Product Recall: Basic Editions-brand Girls' Clothing Sets
Categories: Health & Safety, Kid Decor & Style
Millennium Apparel Group, of New York, N.Y., in cooperation with the Consumer Product Safety Commission, is voluntarily recalling their Basic Editions-brand Girls' Clothing Sets. The shirts in these sets have drawstrings at the waist which can get entangled or caught in a car door, resulting in the wearer being dragged and possibly killed. It's been more than ten years since the CPSC issued its guidelines to help prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on the neck and waist by drawstrings in upper garments. The two sets of clothing being recalled have fully tunneled waist drawstrings and two-fer style layered shirts. One set has a light green shirt with "Varsity Club Winning Attitude" printed on it, while the other has an orange shirt with "Paradise University Girls Club" written on it. The shirts came with contrasting colored shorts. They were sold in girls' sizes 4/5, 6/6X, 7/8, and 10/12 at Kmart stores from March through May of this year. They cost between $10 and $13.
To eliminate the hazard, remove the drawstrings from the shirts immediately. For more information, contact Kmart at (800) 659-7026 between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. CT Monday through Saturday, or visit the firm's Web site.
