Heading South For The Spring?
By Beth in American Apparel, Lower East Side, Smut Advertising on March 13 2007
Smut aside, the American Apparel ads are so much more alluring and of higher quality than the clothes the store sells. Having said that, I’m not sure this billboard ad (on the corner of Allen & Houston) isn’t towing the fine line or propriety just a bit too closely, even for the Lower East Side, that is. There are religious people still left there right?
Gothamist had a valid point though: “Must be hard for the people across the street to stare at a 40 ft beaver shot day in and day out.” I might add that the dudes loitering on the corner at all hours (and in the above pic) won’t be put out too much either.
