Considering the fact that he looks like an overstuffed Gary Busey, I don't think he's one to talk...

Now I use all those (except Abercrombie) and H&M but ya'll are hypocrites doing THE MOST. 
I know those name-brand stores have basic tees w/ their name plastered, but H&M is the definition of BASIC! I will buy a plain tee, or something basic like a jean-design tee and those cost literally $20+. I have plain colored tees and each alone cost like $12.95, and they're hoodies, jakcets, etc are basic pattern designs!
Ya'll do the absolute most, and people who brag about wearing that because they are "against popular clothing that's from 2011" are just as annoying.
Was H&M the first to put yellow on a bikini?

Was H&M first to tie-dye something?

No! So ya'll need to stop w/ this "Aero/Hollister/etc is basic and 2011" when H&M is very well basic ass designs, and stuff that was made and thought of before 2011. Again, I shop at both but I can atleast say the name-brand ones try to be witty, doing a plain and tye-dye clothing line is the definition of used/tacky though it is cute at times.

Calm down, sis 
I just like buying clothes without any brand names on them unless it's like a higher-end brand like Burberry or Lacoste or something. That's why I like H&M because it has basic clothes for pretty cheap and the only place you see the H&M logo in on the tag. But I do have a couple American Eagle polos still kicking around. Do what you want, but I don't want all my clothes saying 'HOLLISTER EST. 1977' across them. Like... sorry

Exactly. A&F is still cool, people here are just saying that cause their feelings hurt. Anyway I don't really shop at AF, but I love their sweats. And like you said all these stores are the same crap.

I'm not mad, ATRL seems to think anyone who has a literacy level to type more than 2 sentences is fuming.
But I just think it's dumb to call something basic, but only like clothes that are basic designed.

I like having simple, brandless clothing basics like shirts, polos, shorts, pants, cartigans, etc to incorporate into an outfit with some nicer, higher-end brand clothing. Not everything you wear has to have a logo on it. H&M have some simple designs, but when I said all the mall brand were basic, I was talking about the brands themselves being basic. I used to wear Hollister, Abercrombie, etc a lot when I was a teenager but I'm growing up, I'm in my twenties now. I just don't use them anymore.

That store is just trash, he is making his brand look bad. I don't care if he wants to market attactive people and not market fat people but thing that bothers me about his store is what his definition of "being attractive" being white? having blonde hair? Why won't you hire other good looking models who are not white? White male models are not the only attactive people. Coming from a white male, I can't support something like that. It comes off ignorant.

To me, it sounds like just wants market "attractive white people" not attractive people in general. If his policy is all about marketing good lookig people, then hire any attractive person but all I see is white models.

Not his overly plastic potato head looking self talking about looking good. 
Honestly, I like some of their clothes, but their way of going about things is pretty scummy.

Dead @ you thinking everyone who genuinely doesn't care for their stuff is obese or ugly. You must've skipped over the racist undertones. Even if that weren't the case, I really don't care for their stuff. It's not my style.
Anyway, sis, you're always saying something just to say something.
