It’s called target marketing. His disgusting ads would keep me away even if I could wear his clothes. Every business is not meant to serve every person.
My local mall is only open because of these type of teen stores. They employee 100’s of young people and help keep the other stores and food court open because the parents shop while their kids are shopping in A&F/Hollister. I have to wonder what is the motivation to drag up a quote from 2006 other than to try to shut down a private business with feigned outrage from parents who perceive them to be “bullies”.
Oh and it is vanity sizing. Size 10 women’s shorts in A&F have a 34/36” waist and usually have lycra for more stretch.
This quote is all over the net. I am on another board with mothers and they are all outraged. Ironically the mom leading the rampage is a Mass liberal and she told everyone they should shop American Apparel because they pay a “living wage” and have healthcare. So I Google Image “American Apparel” to see the type of clothing she is talking about. Just let me say their ads are NSFW. Apparently AA got back in the news after the Bangladesh factory collapse.
