Luxury brands' sites don't work on the iPad

If I were Anna Wintour, I would be screaming at these companies to fix these sites. They reflect poorly on an industry that's all about effortless style, appearance, confidence, and never, ever having a hair out of place (unless that's the look you're going for). This? This is like they've got no pants on — and not in a good way. That goes double for restaurant sites.
