What happened to American Apparel?

I used to shop a lot at American Apparel, as one might guess from my rainbow of identical hoodies. Comfortable, stylish, sweatshop-free casual wear at a reasonable price--that's what I live for. But passing by the downtown DC store recently, I noticed an awful lot of lame going on. Actually, Freudian slip; I meant lame'. Stretch lame'.

The only people I've ever seen successfully pull off stretch lame' are 15-year-old competitive gymnasts. Are you really asking us to wear this? I'll have to go with Jezebel on this one.
