Industries taking advantage of minors

I think I should talk a little about my Vogue pictures.
I'll mention how the meaning of "dressing up" has evolved over the years. 
I also want to mention how various industries take advantage of young children in order to gain attention and cause controversy.
A prime example would be the band Scorpions who released an album in 1976. The album was called Virgin Killer and the cover featured a completely nude 10 year old girl, Jaqueline. The girl is posing provocatively and her genitalia is subtly covered by imposed image of cracked glass. The cover caused quite a stir in many countries and was therefore banned in a number of nations.
For the bit about "dressing up" I'm gonna compare how children usually dress up to the Vogue Christmas issue. Nanzi :)
