Zara says some people saw something in the advertising images 'far from what was intended'. (James Ross/AAP PHOTOS)Fashion brand Zara says it regrets the "misunderstanding" over an advertising campaign featuring mannequins with missing limbs and statues wrapped in white that triggered calls for a boycott by some pro-Palestinian activists. "Zara regrets that misunderstanding and we reaffirm our deep respect towards everyone," Zara said. Zara said at the launch of the collection on December 7 that it was inspired by men's tailoring from past centuries. The photos appeared to show an artist studio with ladders, packing materials, wooden crates and cranes, and assistants wearing overalls.
