The weekends are pretty mellow around here, but this post and its picture surely got someone’s attention.

Oh hey, this reminds me. Did I ever mention that some of Pulpconnection’s previous posts about Abercrombie & Fitch were used in a college paper about cultural norms? I couldn’t decipher the parts about semiotics and autoethnography.

What ever gave you that impression? Surely, the recent words of the A&F CEO admitting as much can’t be the first time this thought crossed your mind.

From a 2006 interview with CEO, Mike Jeffries.

We go after the attractive all-American kid with a great attitude and a lot of friends. A lot of people don’t belong [in our clothes], and they can’t belong. Are we exclusionary? Absolutely.

You must have suspected something after seeing their posters and signs over the years, right? Here’s their latest #abercrombiehot shot.

Does this A&F image remind you of Twilight?

Or maybe it’s just pure coincidence with the timing of the final Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn Part 2. This won’t be a first time for one of these “coincidences.”

Not sure about the lighting on the poster’s face, purposeful or accidental?

Here’s one recently spotted at Ala Moana.


I must admit, these pictures make you stop.

If Abercrombie had a store for kids, would they have a sign like this?

While taking a glance at traffic here, I noticed a lot of hits coming in related to “Abercrombie & Fitch.” Oh, here’s why… there’s some ruckus going on about the risque nature of A&F photos featuring scantily clad models. In Virginia, an Abercrombie store was ordered to take down some pictures that showed:

three shirtless young men, with one man’s upper buttocks showing. The other image was of a woman whose breast was mostly exposed.

What say you? Too hot for the public?
