Controversies in fashion: t-Shirts withdrawn from the market by its messages

In the fashion industry have always been designs that have generated controversy, and recently, several t-shirts of chain in low cost have sown controversy in the social networks, forcing the own brands to check out garments on the market.
Long ago jumped the controversy due to a t-shirt that you could buy on ASOS, one of the websites of online fashion most popular at the international level. The t-shirt had a S with the word Slave – slave in English – in black, and the model that posed with the garment was of the colored race. A garment that raised a lot of criticism towards the web site, that what ended up withdrawing.

Topshop presented for many seasons t-shirt designs for men with clear messages of machismo, something that generated a wave of criticism toward the brand. What did Abercrombie & Fitch, with a t-shirt on which he could read – Who needs a brain you have this? – referring to the breasts of women.

But if there is a brand queen in controversial fashion is concerned, this is Zara. The signature flagship of Inditex did enrage the whole world to create a jersey tee with a gold star not differed too much from the uniforms of the jewish prisoners in the nazi death camps. They created an online petition for brand to withdraw the pledge of the market, and Zara claimed that the inspiration for the jersey was the wild west. The social pressure did that in the end you end up removing the garment in question.

There are two t-shirts from Zara that have recently aroused controversy and comments on the Internet. The last is the t-shirt that makes reference to the gluten, something that has outraged the community of celiacs. We created a petition in change.org and he was so media the impact that the brand withdrew the garment. Between some of the arguments of the signatories is the idea that “being celiac is not fashion”, something that the trademark seemed to be trying to promote. Another design of t-shirt from Zara that raised controversy was the of White is the New Black – White is the new Black – which ended up being withdrawn.
