I've always wondered how Dress Barn stays in business. I mean, plus size ladies know they are fat, do they really want to shop at Dress Barn ? The mental imagery is gross.

I thought F.U.B.U. was "For Us By Us"?

Oh, wiki says that's a backronym. "original meaning of FUBU was 'Five Urban Brothers United'"

Naked & Famous is a cool name, Tricky reference and all, but I don't think I'd tell people I was wearing anything other than "N&Fs". Obviously they've done quite well for themselves.

I got given an ACNE lookbook when they started several years ago and I shook my head and laughed because of the name. They laughed all the way to the bank.
