Luxury designer brand, Loewe, was forced to apologize after they produced a shirt and pants combo that a fashion group described as a "Holocaust concentration camp uniform."
"It was brought to our attention that one of our looks featured in a magazine and part of our Arts and Crafts ceramicist William De Morgan could be misconstrued as referring to one of the most odious moments in the history of mankind," the company said in a statement. "It was absolutely never our intention, and we apologize to anyone who might feel we were insensitive to sacred memories. The products featured have been removed from our commercial offering."
The Spanish brand sold the matching striped shirt and pants, which critics quickly pointed out the resemblance to Nazi-era Germany. Together the pants and shirt retailed for $1,840.

Oh. Too bad.
That’s horrible and disgusting. They are trying to trivialize the Holocaust.
It should be down shortly.
It makes sense cuz alll by itself it forms a new, secular FAITH.
It also is logical that there are therefore also assoiated fetishized baubles.
Easier than scripture, keeping kosher and going to Temple.
Is it something I said? I wasn’t aware that stating a simple fact in deemed inappropriate on Free Republic.
I didn’t design those things, just commenting on a Fashion fact. Vertical Stripes make you look thinner and Horizontal Stripes make you look Fatter. Just ask that POS Rat Nadless.
If the Stripes were Horizontal, they would look like what the Chain Gangs here in MS wear when they are clearing brush along the Highway.
Don’t see apparently what they see but maybe it is because I have gone blind from how ugly the thing is.
Love his toons though.
