When you look at this JCrew product page, does anything stand out as peculiar?

If you’re thinking “Holy crap! Lounge crinkle tissue pants for only $39.99, what a steal!”, take another look. More specifically, check out the product sample images. Roll over the first two a couple times.

Yep. Likely as a result of a simple naming convention error during saving, two versions of the same product shot were uploaded: one before photoshop, and one after. After seeing the original version, the photoshopped version looks completely broken.

Gone are the days of using well concealed pins to better form clothes to mannequins – all hail the clonebrush!
