It may all be a moot point as the charges have been dropped:

By the way, this article also tells that the photos are window display posters so they were visible to children in the mall from outside the store. The article also talks about the $40,000,000 settlement where Abercrombie agreed to pay this sum to settle a discrimination suit against minorities.
