Last week’s “What colour is the dress?” social media meme has been adapted by The Salvation Army South Africa for a hard hitting viral ad for its #StopAbuseAgainstWomen campaign.

Initial Twitter reaction was generally positive:

@salvationarmyuk @SalvationArmySA blooming powerful. All credit to your colleagues.

#StopAbuseAgainstWomen - something really rather good came out of what was a depressing day on social media. pic.twitter.com/FCPySnRo7Z

@SalvationArmySA brilliant campaign to #StopAbuseAgainstWomen that social justice marketing profs can learn from. #thedress #iwd

Social media done right. "@nmsonline: Advert against #domesticviolence based on #thedress by @SalvationArmySA. pic.twitter.com/qJ6eaGqzmQ"
