Using Women's Bodies to Sell Residential Developments

I came upon this series of ads in a local Las Vegas magazine (although I've forgotten which one; sorry). The first two images were at the front of the magazine.




I turned to page 13 to see what this super-skinny, barely-dressed woman was being used to sell.


Of course! Houses!

Note the very passive positioning of the model--she looks like she's about to faint, or maybe is in the act of fainting. And the background on the other two images appears to be gold satin--evoking satin sheets, perhaps?
