Bidding good bye to the last year is a good opportunity to enjoy and merrymaking. New York City is world famous for celebrating New Years Eve. But there are some other destinations to break the monotony and here are those.
Pirelli Calendar 2016 is a Paradigm shift from the usual they have been publishing for the last 50 years. An Italian firm who manufactures tires, Pirelli has been infamous for their kind of pornographic calendars where they objectify women and publish semi-nude clicks of supermodels.
The calendars, a PR stunt by the company, are never publicly sold but gifted to an elite group of V.I.P’s. The previous year’s calendars have featured names like Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Lara Stone and Karen Elson etc in provocative and naked poses. But in a radical change, this year calendar showcases women who are achievers in their respective fields.
For a first time the calendar gives substance more importance than body measurements. Instead of objectifying females the main attraction of this year calendar is these women’s inspiring lives.
