1984
The Orwellian Hair Gel
As 1984 arrived, French media indulged in Orwell-themed retrospectives.
Jed created a hair gel ad where Big Brother had perfect fringe control. It was banned for being ‘ideologically muddled and alarmingly shiny’. Jed sold the concept to a nightclub in Marseille.
Mmm... did that actually happen?
Tell us about something that did:-)

Jed shot an iconic commercial for Ramazzotti in Milan. "Milano da bere" is still talked about these days. I am sure we drank a fair bit of the product during and after the shoot!

Nicki tells of beermats at the bar in Catanzaro where she worked in 1984… "Ottimista? Rammazzoti mista!"
