Zara Sued by Woman Who Smelled a Rat in Her Dress

A woman is suing clothing giant Zara over a rat -- or at least part of one -- that she says was sewn into the hem of a dress she'd bought off the rack.

Cailey Fiesel says she snapped up the dress at Zara's Greenwich, CT store in July, and when she finally wore it to work a few weeks later she noticed a "disturbingly pungent odor."

Later on that day, Cailey says she noticed a loose string rubbing against her leg, and when she reached down felt an unusual bulge in the dress. That's when she realized the string was actually the leg of a dead rodent.

Cailey says she developed a large rash that doctors diagnosed as a rodent born disease. She's suing for unspecified damages.
