If you thought Tom Ford was the king of the racy photoshoot then you need to check out the Suit Supply 'Shameless' ads. These ads feature well-dressed men in some extremely naughty situations.
The Suit Supply 'Shameless' ads were deemed so naughty in fact that the company had to pull them from its Facebook page. Personally I don't find these ads offensive at all, although they do seem a little too sexy for any social networking site.
