The luxury label is the latest firm to face backlash for not adhering to China's territorial claims.
Luxury brand Versace has apologised after an image on one of its T-shirts appeared to imply Hong Kong and Macau were independent territories.
The T-shirts, images of which were shared on social media, featured city-country pairs such as Milan-Italy and London-UK.China has been increasingly strict in policing how foreign firms describe Hong Kong, which is part of China but has a special status, offering its people more autonomy than those on the mainland.In a post on Weibo, the Italian fashion label said it had stopped selling and had destroyed the T-shirts as of 24 July.
Last year, US retailer Gap has apologised for selling T-shirts which it said showed an"incorrect map" of China.
