Dolce and Gabbana founders Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana are now facing the heat as they are now boycotted by feminists who are outraged by a fashion ad depicting what looks like a tres chic gang bang.

The ad shows three bored hunks looking on as a shirtless fourth man pins down a lithe model wearing a swimsuit and high heels who is arching her back, the New York Post reported.

Fashion publicist Kelly Cutrone tweeted that "I guess simulating gangbangs are fine but IVF and same-sex marriage are not, life according to @dolcegabbana,".

Cutrone added that wish she was home so she could make a video of herself cutting up her Dolce and Gabbana clothes.

Cutrone said that when she saw the disturbing ad she was literally in shock adding that the duo was crazy.

The Italian designers, who are also against same-sex marriage despite 23 years as a gay couple, sparked a firestorm last week by calling IVF offspring "synthetic children" in Panorama magazine.
