what to do with American Apparel ?
if You know fashion, you know American Apparel -- - Basics 101


the "vertically integrated" clothing line, the largest in the US A (FYI) ,, is known for their position in Fashion, their environmental policies && Humanitarian Rights


with 180 retail locations in 13 countries, it's no wonder this store is on the up and up, right their on the Front


"Meet Iris."

American Apparel Unisex Stripped Zip Hoody

but, QUESTION --- "Is there another side to A A ? "


after all, everyone knows of the American Apparel "tragedy",
the "daring midnight Raid"

where FBI agents stormed the LA American Apparel Compound and rescued 14 models from ( literal ) captivity // apparently it took nearly 20 minutes to cut through the holding-cell padlocks, where the malnourished models, ranging from 18 yo to 22 yo , were taken to an emergency safe house where they were given fresh clothes, food, and "access to soap"



Who would of thought of Seeing "evidence bags" like THESE ,,

quote unquote,, "the company's much-vaunted vertically integrated structure deliberately hid the unpleasant realities of this international model-exploitation ring"



mmmm Okay

STILL
many know of the creator and CEO of AA, Dov Charney, who has been dubbed, true or not, as one similar to the very much loved BORAT - --
only, he's from Canada



Dunno if Dov Charney is similar to Borat,
but what I do Know is that AA clothes kick some serious ass

Holding models captive, well, yes



I'll leave it to you to decide on American Apparel
