ZARA Sued: Dead Rat Sewn into a ZARA Dress

ZARA’s new 47,361-square-foot flagship store in Soho

A ZARA customer recently received an unpleasant and very smelly surprise—a dead rat was sewn into her ZARA dress!  Yes, you read that right a rodent, a rat.  Readers be careful when purchasing from ZARA–this story is not only disgusting, the poor ZARA customer received a horrible rash from a “rodent born disease.”   Website TMZ is reporting on this story.

According to TMZ  ” Cailey Fiesel says she snapped up the dress at Zara’s Greenwich, CT store in July, and when she finally wore it to work a few weeks later she noticed a “disturbingly pungent odor.” Later on that day, Cailey says she noticed a loose string rubbing against her leg, and when she reached down felt an unusual bulge in the dress. That’s when she realized the string was actually the leg of a dead rodent. Cailey says she developed a large rash that doctors diagnosed as a rodent born disease. She’s suing for unspecified damages.”

TMZ is exclusively reporting on this story.   This lawsuit is not the first recent complaint against ZARA.  They are also facing a lawsuit over their US pricing of overcharging their goods.

Can you imagine how bad conditions must be at the ZARA factories if a dead rat gets sewn into a garment?  I think this is going to give ZARA shoppers serious pause before they go buy holiday party dresses or do Christmas shopping at ZARA.
