If that's what he's into... sounds like everyone who joins in his little game is pretty willing.

and who knows, maybe you'll end up in one of his ads... "Meet Maria......"

I hate their ads/in-store posters. They're very creepy, so this doesn't surprise me.

Sounds like Happy Holidays, and so much more ...

Good luck to these three women and their attorneys--there are times when the conventional wisdom is true, perhaps he will learn that now

Wonder what his criteria for male employees are ...

they were male emplyees...


i don't think dov is a bad guy.. unless those women's allegations are true, of course...

/\ well, you seem to be the only one. american apparel is huge. not only as its own brand, but also as base stuff. they do band shirts and other stuff that gets printed on.

People are too quick to judge someone on here, based upon a single article... I'm sure you could make ANYONE look like a weirdo, and even easier those in the fashion industry. Personally I have a level of respect for the guy.

 

[Little Tiny]

This guy is a REAL RIOT!!!!!
-i can't recall seeing a single ad...could anyone post some?

Is it bad that I find him less creepy than the Abercrombie and Fitch guy? Cause I do...

^ Is it just me of does Shannon's butt look weird?

Did Mr Richardon shot the campaign?

And I like the brand as an image ...

What's wrong with using Eurasian looking girls for the campaign? I don't see anything wrong with that, especially given the fact that most fashion labels only use white people. Doesn't everyone have a reason for doing something their way?

Nobody is criticizing the fact he uses Eurasian girls. That's not the point.
The point is ALL the girls are Eurasian and the guy has a self-confessed fetish for Eurasian girls. If you add that to the facts the pics are explicitly sexual, and that he seems to be on Viagra all the time... well, it makes it looks like he uses his ad campaigns to recruits yet more playmates to feed his libido.
That's quite creepy.
But no racism here, the girls are quite pretty actually.

Oh,I have seen the ads before but I dont like them....
-they do fit in with our society!

funny enough, i was in american apparel yesterday and they had an article up on the wall. i didnt read it because i didnt have the time, but if it wasnt the one just posted here, it was very similar.

he really doesnt try to hide who he is if he has these crazy articles about him put up in the stores
