I've always hated that fucking brand, especially when douchebros with multiple popped collars (yes, they used to do that) that faked a lisp in the early 2000s to try to get heterosexually laid wore that overpriced fake vintage shit like a uniform.
I'm both not surprised and a bit vindicated because that former CEO had takes about "no ugly people in his stores" and other cryptofascist shit for decades.
Very similar to the cases shown in the documentary, but in the entertainment industry:

That guy was talking about 'no ugly people'?????????????
It was a standing policy (no idea how enforced) that he didn't want "ugly" people working or shopping at his grooming pavilions.
it's always the people you most expect.
Also, I forgot what this guy looked like, with his Gary Busey ass face.
Mike Jeffries, Matt Smith, and Jim Jacobson.
Fake ass sounding, cracker names.
Ever see that silly thing that Abercrombie-wearing boys would do back in the early 2000s where they'd ritually "wipe their faces" with their shirts to try to show off their abs, sometimes in groups like preening peacocks?
Looking back, that was the CEO creep culturally grooming his own customers.
