Gap And Stella McCartney Announce A Second
Kids & Baby Collection

Collection will be carried in select stores in Spring 2010, following success of
first collection

GapKids and babyGap, two of the most recognized names in children's apparel, announced today plans for a second collection created for Gap by Stella McCartney. Expected to launch in March 2010, the collection will be carried in select GapKids and babyGap stores in the United States and Canada, the UK, France and Ireland, and Japan, as well as online in the US. In addition the collection will be available in selected stores in Russia, Turkey, Greece, Asia and the Middle East.

"We're pleased and encouraged by the response to our first collection working with Stella," said Marka Hansen, President of Gap brand. "The combination of her unique aesthetic and our brand's quality and store experience has resonated with our customers around the world, with certain styles including the Miller jacket being a sellout success. We're thrilled to be working with Stella on a Spring collection."

*Important Safety Notice Regarding An Item At GapKids*

At Gap, customer safety is a top priority for us. This is why we're alerting you to important news related to an item you may have recently purchased at our stores.

It has come to our attention that the glass beads on several styles of a GapKids girl's tank top do not meet our stringent safety standards and certain government regulations. The tops were sold exclusively in our GapKids stores in the U.S. and Canada between February 15 and 28, 2010. They come in two colors – white and grey. You can find the following style numbers printed on the inner center neck seam of the tanks pictured below: 707083-001 (US), 707083-011(US), 707083-004(CAN), 707083-014(CAN).

We have alerted Health Canada and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and are currently working with these agencies to resolve the issue. In the meantime, we are asking our Canada customers to return this product to the nearest GapKids store as soon as possible for a full refund of the purchase price paid. To make this process easier, please bring a copy of your receipt with you when making your return.

Customers who return their items will receive a full refund on the purchase price paid within one to two billing cycles. In addition, and as a gesture of our appreciation, we're offering a coupon for 20% off that you may use for a future purchase of any one item at a GapKids store.

If you gave any of these girl's tank tops to someone as a gift, please inform them about this safety concern so they may return them as well.
