USA: A&F Blasted Over Underwear For Youngsters
Controversial youth-oriented fashion retailer Abercrombie & Fitch today came under fire from the American Decency Association (ADA) for selling thong underwear with suggestive messages in children's sizes. The firm, which last month was forced to pull a range of T-shirts featuring stereotypical portrayals of Asians, is now courting controversy by selling skimpy kids' lingerie with phrases such as "eye candy" and "wink wink".
