Just how contentious can an ad be when it’s deemed inappropriate for digital outlets Fashion Television and Sex TV? Well, when the City of Toronto is involved, not so very contentious. This spot created by Grey Worldwide, Toronto, was to be the TV portion to a campaign that ran through the winter, mostly in the form of print ads, for Toronto Fashion Week.

The spot, which shows a nipple become erect followed by the tag, ‘Cool fashion from a cold country’ was given the kibosh due to the city’s involvement with the event.
