Despite filing for bankruptcy this week, American Apparel is still going strong. Say what you will about the LA-based company, but it's hard to imagine a world without its envelope-pushing campaigns and billboards, both of which have been unapologetically in our faces for more than a decade.
In honor of AA's favorite holiday, the brand is exclusively sharing its 2015 Halloween campaign with Racked LA, offering 12 costume ideas that nod to both pop culture and their own storied past. Modeled by employees and in-house models, the campaign offers everything, from '70s disco looks to Clueless-ish schoolgirls to AA's 2003 ringer tee/running shorts/striped socks moment that we remember all too well.
