I watched the documentary.

They were totally racist, religion discrimination, etc.

They have pivoted to be more inclusive, fat models, plus sizes, etc.

However, their sales still suck balls.

I remember the Two Wongs make it White shirt.

I don't think they should have discriminated based on race/religion, they are hispanic, asian, black, etc. people that would want their clothes as well.

BUT, I don't think they should have done plus sizes. I get that America is fat and that opens your market, but when you market to everyone, you lose your niche. And their sales keep falling.

I see this approach with Lululemon hurting it in the long run as well. People want exclusive, they always do.
