The Beauty That is Abercrombie & Fitch



I'm pretty sure I already wrote something about this famous fad of our generation but it just simply cannot be ignored, since a giant crotch might be staring at you once you get out of a cab as is portrayed down below:



Not that I mind the latter but there is just something intriguing about a clothing store that's supposed to advertised for their clothes, whereas their models are barely wearing anything. Now the ripped abs and the pale skin is quite an appeal, but can I actually buy that at A&F? I mean, think about this, you walk into a store and you ask, "Excuse me, I need some flat ass and a six-pack for my husband", and the associate would answer, "Flat ass in the basement and six-pack on the second floor behind the racks and the tight pecks." And this doesn't just apply to A&F. Have you seen the latest ads for Calvin Klein? The clothes barely show on the poster, I'm not even sure if they're advertising pants or panties. Now, I know that today's society is pretty much based and built on sex and...sex but some of us would still like to shop for clothes and know what they look like on these beautiful models. But I have a feeling that we're so used to drooling at windows with a line of Calvin Klein boxer and jockstrap boxes that seeing clothes and attire on them would just feel plain...wrong for lack of a better word. I mean, hell, I remember quite well, when I was about 14, I came in my pants in a Calvin Klein store in uptown Manhattan while I drifted away from my mother for a few minutes...it was a good day... ... ...back to the subject at hand, I'm not sure I would want to see that on my little brother in public. Come on, zip up! What am I shopping for? Will this look good on me? Odds are, I'm not gonna be walking down the street with a low rise, no shirt and ripped, shiny muscles. Can you imagine the streets if that were the case? There'd be accidents every hour on the hour due to distractions. Hello, common decency!!! So the lesson here simply put: WEAR IT!!! This sure ain't the garden of Eden.
