Two days after Jezebel noticed the overzealous retouching on Ann Taylor’s website, the company chose to respond today, via Twitter. From their feed:
@jezebel Be sure to lookout for better photos on our site in the future!
@jezebel We want to support and celebrate the natural beauty of women, and we apologize if in the process of retouching that was lost.
@jezebel We agree, we may have been overzealous on some retouching but go forward we’ll make sure to feature more real, beautiful images.
@jezebel We wanted to respond to all the buzz about the retouching on some of our images.
However, Jezebel notes that none of the images they made an example of, which were only a few of the offending images on the site, have been taken down.
