Chanel has recalled over 150 scarves, dresses, skirts, and blouses that “fail to meet the federal flammability standard for wearing apparel, posing a fire hazard to consumers,” according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. While it’s unclear exactly what that means (will they just spontaneously burst into flame?!), the garments ranged from $430 to $3,650 and were sold at Chanel boutiques and some department stores between March and April 2010.
