Fairy tales and Greek mythology are a constant source of inspiration in the realm of fashion and advertising. This Meltin’ Pot clothing ad campaign is the latest to draw from this rich source.

The print ads depict a modern take on old classics with the heroes wearing the latest from the Meltin’ Pot collection.

So which [fairy tales](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-wedding-dresses-1) did the Armando Testa ad agency in Turin, Italy tackle?

Instead of a [passionate kiss, poor Sleeping Beauty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleepless-beauty) gets a rude awakening with a car jumper cable on the hands of a dude in jeans and a leather jacket. Happy endings!

We also have the Greek myth ‘The Judgement of Paris’, where three goddesses: Hera, Athena and Aphrodite are judged by Paris, a Phrygian mortal. Finally, the third ad shows Beauty having her dance with the Beast in a funky denim gown.
