Designer Flu Masks All the Rage
Get your Berez Obama Designer Flu Masks...Get em while their hot..
NEW YORK (Reuters) - If a flu pandemic is coming, but you have to get out and about, there is now a creative way to express fear.
That seems to be the approach at DIGO, the New York ad agency behind a line of humorous designer masks that will allow people to stand out from the crowd as they attempt to fend off the swine flu virus.
“When we saw swine flu panic taking hold, we felt that re-envisioning the face mask, this icon of fear, into a canvas for more creative, playful sentiments was a way to say we have nothing to fear but fear itself,” said Mark DiMassimo, DIGO’s CEO and chief creative officer.
“Life goes on, enjoy yourself, express yourself. If you want to be careful, don’t make that all that life is about,” said DiMassimo, who envisions an initial run of 25,000 masks for $100 each along with a certificate authenticating them as part of the first printing.
