At least three Chinese celebrities on Saturday dropped German fashion house Hugo Boss, the latest foreign brand caught in a concerted boycott by Chinese consumers over Western accusations of forced labour in Xinjiang.

Hugo Boss, in a post on its Weibo account on Thursday, said it would"continue to purchase and support Xinjiang cotton." But it said on Friday that it was not an authorised post, and had been deleted accordingly. Chinese internet users have accused Hugo Boss for backtracking on its position, saying the brand was being"two faced", with some vowing to boycott the brand for good.The United States on Friday condemned what it called a"state-led" social media campaign in China against U.S. and other international companies for deciding not to use cotton from China's Xinjiang region over forced labour concerns.
