gives new meaning to the term “skinny jeans”

[mouse over to see the original image]

Ever wonder why when you order something it doesn’t always look as good on you as it did in the catalog or on the website? Well, for one thing the people used to model the clothes don’t have average body types, but it is also sometimes due to the fact that the clothes themselves are Shopped.

J.Crew made the mistake of uploading the original image next to the Shopped image on a pair of pants in their online catalog. It shows that the pants were blatantly Shopped to make them appear to be not as bulky and lumpy.

It’s bad enough when they shop the models. But, when they alter the product, that kinda borderline fraudulent.
