Banana in public

Retouching fashion pics is a current area of controversy in the UK but labelling "Photoshopped" images is alien to US culture (or couture). However, American fashion website jezebel.com seems to be constantly watching online catalogues for blunders.

Jezebel found the aptly named Banana Republic doing a quick change when it published the latest men's slacks. It allowed casual viewers to vada the omi's kaffie basket in its un-shopped glory, as Polari-speakers might put it. Shortly afterwards, the website retouchers were hard-pressed to replace the image with a less outstanding example of their work.
