i'm sure glad all of these women get paid to jack around. maybe this explains why your clothes are so freaking expensive. get rid of a few of these mustached idiots and give that money back to the consumer. make it so more people can afford your products.

What? Do you think they work for the city?

my goodness...some people are just so miserable they hate to see anyone else having a good time

Dear anonymous: please...get some psychoanalysis - perhaps the mustache conjures up a bad memory? Leave the people who work at FP alone. Try appreciating their creativity and dedication. If you don't like the prices, don't buy. Stick to mass-produced crap from cheap department stores.

chill out- what's wrong with having fun?? Considering the beauty and intricate designs of their clothes, the prices are definitely reasonable!!

I think these photos are extremely humorous. Work and fun go well together. Keep up the good fun!

Anonymous you are a freaking idiot
so apparently you think people are not allowed to have fun at work
for the creative design team to take a break and mess around is costing free peoples products to go up? really?
that is so ridiculous
yea the products are on the pricey side but you are paying for creative quality products. i'm a student and i definitely can't afford it, but i still appreciate the designs.
and hey there are good sales!
geez

Did the poster consider that maybe these hard-working girls were on their lunch break? In any case, I know that at least some of them work 12-hour days regularly... sheesh!

Woooo does that shirt say carolina in the background? If it does awesome! I live in south carolina, cough cough no free people store here.. :[

Aww I think what the girls are doing is fabulous!! Honestly, shame on who ever brings them down! The quality, creativity, and individuality in each product comes from these hard working ladies who are the reason that we get to be inspired and wear the gorgeous clothing today! If it weren't for them there would be no creativity in the clothing and not that "special, magical touch" that free people is all about. One day I'd love love love to work at Free People...if there is no fun in the office, then it comes out in the clothing and designs. Best work comes from happy people...and an occasional silly thing is fabulous in my opinion because these girls are fabulous! It's a blessing to be working in such a happy, fun, but still hard working place and respect every single one of these adorable ladies! Keep it up!

....not to mention that these gals also have to deal with phone calls and emails from sourpusses like 'anonymous' all day, too. Who is probably a competitor.....
I think your creative work is stellar, Free People, from the clothes to the accessories to the displays in your stores. And I love the 'insider view' we get here,'Staches and all!

So there have been a few comments about the quality of FP clothing that I would like to address. We pay attention to the quality of our products, and it is our goal to deliver the best quality possible. Our designers and production teams are constantly working to ensure our clothes are the best they can be, from learning from mistakes to researching better facilities for production. Over the years, we have grown to a larger company and have been able to step up the quality of the production as well as the materials. We appreciate your feedback and would like you to know we are continuously improving in every way possible.

LOL -- some people are way too uptight. Just thought you girls might want to know that for the past few years, we've been honoring the men who wear 'Staches, year round. In fact, we call them ProStaches. We celebrate Mustache Friday once a year, that day falls on the first Friday of December. Visit our site and maybe you can have another Mustache Friday on our day - together.
