Steve Rubel notes that real world stores are opening virtual world versions of themselves:

Advergaming in games like Second Life is beginning to really take steam. The 3pointD blog has discovered that American Apparel is opening a virtual store inside the role-playing game. American Apparel has 130 physical stores worldwide, including over 30 here in the US. In-game ads - which this is akin to - will hit $400M, according to CNET.

There are people making real money by selling virtual real estate in Second Life; I wonder if this outfit will be selling virtual clothing for real money?
