Sex appeal

This is the CD front cover from Rihanna's single hard.

Sex appeal is shown in many ways from this picture.... Firstly with the clothes she is wear, and lets face it there isnt much... this tells us that she is naughty, and that she does not care what people think about her, her boobs are also popping out which is very racy. This is done because of the target market she is trying to appeal to, by this i mean she to men is someone that we all wish we could meet and could be our girl friends, so by not wearing much it rekindled the lust a male would have for her. On the flip side for a female not wearing much shows how sexy she is and makes them want to be like her, and also makes them feel they can be like her.

There is also the position she is in. She is sticking out her bum to show it off, and to also show people her curves. The photo is also side on... which shows the 2 sexiest parts of a women... the breasts and bum. She is looking down away from the camera which makes us feel like she is being shy or innocent, which contrasts with everything else in the frame.

She has her arm up and folded behind her head, which would show us that she knows the camera is on her, and she is trying to seduce us. Having the arm up exposes more skin and shows the side of her breast, this is down to give the effect like its a picture from a lads mag, which would appeal to the male consumer.
