    Is this the guy who said he didn’t want ugly people wearing his ugly clothes? Even though he himself is ugly as sin

      Yep, that’s him. The dude hates ugly people but apparently doesn’t own a mirror. I make a point of not attacking people for their looks, because it can’t be helped, and I’m not exactly Ryan Gosling over here lol… But when you make it the core of your business, then it’s fair game. It’s almost impressive that Mike Jeffries has managed to be uglier on the inside than he is on the outside.

        Did some reading on wikipedia and man this is so surreal. The whole brand sexualizes women and targets specifically kids. Even in that quote, he refers to the good-looking kids specifically.

        Never seen a vampire that looked like his teeth would shatter if he tried to eat an unripe avocado though
