As one Madrid neighborhood faces gentrification, the local working girls have banded together to protest the loss of their workplace. Instead of picket signs, though, they tried something different: a fashion show.
As well as objecting to the gentrification of premises they have worked in for many years, the prostitutes wanted to reach out to their neighbours and show that they are not a threat to the community.

Interesting approach. I don't know if it'll improve public relations, but maybe it's a start to more dialogue.

A great 'alternative fashion story' bet that won't appear in the women's mags
