Itaalia moemaja kritiseeritakse ligi 800 dollarit maksva turbani eest, mis meenutab kangesti sikhide peakatet. Turbanit nähti esmalt mullu talvel Milano moenädalal. Tookord kandis seda valgenahaline meesmodell ning Guccit kritiseeriti soovimatuse eest kasutada tõmmut modelli.
This is beyond aggravating. Did someone at @gucci even bother to figure out what a dastaar (turban) means to Sikhs? Did it cross your minds to consider the history behind our identity? My people are discriminated against, even killed, for wearing a turban. pic.twitter.com/G62edSmjhf

Nüüd aga on skandaal uue hoo sisse saanud: Nordstromi kaubamaja müüb Gucci peakatet ligi 800 dollari eest ning kiidab selle efektsust ja mugavust. Sotsiaalmeedias pahandatakse: kas Gucci tõesti ei tea, et turban on sikhidele oma usu väljendus, kujutades au, eneseväärikust, julgust, spirituaalsust ja vagadust? "Võlts-sikhide ja -turbanite kasutamine on hullem kui võlts-Gucci toodete müümine," arvab üks kommentaator.
Dear @gucci, the Sikh Turban is not a hot new accessory for white models but an article of faith for practising Sikhs. Your models have used Turbans as ‘hats’ whereas practising Sikhs tie them neatly fold-by-fold. Using fake Sikhs/Turbans is worse than selling fake Gucci products pic.twitter.com/sOaKgNmgwR
