Zutopia Girls Loungewear Recall

December 12, 2003

Fifteen different styles of "Zutopia” girl’s loungewear are being recalled. The loungewear failed to meet federal flammability standards for children’s sleepwear posing a risk of serious burn injuries to children.

The standard requires sleepwear, including loungewear, to be flame resistant and if the garment ignites, the flame must self-extinguish.
