As an artist I see the temptation to do subversive shit and insert subtle messaging, but this is really quite overt. I suppose having that slightly disturbing edge makes you remember and makes it seem like a daring, interesting brand. Is it a play on the whole secret pedophile elite thing, and the association being that these are products used by the elite? I'm guessing so. Maybe it's the last taboo, the only thing that's remotely dangerous, now that genderbending is out. Pedophile chic is truly a disturbing trend, if it is a trend. Can we go back to heroin chic?

Anyway, I don't think this is an association you want to have with your products; "oh hi Linda, nice purse! Wait, is that that pedo brand?"
