American Apparel operates nearly 200 stores around the world, and Montreal-born founder and CEO Dov Charney is enjoying his company's success. "It's sickening money, man," he told YoungEntrepreneur.com (he's 39). "We're minting money."
On a May 13th conference call, Charney said first-quarter sales were at $111.6 million, up 52% from the previous year. Interesting, considering that American Apparel manufactures their goods exclusively in the United States - unlike most U.S. companies.

LOL. This guy is so nutty. I read about his crazy antics before. I can't lie though, they know how to pick some fine models for their racy spreads. Realistic and yet still totally delectable.
EDIT: Sep is making me delete the links but honestly all YOU have to do is go to American Apparel's website and just look around. You will come across nip slips and sheer bras and what not quick.

Oh my multi-grain cheerios. They updated the sheer bra link. It's like the web manager went, "Oh. So I heard that you enjoyed that black lookin chick who went topless with the blue pants. We decided to get her to wear one of our sheer bras. How do you like us now?"
And then I went "It's like a real life sexy party on this website!"
And then Dov said "Hell yeah, all these sluts be looking so sexy all day all day. Come on and fap with me!"
anybody else in favor of turning this into an american apparel model thread?

yes made in the usa....
theyre ever so proud of claiming their clothes come from "Downtown Los Angeles"
anyone from california knows what downtown LA looks like. they might as well say:
Made in Downtown LA*

only issue is can we do it with the eyes of mods down our backs. I know of an interview with a model who worked for AmApp. I gotta find it again.
These women look like they could make me explode and jump around like Minerva Minx from Animaniacs just by being within 6 feet of me.
I want American Apparel baseball cards.

American Apparel has made more money off of nipple slips than womens wrestling.

Dov is definitely slimey. When (because it's only a matter of time) he gets fired I'm not sure if the company will ever be the same. I'll still never wear their clothes despite them having apparel for men as well as women. And, imo, there's nothing controversial about AA, they are just so damn good at being sexy.
is his company publicly traded? if not how would he be fired?

Generate enough of the wrong controversy that he'd be forced to get booted out. And yeah I'm not sure if it is publicly traded or not.
I guess I should really say that he'll actually lose in a court case and face some sexual harassment charges.

Yeah, AA is making way too much hipster loot for them to even think about making changes right now.

edit: deleted that shit, but if you are looking for store locations just google search.
The only NC store is in Charlotte, which is gay because I guarantee you they have a bigger fanbase around here with all these college kids.

Assuming he doesn't have majority shares.
Either way, I think AA is overrated. It's like a higher class Hanes. Everything is plain. That and their stores blow. Their employees are weird fucks.

Yes, the nipple slips and see-through tops. If you posted one of those, you'd better delete that shit.
