Tasteful American Apparel Ad Hawks U-Neck Dresses In The Midst Of Sandy's Massive Destruction

Last night American Apparel sent out an email blast in the midst of Hurricane Sandy (ironically, most of their targeted audience had already lost power by then) to launch a sale intended for “bored” shut-ins in the path of the storm. Nothing like power loss, upset pets and wind-noises outside that sounded like an angry, toothy blowjob from God to totally bore you, amirite?

Anyway, there’s a silver lining to all this destruction, Ad Week reports:

SPANDEX ONESIES FOR EVERYONE!

But American Apparel wasn’t the only retailer who employed tacky storm-springboard advertising.

Gap later issued a semi-apology via Twitter; still nothing from American Apparel. Cute.
