I am writing this letter to you after I saw this shirt on HuffingtonPost.com.
REALLY? Don't play coy, Urban Outfitters. It isn't just a t-shirt. It's what is on the t-shirt. You know that your demographic is girls in their teens and early twenties. You know that you don't cater to the "eat more" sect. This shirt is an a-hole move by some a-hole designer who is stirring up controversy and bad body image issues.
I'm waiting for you to roll out an "Insert Finger Here to Vomit" tee.
Sincerely,
Alison

Wow, just when I reach a point where I can fit into their clothes, they go and do something to make me never want to shop there. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteHey - "Go figure" would be a better message on a t-shirt!
WOW I am at a loss for words...
ReplyDeleteHow about "Go eff yourself, Urban Outfitters"?
ReplyDeleteI'm SO with you. Disgusting.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's just a horrible looking dumpy t-shirt to being with. :P Seriously, what are they thinking?
ReplyDeleteWhat's worse is the model is obviously one of the Auschwitz chic. Not healthy. Not healthy AT ALL!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, and that model is practically a poster child for everything that is wrong with media images of thin women.
ReplyDeleteCould they not have put that on a model who at least looks healthy? Well, maybe they couldn't find one.
