People these days are quite obsessed with brands, from clothes to shoes, people are very particular about it. But one of the most trusted clothing brand certainly failed to satisfy Cailey Fiesel– a woman from Greenwich in the United States, who purchased a dress from Zara.
Cailey Fiesel, a Manhattan woman, witness something in her brand new Zara dress which was no less than a scene in a horror movie as she came across a dead rat sewn into the hem, a new lawsuit alleges.
According to a report in Daily News, Cailey Fiesel bought two dresses from the Spanish clothier’s Greenwich, Conn. store last July, and hanged them in the closet after her purchase.

Fiesel, 24, wore the black dress for the first time in August 2016 to her job.
Cailey wore the dress to work and soon started to get a terrible smell.
While at work, she started to notice a disturbingly pungent odor and was unable to identify the source. Despite getting up from her desk and walking around, she was unable to escape this odor. 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 realized 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. 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.
Gross!
In reply Zara in a statement said:
“Zara USA has stringent health and safety standards, and we are committed to ensuring that all of our products meet these rigorous requirements.”
It is unclear what species of rodent was allegedly in Fiesel’s dress or how it got there.

Zara, Fiesel claims, had “manufactured, distributed, delivered, supplied, inspected, and/or sold the dress, which was unfit for its intended purpose and unreasonably hazardous, causing personal injury to the plaintiff.”
She also maintains the company “breached its duty to exercise reasonable care in designing, manufacturing, inspecting, distributing, delivering, supplying, inspecting, and/or selling its products by negligently releasing into the marketplace a product that was defective by containing disease causing rodents.”
