CANDY R. WEI

2793 × 3431Return to Collage Gallery
A satirical collage-style advertisement for T.J. Maxx featuring a man in a dark suit leaning confidently against a person in a full-body purple dinosaur costume resembling Barney. The costume is unzipped, revealing a smiling man inside. The words “America’s Most Wanted fugitive” are humorously pasted across the costume. At the top, elegant serif text reads, “INVESTMENT DRESSING WITHOUT the INVESTMENT.” On the right side, there’s an ad copy promoting T.J. Maxx’s affordable designer fashion. The image mixes absurd humor with fashion advertising tropes.
