A New Jersey teenager's Facebook post is garnering lots of attention on social media after she called out American Eagle Outfitters for inconsistent sizing.
"We agree fully with Missy that women are so much more than numbers, which is why we are so strongly committed to body positivity," Chad Kessler, the company's global brand president, said "Like every retailer, we strive for consistency and clarity to help our customers make decisions. We've reached out to Missy to get her feedback on her shopping experience and look forward to engaging in a discussion around this important issue."
"I do worry about the message younger girls have with media promoting 'the perfect skinny body.' They have been convinced that the smaller size you are, the more beautiful you are. This is not the case, and I think it's important to show that clothing size should not define your beauty," Rogers wrote. "If a size 10 is what a size 4 use to be, what message are you implying to younger girls?"
American Eagle responded to Rogers' post.
