Target is doing some damage control after it described the colour on one of it’s plus-sized women’s dresses as “manatee gray.” Maybe this wouldn’t be much of a problem, except for the fact that the same dress in regular sizes was described as “dark heather gray” on the Target website.
The discrepancy — describing one dress in terms of a delicate flower and another in terms of a sea creature that survives on its massive fat reserves — was pointed out by writer and designer Susan Clemens on Twitter.
