Nordstrom's Chinky Asian Mannequin (aka Huh?)

Tuesday, May 01, 2012


I'm all up for department stores showing some diversity, but WTF is this?

Bowl cut? Check.

Eyes that look nothing like ours? Check.

Creamy white skin? Wait...what the hell...

Isn't the whole idea of a mannequin to at least semi-resemble a real person wearing the department store clothes so someone actually wants to buy those clothes (key phrase being "at least semi-resemble a real person" not a cartoon looking WTH am I staring at distracting me from actually buying clothes caricature)?

I'm going on the record to say yes.
