Gap became popular in the late 90s due to these ads (and Sharon Stone). These commercials weren't bad. Back then it was like whenever you see an all white background you automatically knew it was going to be a Gap commercial. Blink 182 even mocked these commercials in What's My Age Again.

Now Gap can't come up with creative advertising like these. The Old Navy ones can't compare to these.

That is some good dancing in some ugly pants. Nothing was fitted in the '90s.
