islam is religion. And the woman is quite obviously not a muslim because its against their religion to show thier face in public or something such when they wear a veil and the fact she shows her body off...especially her legs.
Id say the add was ignorant at best hehe
