I don't know if it's something that needs to be addressed. People who are more lenient are the target demographic more than people who would otherwise not rely on an online service.

EDIT: On an unrealted note, the name "Forever 21" is incredibly sad.

I've always assumed that Forever 21 appealed most to the under-21 crowd.

Just as "Seventeen" magazine is typically read by girls under the age of seventeen.

True. But the interesting part is how those above 21 will shop there for the disposable clothing. A 30 year old can get a dress, in their size, for around $25 (further supporting 99dresses' business model).

Why do you think Forever 21 is sad?

I agree. Peddling the illusion that a woman can remain 21 -- or should even want to -- is depressing.
