Here some explanation concerning a logo we used for a special and limited T-shirt edition produced last season.On this specific T-shirt collection we had printed the letters f.u.c.k.u.china.
The PHILIPP PLEIN Int. AG company would like to explain what lies behind this abbreviation and give the following statement: f.u.c.k.u.china stands for “the fascinating & urban collection: kiss you China”.
We would like to specify that we never intended to hurt or offend the citizens of China.
On the contrary, with this collection we wanted to thank China because it gives us the possibility to produce some articles of our collection on a competitive price basis.
In addition, the man craft we found in China is very precise and leads to a good quality of the clothes.
This is a great satisfaction for us and for our end customers.
We are a young and dynamic company and this is why we intituled this limited T-shirt edition “fascinating and urban” collection and “kiss” is a way to thank the Chinese savoir-faire.
Since we have been pointed out that the message is not clear and leads to controversy, these T-shirts - that were already limited to start with (max.100 T-shirts have been produced) - have been retired from the market.
Once again, we are sincerely sorry if the abbreviation of the logo has been misinterpreted. We never wanted to offend anyone.
Thank you for comprehension. Philipp Plein International AG kochenSäntisstrasse 7'U 8580 Amriswil Tel.: 0041-71-414-2550 Fax: 0041-71-414-2560

中国驻法兰克福总领馆官员还对记者表示,他们注意到了德国之声中文网日前对不来梅一家商店出售印有“FUCK YOU CHINA”字样的T恤衫的报导,驻德中国使领馆对此非常关注,也非常愤怒,认为这是“严重的辱华事件”,“太不象话了”。中国驻汉堡总领馆已经与不来梅市政府有关部门提出交涉,并将赴实地,对有关商店和公司表示抗议。
