Abercrombie did man butt, so American Apparel got Charlotte Stokely and Faye Regan to do softcore porn. Idk who those people are but is the latter that squarejawed redhead somebody posted itt

So is there any legal action being taken against that sleeze? Because if not he probably got away with banging a bunch of pornstars & catcalling his employees (probably banging them too)

myDad posted:So is there any legal action being taken against that sleeze?

The guy's speed-dial is probably all sexual harassment lawyers. The fashion industry is just incredibly sleazy overall, or so I've been told, and photographers and editors pressuring models for sex is incredibly common. The exceptional thing about Charney is that, much like Terry Richardson, he doesn't even try to hide the fact that he's a creep, neither in personal appearance nor in the style of work. I mean you'd think any jury would convict them on their looks alone, but nope, Charney has never been convicted, and Richardson has photographed Obama.

Where are they putting these advertisements? There was an AA near me but it was a fairly small spot in a busy mixed-use area, and there weren't any risque photos or posters in there. Are the putting up these Softcore Porn Billboards on major LA offramps and poo poo?

C. american apparel? Close to 90 percent of Gildan's 42,000 employees are Caribbean and Central American countries where costs are lower, and the company does not manufacture clothes other than socks in the United States. Gildan had previously said it would take into account that American Apparel's U.S. manufacturing heritage is a component of the brand, but had noted that its manufacturing plan would also consider factors like transportation and energy costs. American Apparel LLC said it had started to lay off staff on Monday, after Canadian apparel maker Gildan Activewear Inc (GIL.TO) withdrew its initial plan to acquire some of the bankrupt U.S. fashion retailer's manufacturing operations. Gildan won the rights to American Apparel's brand with an $88 million bid in a bankruptcy auction last week. It had previously indicated it would assume some of its manufacturing operations, which had made the brand synonymous with "Made in the U.S.A." http://www.reuters.com/article/us-americanapparel-layoffs-idUSKBN15025M

Well, western middle-class feminism has largely been co-opted into being neo-liberal capitalist window-dressing , where emancipation and consumption have become interchangeable. Buying into the AA image is to signal that you are a liberated, modern woman who enjoys a bit of raunchy fun, and not "frigid" and "uptight". But in reality, you have only internalised the male gaze - sexual liberation, beginning in the 1960s, has never been about the liberation of women, but the male fantasy of the theoretically unlimited availability of pussy (and arsehole, I suppose).

So... sex doesn't sell? I guess the only thing left to do now is to wait and see if American Giant goes bust in 10 ten years' time, so we'd have a control group. Seriously talk though, besides American Giant, is there any other company to whom I can pay for a plain US-made t-shirt, without having some stoned barely-legal Midwestern girl on my conscience?
