Givenchy’s new T-shirts are hot — literally!
Three men’s tees from the Riccardo Tisci–helmed brand’s Spring/Summer 2016 line were recalled on Tuesday, April 5. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the silk shirts “fail to meet the federal flammability standard for wearing apparel and pose a risk of burn injury to consumers.”
The tops, offered in stripes, plaid and with images of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion, retail between $685 and $1,350 at stores such as Barneys New York, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Givenchy boutiques. The French fashion house loved by Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Beyoncé and more, must directly contact consumers who have purchased the recalled T-shirts.
Luckily, only 60 shirts have been sold in the U.S. — and the CPSC reported that no incidents or injuries have been reported just yet. But that pales in comparison with Ivanka Trump’s scarves. The CPSC recalled roughly 20,000 scarves from the 34-year-old businesswoman’s eponymous line on April 6 — for the same reason as the Givenchy tees.
