American Apparel Models Freed from Lycra Bonds
14 American Apparel Models Freed In Daring Midnight Raid
Several models said they were initially drawn in by American Apparel's progressive environmental policies, sweatshop-free manufacturing, and youthful corporate identity. But their dreams of success were soon shattered. "Before I knew it, I was squatting on the floor in this humid room with a camera pointed at my crotch," said model Gabrielle, whose image can be found on the back page of this newspaper.
So that's pretty much the reason why I've avoided American Apparel for so long. Well, that and the fact that the disco pants scare the bejesus out of me. But I can no longer deny the awesomeness of the cotton thigh highs.
They may just be the greatest socks in the world. My legs now come in a glorious rainbow of fruit flavors.
