Organization and Business [Abstract]
Nature of Operations [Text Block]	Organization and Business American Apparel, Inc. including its subsidiaries (collectively the "Company") is a manufacturer, distributor, and retailer of branded fashion basic apparel products and designs. The Company manufactures and sells clothing and accessories for women, men, children and babies. The Company sells its products through the wholesale distribution channel supplying t-shirts and other casual wear to distributors and screen printers, as well as directly to customers through its retail stores located in the U.S. and internationally. In addition, the Company operates an online retail e-commerce website. At June 30, 2015 , the Company operated a total of 237 retail stores in 20 countries including the U.S. and Canada. Recent Developments - On May 11, 2015, the Company commenced a $10,000 "at-the-market" offering program. Under the program, the Company may, from time to time and at its discretion, offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $10,000 (but in no event more than 15,000 shares). The Company has used the net proceeds generated through the program for working capital and general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2015 , the Company had issued 4,121 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of $1,998 . Sales of common stock under the "at-the-market" offering program are at the Company's sole discretion and subject to the terms and conditions of the sales agreement related thereto, and there are no assurances that such sales will continue in the future. On July 27, 2015, the Company entered into a second amendment to the lease agreement for its headquarters and manufacturing facility in Los Angeles, California. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company will vacate one of the leased buildings (an under-utilized building not occupied by any manufacturing or distribution operations) by April 1, 2016, which, assuming timely payments, would result in a fifty percent, or $2,100 , reduction in annual base rent starting on April 1, 2016. Additionally, the amendment reduces certain rent, fees, interest and reimbursements incurred primarily from the first half of 2014 from $2,995 to $1,800 , which will be paid in eleven monthly installments from April 1, 2016 through February 1, 2017. On May 17, 2015, Jeffrey Kolb, a stockholder of the Company, notified the Company that he was nominating two candidates for election as directors at the Company's 2015 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2015 Annual Meeting"). The first nominee was Adrian Kowalewski, who served in various executive and consulting positions at the Company under Dov Charney from 2006 to 2014, including as Chief Financial Officer from 2008 to 2011, and as a director of the Company from 2007 to 2011. The second nominee was Gene Montesano, who had previously been proposed, but was then withdrawn, by Lion Capital LLP as one of its board designees in accordance with the Lion Investment Agreement. Mr. Kolb also proposed that the Company adopt a resolution that would repeal any provision of the Company's bylaws in effect at the time of the annual meeting that was not included in the Company's bylaws as of December 22, 2014. On June 7, 2015, the Company and Mr. Kolb entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the Company will form a new advisory committee comprised of industry executives, Company employees and other qualified personnel that will provide insights, guidance and strategic input for the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), (ii) the Company will use reasonable efforts to identify a new independent director with significant experience as a member of senior management of retail and/or apparel companies and appoint the new director to fill a vacancy on the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") prior to the Company's 2016 annual meeting of stockholders, and (iii) Mr. Kolb withdrew his notice of intent to nominate persons for election as directors of the Company and to present a proposal at the 2015 Annual Meeting. Gene Montesano, the co-founder of Lucky Brand Jeans and one of the candidates proposed by Mr. Kolb, will head the new advisory committee if he is willing and able to do so and has withdrawn as a candidate for election to the Board at the Company's 2015 Annual Meeting. In addition, Adrian Kowalewski, the second candidate proposed by Mr. Kolb, also informed the Company that he withdrew as a candidate for election to the Board at the Company's 2015 Annual Meeting effective as of June 7, 2015. On June 14, 2015, a member resigned from the Board, and the Board appointed Paula Schneider, CEO, to fill that vacancy. Liquidity, Going Concern and Management's Plan - As of June 30, 2015 , the Company had $6,852 in cash, $38,412 outstanding on the Capital One Credit Facility (as defined below) and $6,143 of availability for additional borrowings as of such date. On August 11, 2015 , the Company had $11,207 in cash. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had $210,564 aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes (the "Notes") outstanding. On April 14, 2015 , the Company paid $13,803 in interest on the Notes. The next scheduled interest payment on the Notes due on October 15, 2015 is approximately $13,900 . On March 25, 2015, the Company entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Capital One Credit Facility ("the Sixth Amendment") which (i) waived any defaults under the Capital One Credit Facility due to the failure to meet the obligation to maintain the maximum leverage ratio and minimum adjusted EBITDA required for the measurement periods ended December 31, 2014, as defined in the credit agreement, (ii) waived the obligation to maintain the minimum fixed charge coverage ratios, maximum leverage ratios and minimum adjusted EBITDA required for the twelve months ending March 31, 2015, (iii) included provisions to permit the Company to enter into the Standard General Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 7), (iv) reset financial covenants relating to maintaining minimum fixed charge coverage ratios, maximum leverage ratios and minimum adjusted EBITDA and (v) permitted the Company to borrow $15,000 under the Standard General Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2015, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and the minimum adjusted EBITDA covenants under the Capital One Credit Facility. For the April 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015 covenant reference period, its fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the Capital One Credit Facility) was 0.07 to 1.00 as compared with the covenant minimum of 0.33 to 1.00 , and its adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Capital One Credit Facility) was $4,110 as compared with the covenant minimum of $7,350 . On August 17, 2015, Capital One Business Credit Corp. ("Capital One" and such facility, the "Capital One Credit Facility") assigned its rights and obligations as a lender to a syndicate of lenders that included certain of the Company's existing creditors, including funds associated with Standard General L.P., Monarch Alternative Capital L.P., Coliseum Capital LLC and Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P., and was replaced by Wilmington Trust, National Association ("Wilmington Trust") as administrative agent. Additionally, on August 17, 2015, the Capital One Credit Facility was amended pursuant to an amended and restated credit agreement among the Company, the new syndicate of lenders and Wilmington Trust (the "Wilmington Trust Credit Facility"). In connection with such amendment, the syndicate of lenders received certain amendment and closing fees and reimbursement of closing expenses. The covenant violations existing at June 30, 2015 were waived under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. The Wilmington Trust Credit Facility provides for a $90,000 asset-based revolving credit facility and matures on April, 4, 2018, subject to a January 15, 2018 maturity in limited circumstances. Borrowings under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility are subject to specified borrowing base requirements which is increased by $15,000 , but such $15,000 increase cannot increase the borrowing base above $60,000 . Amounts repaid under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility cannot be re-borrowed. Borrowings currently outstanding under the Capital One Credit Facility will continue under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility and bear interest at a LIBOR based rate plus 5.0% or a rate based on the prime rate plus 4.0% . New borrowings under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility bear interest at a LIBOR based rate plus 7.0% or a rate based on the prime rate plus 6.0% . On August 17, 2015, the Company also entered into amendments to the indenture agreement governing the Notes and the Standard General Loan Agreement to permit the Company to enter into the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. See Note 7. The Company incurred losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and such losses might continue for the remainder of 2015. Based upon the trends occurring in the Company's operations since June 30, 2015 and through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Report"), together with the Company's current expectations and projections for the next four fiscal quarters, the Company believes that it may not have sufficient liquidity necessary to sustain operations for the next twelve months. T hese factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. As a result of the Capital One Credit Facility covenant default and the liquidity uncertainty described above, the Company has been working with its advisers and has begun discussions with certain key financial stakeholders to analyze potential strategic and financial alternatives, which may include, among other things, refinancing or new capital raising transactions, amendments to or restructuring of its existing indebtedness and other obligations, and consideration of other restructuring and recapitalization transactions. As of the date of this Report, substantial uncertainty exists as to the ultimate outcome of those discussions, and there are no assurances that such efforts will result in any transaction or agreement, or that any such transaction or agreement, if proposed and/or implemented, will be successful. In addition, whether or not any such transactions or agreements were implemented or successful, the Company's existing and any new investors could suffer substantial or total losses of their investment in its common stock. The Company continues to focus on implementing a turnaround strategy and has started implementing additional operational and financial processes and disciplines to improve liquidity and profitability. On July 6, 2015, the Company announced the next phase of its strategic turnaround plan including approximately $30 million in cost-cutting initiatives over the next 18 months. Cost-cutting measures will include closing underperforming retail locations to drive productivity improvements. In connection with these store closures, the Company will streamline its workforce to reflect a smaller store footprint and general industry conditions. Going forward, the Company will look to add new stores in profitable fast-growing territories while reducing its footprint in unprofitable and over-saturated markets. The Company is also implementing initiatives to improve working capital management, which includes stronger receivables collections, inventory reductions and improved vendor management. In addition, the Company continues to drive productivity from its manufacturing and distribution operations and consolidate its administrative and manufacturing functions. The Company is also implementing a merchandising calendar to improve new product assortment and availability for its retail and online stores. These new product initiatives, which did not exist during the first half of 2015, are expected to improve sales and inventory turnover at the stores. To that end, the Company added new members to the management team in the areas of planning and forecasting, operations, marketing, technology, wholesale, retail and e-commerce. Although the Company believes it has made progress under these programs, it operates in a rapidly evolving and often unpredictable business environment that may change the timing or amount of expected future cash receipts and expenditures. The Company's cash flows are dependent upon meeting future sales growth projections and reducing certain expenses. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company's planned operational improvements will be successful. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability of assets or the amounts of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Apparel, Inc. and its 100% owned subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The financial data of the Company included herein is unaudited. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain certain information that was included in the annual financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 . Readers are urged to review the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as well as other publicly filed documents for more complete descriptions and discussions. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, the results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The operating results and cash flows of the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates include: revenue recognition, inventory valuation and obsolescence; valuation and recoverability of long-lived assets, including the values assigned to goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment; fair value calculations, including derivative liabilities; contingencies, including accruals for the outcome of current litigation and assessments and self-insurance; and income taxes, including uncertain income tax positions and recoverability of deferred income taxes and any limitations as to net operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash (the amounts of which may, at times, exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits on insurable amounts) and trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables) relating substantially to the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment. Cash is managed within established guidelines, and the Company mitigates its risk by investing through major financial institutions. The Company had $5,429 and $6,361 held in foreign banks at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited by performing on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusting credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness. The Company also maintains an insurance policy for certain customers based on a customer's credit rating and established limits. Collections and payments from customers are continuously monitored. Two customers in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 41.4% of its total trade accounts receivable as of June 30, 2015 . One customer in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 16.6% of its total trade accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014 . The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which is based upon historical experience and specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While bad debt expenses have historically been within expectations and allowances established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that it has in the past. Fair Value Measurements The financial instruments recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets include cash, trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables), accounts payable, revolving credit facilities, senior secured notes, term loans and warrants. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying values of cash, trade accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate their fair market values. In addition, the carrying amount of the revolving credit facility from Capital One approximates its fair value because of the variable market interest rate charged to the Company. The Company employs a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date using the exit price. Accordingly, when market observable data is not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are used to reflect those that market participants would be presumed to use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on the level of judgment associated with inputs used to measure their fair value and the level of market price observability, as follows: Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than unadjusted quoted prices in active markets, which are based on the following: • Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; • Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets; or • Either directly or indirectly observable inputs as of the reporting date. Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The valuation policies and procedures underlying are determined by the Company's accounting and finance team and are approved by the Chief Financial Officer. In certain cases, inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Thus, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Level 1 or Level 2) and unobservable (Level 3). The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruption, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition could cause an instrument to be reclassified from Level 1 to Level 2, or from Level 2 to Level 3. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at either the actual date of the event or a change in circumstances that caused the transfer. As of June 30, 2015 , there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Summary of Significant Valuation Techniques Level 2 Measurements: Senior secured notes : Estimated based on quoted prices for identical senior secured notes in non-active market. Level 3 Measurements: Term loans : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including principal and interest payments and discount rate. A yield rate was estimated using yields rates for publicly traded debt instruments of comparable companies with similar features. An increase or decrease in the stock price and the discount rate assumption can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of team loans. See Note 8. Warrants : Estimated using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model. Significant observable and unobservable inputs include stock price, exercise price, annual risk free rate, term, and expected volatility. An increase or decrease in these inputs could significantly increase or decrease the fair value of the warrant. See Notes 8 and 11. Indefinite-lived assets - goodwill : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit, discount rate, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, depreciation and terminal value assumptions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or the terminal value assumption, in isolation, can have a significant effect on the fair value of the reporting unit. Retail stores : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit and discount rate. The key assumptions used in the estimates of projected cash flows were sales, gross margins, and payroll costs. These forecasts were based on historical trends and take into account recent developments as well as the Company's plans and intentions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or projected cash flows, in isolation, can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of the assets, which would have an effect on the impairment recorded. Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting basis and the respective tax basis of its assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined that such amounts will more likely than not go unrealized. Significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. The determination to record a valuation allowance is based on the recent history of cumulative losses and current operating performance and includes an assessment of the degree to which any losses are driven by items that are unusual in nature or incurred to improve future profitability. In addition, the Company reviews changes in near-term market conditions and any other factors arising during the period which may impact its future operating results. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be realized, any related valuation allowance of such assets would be reversed. Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. Management believes that adequate provisions have been made for all years, but the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company's tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs. The Company's foreign domiciled subsidiaries are subject to foreign income taxes on earnings in their respective jurisdictions. The Company elected to have its foreign subsidiaries, except for its subsidiaries in Brazil, Canada, China, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, and Spain, consolidated in the Company's U.S. federal income tax return. The Company is generally eligible to receive tax credits on its U.S. federal income tax return for most of the foreign taxes paid by the Company's subsidiaries included in the U.S. federal income tax return. For financial statement purposes, the Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Once this threshold has been met, the Company's measurement of its expected tax benefits is recognized in its financial statements. Gross unrecognized tax benefits are included in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, and interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of operations. Recently Issued Accounting Standards On July 22, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard that requires entities to measure most inventory "at the lower of cost and net realizable value," thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new standard will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or the retail inventory method. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires an entity to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license. If the arrangement contains a software license, the entity would account for the fees related to the software license element in a manner consistent with how the acquisition of other software licenses is accounted for. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, the customer would account for the arrangement as a service contract. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard on simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this new standard. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Other recently issued accounting standards are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

None of the interests are subject to capitalization for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Revolving Credit Facility - Wilmington Trust On August 17, 2015, Capital One assigned its rights and obligations as a lender to a syndicate of lenders that included certain of the Company's existing creditors, including funds associated with Standard General L.P., Monarch Alternative Capital L.P., Coliseum Capital LLC and Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P., and was replaced by Wilmington Trust, National Association ("Wilmington Trust") as administrative agent. Additionally, on August 17, 2015, the Capital One Credit Facility was amended pursuant to an amended and restated credit agreement among the Company, the new syndicate of lenders and Wilmington Trust (the "Wilmington Trust Credit Facility"). In connection with such amendment, the syndicate of lenders received certain amendment and closing fees and reimbursement of closing expenses. The Wilmington Trust Credit Facility provides for a $90,000 asset-based revolving credit facility and matures on April, 4, 2018, subject to a January 15, 2018 maturity in limited circumstances. Borrowings under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility are subject to specified borrowing base requirements which is increased by $15,000 , but such $15,000 increase cannot increase the borrowing base above $60,000 . Amounts repaid under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility cannot be re-borrowed. Borrowings currently outstanding under the Capital One Credit Facility will continue under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility and bear interest at a LIBOR based rate plus 5.0% or a rate based on the prime rate plus 4.0% . New borrowings under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility bear interest at a LIBOR based rate plus 7.0% or a rate based on the prime rate plus 6.0% , and was subject to specified borrowing requirements and covenants. The Wilmington Trust Credit Facility is secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company's and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to some restrictions. Among other provisions, the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility requires that the Company maintain a lockbox arrangement and contains certain subjective acceleration clauses. In addition, the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility may at its discretion, adjust the advance restrictions and criteria for eligible inventory and accounts receivable. The Wilmington Trust Credit Facility contains cross-default provisions whereby an event of default under the indenture governing the Notes or other indebtedness, in each case of an amount greater than a specified threshold, would cause an event of default under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility, the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility may, among other things, terminate the obligations of the lenders to make loans, and the obligation of the letter of credit issuer to make letter of credit extensions, and require the Company to repay all outstanding amounts. On August 17, 2015, the Company also entered into amendments to the indenture agreement governing the Notes and the Standard General Loan Agreement to permit the Company to enter into the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. See Note 7. Revolving Credit Facility - Capital One As of June 30, 2015, the Company was party to a credit agreement, maturing on April 4, 2018, with Capital One, and other lenders party thereto, that provided the Company with a $50,000 asset-backed revolving credit facility.

(b) Net of unamortized discount of $770 and $816 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Senior Secured Notes due 2020 The Company has outstanding Notes issued at 97% of the $206,000 par value on April 4, 2013 . The Notes mature on April 15, 2020 and bear interest at 15% per annum, of which 2% is payable in-kind until April 14, 2018 and in cash on subsequent interest dates. On April 14, 2015 , the Company paid $13,803 in interest on the Notes. The scheduled interest payment on the Notes due on October 15, 2015 is approximately $13,900 . On or after April 15, 2017, the Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the Notes at a premium, decreasing ratably over time to zero as specified in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. Prior to April 15, 2017, the Company may, at its option, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 113% of the aggregate principal amount of the redeemed notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to April 15, 2017, the Company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the Notes by paying a "make whole" premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, the holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion of the Notes at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of purchase. In addition, the Company is required to use the net proceeds of certain asset sales, if not used for specified purposes, to purchase some of the Notes at 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of purchase. On each interest payment date after April 4, 2018, the Company will be required to redeem, for cash, a portion of each Note then outstanding equal to the amount necessary to prevent such Note from being treated as an "applicable high yield discount obligation" within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code. The redemption price will be 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the date of redemption. The Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by the Company's existing and future domestic subsidiaries. The Notes and the related guarantees are secured by a first-priority lien on the Company's and its domestic subsidiaries' assets (other than the Credit Facility Priority Collateral, as defined below, subject to some exceptions and permitted liens). The Notes and the related guarantees also are secured by a second-priority lien on all of Company's and its domestic subsidiaries' cash, trade accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets (collectively, the "Credit Facility Priority Collateral"), subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens. The Notes and the guarantees, respectively, rank equal in right of payment with the Company's and its domestic subsidiaries' senior indebtedness, including indebtedness under the Capital One Credit Facility, before giving effect to collateral arrangements. The Notes impose certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries to, among other things, and subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions, incur additional indebtedness or issue disqualified capital stock or preferred stock (with respect to restricted subsidiaries), grant liens, make payments in respect of their capital stock or certain indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates, create dividend or other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries, merge or consolidate with any other person, sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets or adopt a plan of liquidation. The Company must annually report to the trustee on compliance with such limitations. The Notes also contain cross-default provisions whereby a payment default or acceleration of any indebtedness in an aggregate amount greater than a specified threshold would cause an event of default with respect to the Notes. On August 17, 2015, the Company also entered into an amendment to the indenture agreement governing the Notes to permit the Company to enter into the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. See Note 6. As of June 30, 2015 , the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Indenture. Standard General Loan Agreement On July 16, 2014, Lion Capital LLP ("Lion") assigned its rights and obligations as a lender to an entity affiliated with Standard General (the "Standard General Loan Agreement"). On September 8, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment of the Standard General Loan Agreement to lower the applicable interest rate to 17% , extend the maturity to April 15, 2021 , and make certain other technical amendments. The principal amount of the term loan is $9,865 . Interest under the loan agreement is payable quarterly in cash or, to the extent permitted by the Company's other debt agreements, in-kind. The Standard General Loan Agreement contains cross-default provisions whereby a payment default or acceleration of any indebtedness in an aggregate amount greater than a specified threshold would cause an event of default. On August 17, 2015, in connection with the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the Standard General Loan Agreement ("the Third Amendment") which amends certain provision of the Standard General Loan Agreement to permit the transaction contemplated by the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility and provides for the payment of consent fees and certain releases and equity registration rights in favor of Standard General. Standard General Credit Agreement On March 25, 2015, as contemplated by the Standstill Agreement, one of the Company's subsidiaries borrowed $15,000 under an unsecured credit agreement with Standard General (the "Standard General Credit Agreement"). The Standard General Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the Company, bears interest at 14% per annum, and will mature on October 15, 2020 . Interest under the credit agreement is payable quarterly in cash or, to the extent permitted by the Company's other debt agreements, in-kind. The Standard General Credit Agreement contains customary defaults, including cross events of default with respect to defaults under the Notes and the Standard General Loan Agreement and cross acceleration to other indebtedness above a threshold amount. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, the Company is required to offer to prepay the Standard General Credit Agreement at 101% of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on the date of the prepayment. The Company will be required to prepay loans under the Standard General Credit Agreement to the extent necessary to avoid the loan being characterized as an "applicable high yield discount obligation" within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code by June 30, 2020.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	Income Taxes Income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were computed using an effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management. The Company incurred losses from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . Based upon these results and the recent history of cumulative losses for the prior three years, as well as trends in the Company's performance projected through 2015, the Company's management believes that it is more likely than not deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions are not fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company will not record any income tax benefits in the condensed consolidated financial statements until it is determined that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in the respective jurisdictions to realize the deferred income tax assets. As a result of the analysis, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions, primarily in the U.S., and partial valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions, is required. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Tax years that remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service are 2012 through 2014 . The Company's state and foreign tax returns are open to audit for the calendar years 2010 through 2014 .

Lease Agreement between the Company and a Related Party The Company has an operating lease expiring in November 2016 for its knitting facility with American Central Plaza LLC, which is partially owned by Mr. Charney and Marty Bailey, the Company's Chief Manufacturing Officer. Mr. Charney holds an 18.75% ownership interest in American Central Plaza LLC while Mr. Bailey holds a 6.25% interest. The remaining members of American Central Plaza LLC are not affiliated with the Company. Rent expenses (including property taxes and insurance payments) related to this lease were $156 and $207 for three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $311 for both the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Agreements between Mr. Charney and Standard General As of June 30, 2015 , Mr. Charney owned 40.9% of the Company's outstanding common stock, and Mr. Charney and Standard General collectively controlled the right to vote such common stock as described below. On June 25, 2014, Mr. Charney entered into a letter agreement with Standard General in which, if Standard General was able to acquire at least 10% of the Company's outstanding shares, Standard General would loan Mr. Charney the funds needed for him to purchase those acquired shares from Standard General (the "SG-Charney Loan"). Between June 26, 2014 and June 27, 2014, Standard General acquired 27,351 of the Company's outstanding shares, and Mr. Charney purchased those shares at a price of $0.715 per share using the proceeds from the SG-Charney Loan. According to Mr. Charney's Schedule 13D/A, dated June 25, 2014, the loan bears interest at 10% per annum, payable in-kind and matures on July 15, 2019, with no prepayment penalty. The loan is collateralized by the newly acquired shares as well as by Mr. Charney's original shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. According to Mr. Charney's Schedule 13D/A, dated June 25, 2014, on July 9, 2014, Mr. Charney and Standard General, on behalf of one or more of its funds, entered into a cooperation agreement, which provides, among other things, that neither Mr. Charney nor Standard General will vote the common stock owned by Mr. Charney except in a manner approved by the parties in writing, except that, notwithstanding the terms of the Standstill Agreement, Mr. Charney may vote certain of his shares in favor of his own election to the Board and may vote all of such shares pursuant to the Investment Voting Agreement, dated March 13, 2009. In the Standstill Agreement, however, Mr. Charney agreed not to serve as a director, officer, or employee of the Company. In addition, Mr. Charney agreed to enter into warrant agreements with Standard General that would give Standard General the right exercisable, on or prior to July 15, 2017, to purchase from Mr. Charney 32,072 shares (consisting of the 27,351 shares purchased by using the proceeds from the SG-Charney Loan and 10% of Mr. Charney's 47,209 original shares).

Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure [Text Block]	Stockholders' Deficit Rights Plan On December 21, 2014, the Board adopted a stockholders rights plan, as amended (the "Rights Plan"). Under the Rights Plan, the Company declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each share of its common stock held by shareholders of record as of January 2, 2015. Each right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one ten-thousandth of a share (a "Unit") of Series B Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at a purchase price of $3.25 per Unit, subject to adjustment. At-The-Market Offering On May 11, 2015, the Company commenced a $10,000 "at-the-market" offering program. Under the program, the Company may, from time to time and at its discretion, offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $10,000 (but in no event more than 15,000 shares). The Company has used the net proceeds generated through the program for working capital and general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2015 , the Company had issued 4,121 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of $1,998 . Sales of common stock under the "at-the-market" offering program are at the Company's sole discretion and subject to the terms and conditions of the sales agreement related thereto, and there are no assurances that such sales will continue in the future. Common Stock Warrants Lion-held warrants (the "Lion Warrants") contain certain anti-dilution protections in favor of Lion providing for proportional adjustment of the warrant price and, under certain circumstances, the number of shares of the Company's common stock issuable upon exercise of the Lion Warrants, in connection with, among other things, stock dividends, subdivisions and combinations and the issuance of additional equity securities at less than fair market value, as well as providing for the issuance of additional warrants to Lion in the event of certain equity sales or debt for equity exchanges. As a result of the at-the-market offering program, Lion received the right to purchase an additional 12 shares of the Company's common stock with an adjusted exercise price of all of the Lion Warrants at $0.66 . Such adjustments were required by the terms of the existing Lion warrants. As of June 30, 2015 , the fair value of the 24,523 Lion Warrants, estimated using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model, was $7,318 and was recorded as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheets. The calculation assumed a stock price of $0.49 , exercise price of $0.66 , volatility of 71.31% , annual risk free interest rate of 2.07% , a contractual remaining term of 6.7 years and no dividends. These warrants will expire on February 18, 2022 . The following table presents a summary of common stock warrants activity as of June 30, 2015 : Shares (in thousands) Weighted-Average Exercise Price Weighted-Average Contractual Life (in years) Outstanding - January 1, 2015 24,511 $ 0.66 7.2 Issued (a) 24,523 $ 0.66 6.7 Forfeited (a) (24,511 ) $ 0.66 Expired 0 Outstanding - June 30, 2015 24,523 $ 0.66 6.7 Fair value - June 30, 2015 $ 7,318 ______________________ (a) Issued and forfeited warrants represent repriced shares. Earnings Per Share The Company presents earnings per share ("EPS") utilizing a dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and reflects net loss divided by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for the period presented. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The Company had common stock under various options, warrants and other agreements at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . The effects of approximately 33,403 and 40,018 shares at June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 because their impact would have been anti-dilutive. A summary of the potential stock issuances under various options, warrants and other agreements that could have a dilutive effect on the shares outstanding are as follows: June 30, 2015 2014 Lion warrants 24,523 24,511 Shares issuable to Mr. Charney based on market conditions (a) 6,806 13,611 Employee options and restricted shares 2,074 1,896 33,403 40,018 ______________________ (a) Charney Anti-Dilution Rights pursuant to the April 26, 2011 Investor Purchase Agreement, of which each 6,805 expired unexercised on April 15, 2015 and 2014 (Note 12).

The purpose of the 2011 Plan is to provide an incentive to selected employees, directors, independent contractors, and consultants of the Company or its affiliates, and provides that the Company may grant options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and other stock-based and cash-based awards. As of June 30, 2015 , there were 9,949 shares available for future grants under the 2011 Plan. The Company had identified a clerical discrepancy in its records pertaining to the total historic number of shares issued in connection with grants of common stock to employees under its stock incentive plans, which resulted in an immaterial adjustment to issued and outstanding shares as of June 30, 2015.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases The Company conducts retail operations under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2034. The Company's primary manufacturing facilities and executive offices are currently under a long-term lease that expires on July 31, 2019 . The rent expenses (including real estate taxes and common area maintenance costs) were $16,835 and $18,328 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $33,730 and $37,340 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company did not incur any significant contingent rent during these periods. Rent expense is allocated to cost of sales for production-related activities, selling expenses for retail stores, and the remainder to general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Real Estate Matter On July 27, 2015, the Company entered into a second amendment to the lease agreement for its headquarters and manufacturing facility in Los Angeles, California, resolving certain alleged breaches under the lease agreement with the landlord. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company will vacate one of the leased buildings (an under-utilized building not occupied by any manufacturing or distribution operations) by April 1, 2016, which, assuming timely payments, would result in a fifty percent, or $2,100 , reduction in annual base rent starting on April 1, 2016. Additionally, the amendment reduces certain rent, fees, interest and reimbursements incurred primarily from the first half of 2014 from $2,995 to $1,800 , which will be paid in eleven monthly installments from April 1, 2016 through February 1, 2017. Advertising The Company had approximately $745 in open advertising commitments at June 30, 2015 , which were primarily allocated among print advertisements in newspapers, magazines and outdoor advertising. The majority of these commitments are expected to be paid during the remainder of 2015 .

Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves [Abstract]
Liability for Future Policy Benefits and Unpaid Claims Disclosure [Text Block]	Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves The Company uses a combination of third-party insurance and self-insurance for a number of risks including workers' compensation, medical benefits provided to employees, and general liability claims. General liability primarily relates to litigation that arises from store operations. Estimating liability is a difficult process as many factors can ultimately affect the final settlement of a claim and, therefore, the reserve required. Changes in future inflation rates, litigation trends, legal interpretations, benefit levels, and settlement patterns, among other factors, can impact ultimate claim costs. The Company estimates liability by utilizing loss development factors based on its specific data to project the future development of incurred losses. Loss estimates are adjusted based upon actual claim settlements and reported claims. Although the Company does not expect ultimate claim costs to significantly differ from its estimates, self-insurance reserves could be affected if actual developed claims fluctuate considerably from the historical trends and the assumptions applied. The Company's estimated claims are discounted using a rate of 1.55% with a duration that approximates the duration of its self-insurance reserve portfolio. The undiscounted liabilities were $21,811 and $20,409 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The workers' compensation liability is based on an estimate of losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. To guarantee performance under the workers' compensation program, the Company issued standby letters of credit of $300 in favor of insurance companies' beneficiaries as of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , and cash deposits of $19,499 and $16,124 in favor of insurance company beneficiaries as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. At June 30, 2015 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $20,893 , of which $5,734 is included in accrued expenses and $15,159 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2014 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $19,560 , of which $5,321 is included in accrued expenses and $14,239 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company self-insures its health insurance benefit obligations while the claims are administered through a third party administrator. The medical benefit liability is based on estimated losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. The Company's total reserve of $1,614 and $1,439 was included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

Litigation

Litigation	6 Months Ended

Litigation Settlement [Abstract]
Legal Matters and Contingencies [Text Block]	Litigation The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies in the ordinary course of business that arise from litigation, business transactions, operations, employee-related matters, or taxes. The Company establishes reserves when it believes a loss is probable and is able to estimate its potential exposure. For loss contingencies believed to be reasonably possible, the Company also discloses the nature of the loss contingency and an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Insurance may cover a portion of such losses; however, certain matters could arise for which we do not have insurance coverage or for which insurance provides only partial coverage. These matters could have a material negative effect on the Company's business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In all cases, the Company vigorously defends itself unless a reasonable settlement appears appropriate. SEC Investigation On February 5, 2015, the Company learned that the Securities and Exchange Commission had issued a formal order of investigation to determine whether, during Mr. Charney's tenure as CEO of the Company, there were any violations of federal securities laws. The SEC's investigation is a non-public, fact-finding inquiry to determine whether any violations of law have occurred. The Company intends to cooperate fully with the SEC in its investigation. Shareholder Litigation In 2010, two shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California (the "Court") that were subsequently consolidated for all purposes into a case entitled In re American Apparel, Inc. Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. CV106576 (the "First Derivative Action"). Plaintiffs in the First Derivative Action alleged a cause of action for breach of fiduciary duty arising out of (i) the Company's alleged failure to maintain adequate accounting and internal control policies and procedures; (ii) the Company's alleged violation of state and federal immigration laws in connection with the previously disclosed termination of employees following an Immigration and Customs Enforcement inspection; and (iii) the Company's alleged failure to implement controls sufficient to prevent a sexually hostile and discriminatory work environment. The Company does not maintain any direct exposure to loss in connection with these shareholder derivative lawsuits. The Company's status as a "Nominal Defendant" in the actions reflects that the lawsuits are purportedly maintained by the named plaintiffs on behalf of American Apparel and that plaintiffs seek damages on the Company's behalf. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the First Derivative Action which was granted with leave to amend on July 31, 2012. Plaintiffs did not amend the complaint and subsequently filed a motion to dismiss each of their claims, with prejudice, for the stated purpose of taking an immediate appeal of the Court's July 31, 2012 order. On October 16, 2012, the Court granted the plaintiffs' motion to dismiss and entered judgment accordingly. On November 12, 2012, plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals where the case is currently pending. In 2010, four shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles (the "Superior Court") which were subsequently consolidated for all purposes into a case entitled In re American Apparel, Inc. Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. BC 443763 (the "State Derivative Action"). Three of the matters comprising the State Derivative Action alleged causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty arising out of (i) the Company's alleged failure to maintain adequate accounting and internal control policies and procedures; and (ii) the Company's alleged violation of state and federal immigration laws in connection with the previously disclosed termination of employees following an Immigration and Customs Enforcement inspection. The fourth matter alleges seven causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets also arising out of the same allegations. On April 12, 2011, the Superior Court issued an order granting a stay (which currently remains in place) of the State Derivative Action on the grounds that, among other reasons, the case is duplicative of the First Derivative Action. In July 2014, two shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the Court that were subsequently consolidated for all purposes into a case entitled In re American Apparel, Inc. 2014 Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. CV1405230 (the "Second Derivative Action," and together with the First Derivative Action, the "Federal Derivative Actions"). Plaintiffs in the Second Derivative Action alleged similar causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty by failing to (i) maintain adequate internal control and exercise proper oversight over Mr. Charney, whose alleged misconduct and mismanagement has purportedly harmed the Company's operations and financial condition, (ii) ensure Mr. Charney's suspension as CEO did not trigger material defaults under two of the Company's credit agreements, and (iii) prevent Mr. Charney from increasing his ownership percentage of the Company. The Second Derivative Action primarily seeks to recover damages and reform corporate governance and internal procedures. The Company does not maintain any direct exposure to loss in connection with these shareholder derivative lawsuits. The Company's status as a "Nominal Defendant" in the actions reflects that the lawsuits are purportedly maintained by the named plaintiffs on behalf of American Apparel and that plaintiffs seek damages on the Company's behalf. On April 28, 2015, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss, with leave to amend. On July 17, 2015, the Court dismissed the action, without prejudice, for failure to prosecute and to comply with court rules and orders. Both the Federal Derivative Actions and State Derivative Action are covered under the Company's Directors and Officers Liability insurance policy, subject to a deductible and a reservation of rights. Should the above matters (i.e., the Federal Derivative Actions or the State Derivative Action) ultimately be decided against the Company in an amount that exceeds the Company's insurance coverage, or if liability is imposed on grounds that fall outside the scope of the Company's Directors and Officers Liability insurance coverage, the Company could not only incur a substantial liability, but also experience an increase in similar suits and suffer reputational harm. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of these matters at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matters proceed through their course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that these matters, either individually or together with the potential for similar suits and reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On April 21, 2015, former employee and purported shareholder Jan Willem Hubner and purported shareholder Eric Ribner filed suit against Company directors and the Company in the Court (Case No. 15-2965). This matter was filed as a related case with respect to In re American Apparel, Inc. 2014 Derivative Shareholder Litigation. The lawsuit alleges the following counts: (1) violation of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder; (2) violation of Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act; (3) breach of the duty of disclosure/candor; and (4) aiding and abetting breaches of the duty of disclosure/candor. Both of plaintiffs’ claims are premised on the ground that American Apparel’s April 28, 2014, Proxy Statement (Schedule 14-A) issued in advance of the Company’s 2014 Annual Meeting contained misrepresentations and omissions. On May 1, 2015, plaintiffs filed a motion for preliminary injunction seeking relief substantially similar to that sought by the complaint itself (the "Motion"). On June 8, 2015, the Court denied the Motion. On June 18, 2015, plaintiffs stipulated to dismissal of this action, with prejudice. On June 26, 2015, plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims on appeal. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On April 30, 2015, former employee and purported shareholder Eliana Gil Rodriguez filed a putative class action lawsuit against Company directors, a former Company officer, and Standard General L.P. in the Delaware Chancery Court (Case No. 10944). The lawsuit alleges breach of fiduciary duty claims in connection with the Company's 2014 annual meeting, its secondary offering, the Standstill Agreement, the 2014 adoption of a rights plan, and certain amendments to the bylaws against the former and current Company directors and the named former Company officer. In addition, the lawsuit alleges that Standard General aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. Plaintiff seeks declaratory relief and requests that the Court order a revote of the Class A directors. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Employment Matters On April 16, 2015, former employees Carlos Hirschberg, Cesar Antonio Palma Cordero, and Dominga Valencia filed a putative class action lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California (Case No. 2:15-CV-02827), asserting: (i) violation of the WARN Act (29 U.S.C. § 2101 et seq. ); (ii) violation of the California WARN Act (Labor Code §1400 et seq. ), and (iii) unfair business practices under California Business and Professions Code §17200 et seq. ). The judge in this matter has since dismissed Mr. Hirschberg as a plaintiff. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On April 20, 2015, former employee David Nisenbaum filed a lawsuit against the Company in Los Angeles Superior Court (Case No. BC579342) asserting: (1) religious discrimination in violation of the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA); (2) failure to prevent discrimination in violation of FEHA; (3) retaliation in violation of FEHA; (4) wrongful termination in violation of public policy; (5) violation of Labor Code § 1102.5; (6) violation of Labor Code § 1198.5; (7) intentional infliction of emotional distress; and (8) violation of California Business & Professions Code §§ 17200 et seq. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On or about June 23, 2014, Mr. Charney submitted a demand in arbitration against the Company in connection with his suspension, which had been stayed pending the determination of the Suitability Committee in the Internal Investigation. As a result of Mr. Charney's termination for cause, such stay is no longer in effect. On March 26, 2015, Mr. Charney submitted correspondence to the arbitration body requesting a reinstatement of his demand for arbitration. Mr. Charney has indicated that he intends to seek damages of up to $35 million in connection with claims allegedly arising from his termination for cause. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On May 12, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company and a Company director in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles, asserting: (1) defamation; and (2) false light. Mr. Charney alleges that he was defamed and painted in a false light in an April 2015 letter written by the Company director and disseminated to American Apparel employees that states that Mr. Charney was terminated for cause and agreed that he would not return to the Company if he was found not to be suitable pursuant to an independent investigation conducted by the Board. Mr. Charney seeks damages in excess of $20 million . The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On June 4, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company in Delaware Chancery Court (Case No. 11098-CB) asserting counts for: (1) advancement; and (2) fees on fees. Mr. Charney seeks indemnification for fees and expenses incurred in the lawsuit captioned American Apparel, Inc. v. Dov Charney, Case No. 11033-CB, also filed in Delaware Chancery Court, alleging counts for: (1) breach of contract; and (2) breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing (the "Breach of Contract Action"). The Breach of Contract Action alleges that Mr. Charney violated a Nomination, Standstill and Support Agreement entered into on July 9, 2014, by, among other things, seeking the removal of members of the Board elected at the Company's 2014 annual meeting or by instigating, encouraging, joining, acting in concert with and assisting third parties seeking such removal, and by disparaging the Company by making negative comments about the Company at employee meetings and to the media. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On June 19, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company and a Company director in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles (Case No. BC585664), asserting: (1) defamation; (2) false light; (3) intentional interference with actual economic relations; (4) intentional interference with prospective economic relations; and (5) violation of Business & Professions Code §§ 17200 et seq. Mr. Charney alleges that he was defamed by the Company director who Mr. Charney alleges told a large shareholder that he was being investigated for matters "criminal" in nature. Mr. Charney seeks damages in excess of $30 million . The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On June 24, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company, Standard General, L.P. (and certain of its funds), Company directors and a former Company officer in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles (Case No. BC586119), asserting: (1) violation of California Corporations Code § 25401; (2) intentional misrepresentation; (3) negligent misrepresentation; (4) breach of fiduciary duty; (5) fraud in the inducement/rescission; (6) conspiracy; (7) intentional infliction of emotional distress; (8) negligent infliction of emotional distress; and (9) declaratory relief. Mr. Charney alleges that certain Company officers and directors engaged in fraud and conspiracy to induce Mr. Charney to dilute his equity in the Company such that defendant parties could control the Company. Mr. Charney seeks damages in excess of $100 million . The Company believes that Mr. Charney's claims in his June 4, 2015 lawsuit are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. In the first quarter of 2015, several unfair labor practices charges were filed against the Company with the National Labor Relations Board alleging violations of the National Labor Relations Act. The majority of the unfair labor practice charges that were filed have since been dismissed, but several remain. The Company believes that all such charges are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these charges. While the charges will not result in direct financial liability, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of the charges at this time. Any views formed as to the viability of these charges or the financial liability, if any, which could result may change from time to time as the matters proceed through their course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that these charges together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. In addition, the Company is currently engaged in other employment-related claims incidental to its business. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit or not material and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. While the final resolution of such claims cannot be determined based on information at this time, the Company believes, but cannot provide assurance that, the amount and ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions will not materially affect its business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Should any of these matters be decided against the Company, it could not only incur liability but also experience an increase in similar suits and suffer reputational harm. OSHA Matters In the first quarter of 2015, an industrial accident at the Company's dyeing facility in Hawthorne, California resulted in injuries to one of our employees. California OSHA completed an investigation and assessed penalties in a non-material amount. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome, if any, of any potentially remaining legal issues pertaining to this matter at this time. No assurance can be made that this matter, together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Other Matters On April 2, 2015, a purported customer of the Company filed a putative class action, (in San Diego Superior Court (Case No. 37-2015-00011243), for violations of California Civil Code § 1747.08 relating to the Company’s alleged practices for collecting e-mail addresses in connection with credit card transactions at its retail stores. The Company intends to aggressively defend against this matter. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Legal Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block]	The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies in the ordinary course of business that arise from litigation, business transactions, operations, employee-related matters, or taxes. The Company establishes reserves when it believes a loss is probable and is able to estimate its potential exposure. For loss contingencies believed to be reasonably possible, the Company also discloses the nature of the loss contingency and an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Insurance may cover a portion of such losses; however, certain matters could arise for which we do not have insurance coverage or for which insurance provides only partial coverage. These matters could have a material negative effect on the Company's business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In all cases, the Company vigorously defends itself unless a reasonable settlement appears appropriate.
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Apparel, Inc. and its 100% owned subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The financial data of the Company included herein is unaudited. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain certain information that was included in the annual financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 . Readers are urged to review the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as well as other publicly filed documents for more complete descriptions and discussions. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, the results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The operating results and cash flows of the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates include: revenue recognition, inventory valuation and obsolescence; valuation and recoverability of long-lived assets, including the values assigned to goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment; fair value calculations, including derivative liabilities; contingencies, including accruals for the outcome of current litigation and assessments and self-insurance; and income taxes, including uncertain income tax positions and recoverability of deferred income taxes and any limitations as to net operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash (the amounts of which may, at times, exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits on insurable amounts) and trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables) relating substantially to the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment. Cash is managed within established guidelines, and the Company mitigates its risk by investing through major financial institutions. The Company had $5,429 and $6,361 held in foreign banks at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited by performing on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusting credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness. The Company also maintains an insurance policy for certain customers based on a customer's credit rating and established limits. Collections and payments from customers are continuously monitored. Two customers in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 41.4% of its total trade accounts receivable as of June 30, 2015 . One customer in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 16.6% of its total trade accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014 . The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which is based upon historical experience and specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While bad debt expenses have historically been within expectations and allowances established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that it has in the past. Fair Value Measurements The financial instruments recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets include cash, trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables), accounts payable, revolving credit facilities, senior secured notes, term loans and warrants. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying values of cash, trade accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate their fair market values. In addition, the carrying amount of the revolving credit facility from Capital One approximates its fair value because of the variable market interest rate charged to the Company. The Company employs a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date using the exit price. Accordingly, when market observable data is not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are used to reflect those that market participants would be presumed to use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on the level of judgment associated with inputs used to measure their fair value and the level of market price observability, as follows: Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than unadjusted quoted prices in active markets, which are based on the following: • Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; • Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets; or • Either directly or indirectly observable inputs as of the reporting date. Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The valuation policies and procedures underlying are determined by the Company's accounting and finance team and are approved by the Chief Financial Officer. In certain cases, inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Thus, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Level 1 or Level 2) and unobservable (Level 3). The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruption, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition could cause an instrument to be reclassified from Level 1 to Level 2, or from Level 2 to Level 3. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at either the actual date of the event or a change in circumstances that caused the transfer. As of June 30, 2015 , there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Summary of Significant Valuation Techniques Level 2 Measurements: Senior secured notes : Estimated based on quoted prices for identical senior secured notes in non-active market. Level 3 Measurements: Term loans : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including principal and interest payments and discount rate. A yield rate was estimated using yields rates for publicly traded debt instruments of comparable companies with similar features. An increase or decrease in the stock price and the discount rate assumption can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of team loans. See Note 8. Warrants : Estimated using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model. Significant observable and unobservable inputs include stock price, exercise price, annual risk free rate, term, and expected volatility. An increase or decrease in these inputs could significantly increase or decrease the fair value of the warrant. See Notes 8 and 11. Indefinite-lived assets - goodwill : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit, discount rate, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, depreciation and terminal value assumptions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or the terminal value assumption, in isolation, can have a significant effect on the fair value of the reporting unit. Retail stores : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit and discount rate. The key assumptions used in the estimates of projected cash flows were sales, gross margins, and payroll costs. These forecasts were based on historical trends and take into account recent developments as well as the Company's plans and intentions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or projected cash flows, in isolation, can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of the assets, which would have an effect on the impairment recorded. Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting basis and the respective tax basis of its assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined that such amounts will more likely than not go unrealized. Significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. The determination to record a valuation allowance is based on the recent history of cumulative losses and current operating performance and includes an assessment of the degree to which any losses are driven by items that are unusual in nature or incurred to improve future profitability. In addition, the Company reviews changes in near-term market conditions and any other factors arising during the period which may impact its future operating results. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be realized, any related valuation allowance of such assets would be reversed. Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. Management believes that adequate provisions have been made for all years, but the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company's tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs. The Company's foreign domiciled subsidiaries are subject to foreign income taxes on earnings in their respective jurisdictions. The Company elected to have its foreign subsidiaries, except for its subsidiaries in Brazil, Canada, China, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, and Spain, consolidated in the Company's U.S. federal income tax return. The Company is generally eligible to receive tax credits on its U.S. federal income tax return for most of the foreign taxes paid by the Company's subsidiaries included in the U.S. federal income tax return. For financial statement purposes, the Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Once this threshold has been met, the Company's measurement of its expected tax benefits is recognized in its financial statements. Gross unrecognized tax benefits are included in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, and interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of operations. Recently Issued Accounting Standards On July 22, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard that requires entities to measure most inventory "at the lower of cost and net realizable value," thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new standard will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or the retail inventory method. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires an entity to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license. If the arrangement contains a software license, the entity would account for the fees related to the software license element in a manner consistent with how the acquisition of other software licenses is accounted for. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, the customer would account for the arrangement as a service contract. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard on simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this new standard. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Other recently issued accounting standards are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company's financial instruments at fair value are measured on a recurring basis. Related unrealized gains or losses are recognized in unrealized (gain) loss on change in fair value of warrants in the consolidated statements of operations. For additional disclosures regarding methods and assumptions used in estimating fair values of these financial instruments, see Note 2. The following tables present carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value. The Company did not have any assets or liabilities categorized as Level 1 as of June 30, 2015 .
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Earnings Per Share The Company presents earnings per share ("EPS") utilizing a dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and reflects net loss divided by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for the period presented. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The Company had common stock under various options, warrants and other agreements at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . The effects of approximately 33,403 and 40,018 shares at June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 because their impact would have been anti-dilutive.
Lease, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Operating Leases The Company conducts retail operations under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2034. The Company's primary manufacturing facilities and executive offices are currently under a long-term lease that expires on July 31, 2019 . The rent expenses (including real estate taxes and common area maintenance costs) were $16,835 and $18,328 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $33,730 and $37,340 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company did not incur any significant contingent rent during these periods. Rent expense is allocated to cost of sales for production-related activities, selling expenses for retail stores, and the remainder to general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Business Segment and Geographic Area Information The Company reports the following four operating segments based on the management approach: U.S. Wholesale, U.S. Retail, Canada, and International. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company's reportable segments.
Contingent Liability Reserve Estimate, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves The Company uses a combination of third-party insurance and self-insurance for a number of risks including workers' compensation, medical benefits provided to employees, and general liability claims. General liability primarily relates to litigation that arises from store operations. Estimating liability is a difficult process as many factors can ultimately affect the final settlement of a claim and, therefore, the reserve required. Changes in future inflation rates, litigation trends, legal interpretations, benefit levels, and settlement patterns, among other factors, can impact ultimate claim costs. The Company estimates liability by utilizing loss development factors based on its specific data to project the future development of incurred losses. Loss estimates are adjusted based upon actual claim settlements and reported claims. Although the Company does not expect ultimate claim costs to significantly differ from its estimates, self-insurance reserves could be affected if actual developed claims fluctuate considerably from the historical trends and the assumptions applied. The Company's estimated claims are discounted using a rate of 1.55% with a duration that approximates the duration of its self-insurance reserve portfolio. The undiscounted liabilities were $21,811 and $20,409 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The workers' compensation liability is based on an estimate of losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. To guarantee performance under the workers' compensation program, the Company issued standby letters of credit of $300 in favor of insurance companies' beneficiaries as of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , and cash deposits of $19,499 and $16,124 in favor of insurance company beneficiaries as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. At June 30, 2015 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $20,893 , of which $5,734 is included in accrued expenses and $15,159 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2014 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $19,560 , of which $5,321 is included in accrued expenses and $14,239 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company self-insures its health insurance benefit obligations while the claims are administered through a third party administrator. The medical benefit liability is based on estimated losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. The Company's total reserve of $1,614 and $1,439 was included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]	The Company identifies potentially excess and slow-moving inventories by evaluating turn rates, inventory levels and other factors and records lower of cost or market reserves for such identified excess and slow-moving inventories. The Company also establishes reserves for inventory shrinkage for each of its retail locations and warehouse based on the historical results of physical inventory cycle counts. The Company had a lower of cost or market reserves for excess and slow-moving inventories of $7,112 and $6,684 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. As part of its valuation analysis of inventory, the Company identified certain slow-moving, second quality finished goods and raw materials inventory for additional reserves in the fourth quarter of 2014. Inventory shrinkage reserves were $1,790 and $2,094 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates include: revenue recognition, inventory valuation and obsolescence; valuation and recoverability of long-lived assets, including the values assigned to goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment; fair value calculations, including derivative liabilities; contingencies, including accruals for the outcome of current litigation and assessments and self-insurance; and income taxes, including uncertain income tax positions and recoverability of deferred income taxes and any limitations as to net operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting basis and the respective tax basis of its assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined that such amounts will more likely than not go unrealized. Significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. The determination to record a valuation allowance is based on the recent history of cumulative losses and current operating performance and includes an assessment of the degree to which any losses are driven by items that are unusual in nature or incurred to improve future profitability. In addition, the Company reviews changes in near-term market conditions and any other factors arising during the period which may impact its future operating results. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be realized, any related valuation allowance of such assets would be reversed. Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. Management believes that adequate provisions have been made for all years, but the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company's tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs. The Company's foreign domiciled subsidiaries are subject to foreign income taxes on earnings in their respective jurisdictions. The Company elected to have its foreign subsidiaries, except for its subsidiaries in Brazil, Canada, China, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, and Spain, consolidated in the Company's U.S. federal income tax return. The Company is generally eligible to receive tax credits on its U.S. federal income tax return for most of the foreign taxes paid by the Company's subsidiaries included in the U.S. federal income tax return. For financial statement purposes, the Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Once this threshold has been met, the Company's measurement of its expected tax benefits is recognized in its financial statements. Gross unrecognized tax benefits are included in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, and interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of operations. Income Taxes Income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were computed using an effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management. The Company incurred losses from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . Based upon these results and the recent history of cumulative losses for the prior three years, as well as trends in the Company's performance projected through 2015, the Company's management believes that it is more likely than not deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions are not fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company will not record any income tax benefits in the condensed consolidated financial statements until it is determined that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in the respective jurisdictions to realize the deferred income tax assets. As a result of the analysis, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions, primarily in the U.S., and partial valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions, is required.
New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block]	Recently Issued Accounting Standards On July 22, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard that requires entities to measure most inventory "at the lower of cost and net realizable value," thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new standard will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or the retail inventory method. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires an entity to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license. If the arrangement contains a software license, the entity would account for the fees related to the software license element in a manner consistent with how the acquisition of other software licenses is accounted for. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, the customer would account for the arrangement as a service contract. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard on simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this new standard. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Other recently issued accounting standards are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Schedule of Share-based Compensation, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units Activity [Table Text Block]	Share-Based Compensation The American Apparel, Inc. 2011 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "2011 Plan") authorizes the granting of a variety of incentive awards, the exercise or vesting of which would allow up to an aggregate of 17,500 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of such awards and authorizes up to 3,000 shares that may be awarded to any one participant during any calendar year. The purpose of the 2011 Plan is to provide an incentive to selected employees, directors, independent contractors, and consultants of the Company or its affiliates, and provides that the Company may grant options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and other stock-based and cash-based awards. As of June 30, 2015 , there were 9,949 shares available for future grants under the 2011 Plan. The Company had identified a clerical discrepancy in its records pertaining to the total historic number of shares issued in connection with grants of common stock to employees under its stock incentive plans, which resulted in an immaterial adjustment to issued and outstanding shares as of June 30, 2015.

These awards will vest, subject to each employee's continued service, over three years , with one-third of the total number of shares subject to each award vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and remain exercisable for ten years from the date of grant. The fair value of the stock option awards is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the grant date. The fair value of stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $375 . The calculation assumed a stock price of $0.71 , exercise price of $0.71 , volatility of 60.59% , annual risk free interest rate of 0.93% , expected option life of six years and no dividends. Share-Based Compensation Expense - The Company recorded share-based compensation expenses of $311 and $1,543 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $414 and $2,658 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to its share-based compensation awards that are expected to vest. No amounts have been capitalized.
