American Apparel’s advertising has generally been notable, but never for its restrained good taste. has never been known for restrained good taste in their advertising. They’re best known for the exact opposite of that, actually. This week, the company is getting some very badly wanted attention with a window display featuring mannequins in thin white panties with lush brunette lady gardens.

I really hate this chain.
Could they make themselves any more disgusting?
Girl on the right needs some clippers.
Get some Brazilians there STAT!
Clippers?! Try a hedge trimmer!
Merkin mania!
WHY?!?
(Have never shopped at that chain, and never plan to)
WEED WACKER!!!
I stepped in one in Stockholm, saw the gold lame leggings and walked right back out.

The stupidity of the stunt worked - we are all talking about their store today. Free advertising.
Except that none of us will set foot in the store.
So, unless they were going for an image-branding campaign, not tied to sales, I'm not so sure you could call it a success.
I don't understand it when people say that someone won something, because we are talking about them. they aren't making a dime from this conversation.
Someone on Facebook was saying that I was drawing more attention to those losers at Duck Dynasty by talking about them. I told him that I have not watched, nor will ever watch the show, but by talking about it, hopefully I am showing others that they shouldn't be watching it either.
And look how their season premiere went.
Well...I for one am grateful for this display.
Because if this never happened, I would have never come across the utterly delightful phrase, "lush brunette lady gardens."
