Behind the Scenes at Abercrombie and Fitch
Abercrombie & Fitch was launched in 1982. Some of the most famous
shoppers back in the day were: Ernest Hemmingway, Amelia Earhart, and even
former president Teddy Roosevelt. No one would recognize clothing from over a
hundred years ago because they look totally different today.
In 1988 Abercrombie & Fitch reconstructed its company to start producing clothing products. Since then they have reached the top of the carts throughout the clothing industry.
There is some controversy surrounding Abercrombie & Fitch. The main concern of some is the nudity in their catalogs. The created a full size black and white catalog with nude pictures of males and females. Since then, protests began and Abercrombie & Fitch suspended its production.

uncool. But, the A&F Quarterly production keeps on increasing. Recently it

It now becomes apparent that the A&F Quarterly was focusing on customer service, and updating styles. A new CEO was announced, the former CEO of Gucci. The new CEO has implemented a few changes around. Now, there are models standing at the front of nearly every store. Other changes include staff and management changes, and assignments to certain store areas.
The male models are simply greeters to all who come in the store. The company is stressing the importance of their models by further putting on their website that they need more models and they are accepting applications. Some models are even under 18.
