With their quasi-perverted finger on the pulse of the nation's hipster demographic, Dov Charney and his cohorts at American Apparel had the not-so-brilliant idea to come up with some DIY costume ideas for notoriously indecisive twenty-somethings. The minds at American Apparel actually came up with quite a few ideas, but some work much better than others. The unifying theme, as always, is AA's trademark ability to insert soft-core porn into every situation. After all, aren't slutty costumes what Halloween's really all about?


In our opinion, far and away the best -- and most offensive -- costume you can easily construct using stuff you bought at American Apparel is the Tennis Player costume. Presumably inspired by Monica Seles, they make no mention of the tragic no. 1 tennis queen who was literally stabbed in back with a steak knife by a psychotic Steffi Graf fan. We guess that's pretty spooky and Halloween appropriate.

Other honorable mentions go to the sexy "Gold Digger" costume made up of a gold lamé tube top and mini skirt (shovel not included), the "Fitness Guru," and of course the NSFW "Nudist Colony," which to our surprises only features simulated nudity.
