Let us take a moment to throw back our heads and cackle with full-throated, schadenfreude-infused mirth: Abercrombie & Fitch, that floundering mess of a company whose corporate strategy can best be summed up as "Extremely thin hotties only (no fat people allowed)," is now introducing larger sizes for women because they're …
For years, Abercrombie & Fitch's hiring practices have been under scrutiny. And now, France’s official human rights watchdog organization has set its sights on the retailer, launching an investigation.
Unless you regularly shop for plus-size clothing, you may not realize how fucking hard it is to find plus-size clothing in stores. This is a big deal, since time and time again, we hear that the average American woman wears a 14 or 16. The size at which "plus" begins.
Like many apparel stores, Abercrombie & Fitch encourages its employees to dress "on brand."

In the course of an age-discrimination lawsuit brought against Abercrombie & Fitch by a former pilot, the weirdly specific rules governing the care and feeding of C.E.O. Michael Jeffries while on his private jet have become public. And it sure is interesting.
Ah, but to remember the racist, sexist, absurdly expensive glory days of Abercrombie & Fitch. Sure, American Eagle was more resonably-priced, and Hollister had that creepily dim lighting that made your mom almost poke her own eye out by walking into a palm frond, but Abercrombie had those bags with the half-naked people …
When we came across a blog post featuring a thrift store Abercrombie & Fitch find — a t-shirt displaying fake books like "Boy-Ology," "(We've Got) Chemistry", and "Art — of Chasing Boys" (GOOD ONE, GUYS) — we wondered what the store's doing to make young women feel inadequate these days.
A former Abercrombie & Fitch employee whom the brand scouted to become a model is now suing over a photo shoot where he says he was directed to masturbate on camera. It's far from the first time Abercrombie has been the target of lawsuits — in recent years it has been fined by the courts for engaging in employee…
You have obviously been sitting around listening to Carly Rae Jepsen's ubiquitous smash hit "Call Me Maybe" on an endless loop, because what else would you possibly do with your time? But be honest: have you also quietly been thinking that what this song really needs is more abs? Like a shit-ton of naked abs? Well, then …
Photographer of young naked people Bruce Weber announced on his official Facebook page that he'd completed four new "Web films" for Abercrombie & Fitch — all of them were wrestling-themed, and one ended with two wrestlers looking into each other's eyes and leaning in for...a full-on dude-on-dude forehead kiss, bro.…
