In the first image displayed we are able to see the classic stereotype of a home. The woman is, of course, tending to the cooking, while the man is dressed up in a professional business suit. The woman is perfectly done up with absolutely no flaws. The quote at the top of the ad implies that a woman's job is only to cook and perpare meals for her husband. The ideology of this image portrays that women should always look 'perfect' for their husbands and tend to their every need. Another interesting factor of the image is the fact that they both look and seem very happy with the roles they are each given. The woman looks completely content with being a housewife, and the man looks content 'bringing home the bacon'.
The second image is an ideology of women of color portrayed as animals. The woman in the Moschino ad is hung up on the wall, almost like a picture. She is just hanging there, half naked, dressed in animal print. One interesting detail of the picture is the way her mouth is portrayed. To me, it almost looks savage. Her body is so dark and her mouth is highlighted in an animal-like nature. This adds to the ideology of women of color as animals or wildly exotic.
