Gone Fishin

Yep,

summer vacation  has me 

in it's grips

and I've gone fishin, for the 

time being...

enjoying life outside of retail 

but always looking for new

 content, concepts and a fashionable life.

Fiorucci Redux?

The Wall Street Journal breaks this whole Abercrombie & Fitch thing wide open. Did you know that there's a gigantic line of tourists outside the midtown flagship? And that Abercrombie hires really hot people to stand around being hot, sometimes without their tops on?

The Abercrombie line is a constant source of mystery, but the WSJ does manage to dig up two new pieces of information about the store. First of all, several employees told the reporter without prompting that they're no longer allowed to take breaksuntil they've worked for six hours (up from five). And secondly, when asked why she was willing to wait in a giant line on the steamy Fifth Avenue sidewalk for access to a chain store, an Irish tourist cited "The smell...and the guys inside the door are so gorgeous. You feel like you're bringing a slice of America back."

Is it just me, or does this remind you of

FIORUCCI  in the1980's?
