Sweetbitter meets Valley of the Dolls in the extraordinary true story of a young woman who arrives in shiny LA with a new job at American Apparel, only to find that not all that glitters is gold (lamé leggings). At the turn of the new millennium, LA is the place to be. "Hipster" is a new word on the scene. Lauren Conrad is living her Cinderella story in the "Hills" on millions of television sets across the country. Paris Hilton tells us "That's hot" behind the biggest sunglasses imaginable, while beautiful teenagers fight and fall in love on The O.C. Into this most glittering of supposed utopias, Kate Flannery arrives with a Seven Sisters diploma in hand and a job at an upstart clothing company called American Apparel. Kate throws herself into work. Having a job at American Apparel also means being a part of the marketing campaigns themselves. Stripping down in the name of feminism. Strip Tees is a fever dream of a memoir--Hunter S. Thompson meets Gloria Steinem--that captures a moment in our recent past that's already sepia toned in nostalgia and a fearless portrait of a young woman who must choose between what business demands and self-respect deserves.
