While the Internet is a place for all things awesome, more often than not, one happens to come across certain things that make you excessively uncomfortable, and this incident is an example of that.
A Redditor, Cailey Fiesel recently bought two new dresses from Zara only to find that one of them had skeletal remains of a mouse sewn into the hem of the dress! By the looks of it, it appeared that the rat was hiding in the folds of the cloth when he was sewn into the dress.
As per the recent update, the lady has sued the Spanish retail chain. The case filed in the Manhattan Supreme Cout reads, While at work, she started to notice a disturbingly pungent odour and was unable to identify the source. Despite getting up from her desk and walking around, she was unable to escape this odour. As the day went on, Ms Fiesel started to notice what felt like a loose string from her dress rubbing against her leg without giving it much thought she reached down with her hand to try and locate the piece of string that was rubbing against her. To her utter shock and disbelief, as she ran her hand over the hem of the dress she felt an unusual bulge and suddenly realised that it was not a string that was rubbing against her leg but was instead a leg rubbing against her leg. The leg of a dead rodent that is.
CAN I JUST SAY EWWW!
The statement further reads,
Ms Fiesel jumped out of her chair in shock, people surrounded her desk to see what the commotion was while Ms Fiesel was paralysed with fear, she then ran to remove the dress. After removing the dress she found that a dead rodent was sewn into the hem of the dress. It’s disturbing. It clearly comes from a lack of oversight in terms of what they’re putting on their shelves. As a result of Zara’s negligence in manufacturing and selling a dress to Ms Fiesel with a dead rodent inside, Ms Fiesel has sustained significant personal injuries and emotional distress. She formed a large rash that was diagnosed as a rodent-born disease.
EW! EW! EWWW!
When reached out for a statement, Zara responded that they are 'aware of the issue', and are 'investigating the matter further'.
