Target Apologizes for “Offensive” Halloween Costume for Kids

Target is issuing an apology. 

The retailer spoke out to address backlash over a children’s Halloween costume that it was allegedly selling under the name “Kids’ Glows Under Blacklight Circus Clown.”

“An apology from us: We pulled an offensive Halloween costume that should never have been part of our assortment,” Target wrote in a statement to X Aug. 24. “As a company, we got this wrong, and we are deeply sorry.”

The corporation said that the bodysuit—which drew comparisons to “racist minstrel imagery” on social media—is no longer for sale.

“We know this is especially hurtful for our Black guests, team members and partners,” the statement continued. “Removing the costume is an important first step, and the company is looking closely at how this happened and what needs to change to ensure this won’t happen again.”
