Twelve months ago, Lululemon Athletica was one of the hottest brands in the world. Sales of its high-priced yoga gear were explodi
7、ng; the company was expanding into new markets; experts were in awe of its “cult-like following.” As one observer put it, “Theyre more than apparel. Theyre a life style.” But then customers started complaining about pilling fabrics, bleeding dyes and, most memorably, yoga pants so thin that they eff
8、ectively became transparent when you bent over. Lululemons founder made things worse by suggesting that some women were too fat to wear the companys clothes.
