Bloomingdales Apologizes For Super Creepy Holiday Ad

Bloomingdale's just made a pretty glaring mistake.

Yesterday, an Imgur user posted a photo of an ad from Bloomingdale's new holiday catalog that is troublingly suggestive of a date rape scenario. The department store's ad shows a woman laughing with a man looking at her. In between the models the advertisement reads: "Spike your best friend's eggnog when they're not looking." 

Um... no. 

Bloomingdale's apologized in a statement to Tech Insider yesterday . "In reflection of recent feedback, the copy we used in our recent catalog was inappropriate and in poor taste. Bloomingdales' sincerely apologizes for this error in judgment," a Bloomingdale's representative told Tech Insider . 

The brand also tweeted an apology: 

Despite Bloomingdale's apology, Twitter users continued to call out the brand, tweeting their thoughts about the advertisement using the hashtag #Bloomingdales.

To sum it up: Don't spike anyone's drink ever and definitely don't joke about it in an advertising campaign.
