On micro-blogging site Twitter, some people have already shown their disgust for the ads. One user said: "Really, Harvey Nicks? Really? They're certainly pushing the boundaries." Another user tweeted: "you are kidding about these aren't you? *checkscalendar*" One woman posted: "that absolutely does not make me the slightest bit inclined to shop there!"One tweet read: "Anyone in advertising? Even if not - take a look at the WORST advertising I've ever seen & it's for @Harvey_Nichols
