Online fashion stores are more likely than traditional retailers to use images that a Google tool classifies as "racy", BBC research finds. Google uses the term "racy" to describe skimpy or sheer clothing, strategically covered nudity or provocative poses. One of the companies analysed, Missguided, said its site reflected what appealed to its customers. The findings come as the Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) banned adverts from retailers Missguided and Boohoo.
