Benetton is known for its sports sponsorships, and for its "United Colors" advertising campaign. In 1982, Benetton hired Oliviero Toscani as creative director, which led to a change in advertising focus towards raising awareness for various issues worldwide. [14] In 1984, Toscani photographed the first multiracial ad for the brand. [3]

In the early 1990s, Toscani co-founded the magazine Colors (also owned by Benetton) with American graphic designer Tibor Kalman (1949-1999). With the tagline "a magazine about the rest of the world", Colors built on the multiculturalism prevalent at that time and in Benetton's ad campaigns, while remaining editorially independent from the group.
Colors (stylised as COLORS) was a quarterly print magazine about 'the rest of the world' funded and published by the Italian Benetton clothing company. [1] Founded in 1991 "as a way of communicating the intelligence of the Benetton brand to an extremely sophisticated consumer", [2] it was published worldwide in multiple bilingual editions.
In the advertising business, this combination of frightening, gory and/or offensive advertising material is known as "shockvertising" and is often considered to have been pioneered by Benetton, the Italian clothing retailers which created the line United Colors of Benetton, and its advertisements in the late 1980s (see Benetton below).
