Woman makes ironic entry in American Apparel Plus Size Model Contest and Wins! But American Apparel Welches on Deal

American Apparel had a contest for "Plus Size" models, which an inventive and plucky young woman named Nancy Upton felt mocked overweight women. So she and a photographer friend created a fantastic response that mocked American Apparel in return.

And she WON the contest!

But the dastardly welchers at American Apparel didn't like that, so..

American Apparel replied:

"...Oh - and regarding winning the contest, while you were clearly the popular choice, we have decided to award the prizes to other contestants that we feel truly exemplify the idea of beauty inside and out, and whom we will be proud to have representing our company."
