OK, major failure in communication. From my point of view the campaign - by Women On The Waves, who I admire - is poor because, as you said, you couldn't even tell what it was protesting. It's only when you read the About page that you find out that it's protesting conditions in Diesel's sweatshops - to quote

Women on Waves designed the hoax to expose the violations of women’s rights that take place in the garment industry. The hoax is a parody on the PR campaigns and the reluctance to address human rights by the fashion industry in general and Diesel in particular. It intends to show that violations of human rights never happen in isolation and that the right to a safe abortion is connected with the broader framework of social rights, workers rights and the right to autonomy.

Or maybe I'm misunderstanding. But that's my point, if it is as I think it is, then however laudable it's so obscure as to lose it's point. If it is otherwise, it's simply obscure.
