NEXT is recalling a range of girls nightdresses over fears of how flammable the fabric is.
The three styles of nighties have been pulled from the shelves as the fabric does not comply with required safety standards.

This means that the dresses could more easily catch fire, putting the wearer at serious risk of burns.
The recall concerns the Lipsy Girl Jersey Nightwear in the “black sleep squad” style with the product number P20-765.
The “drama queen” and “I woke up like this” styles are also included in the recall with the respective product codes of P20-764 and R56-234.
Next is recalling the dresses immediately, urging anyone who bought the product to return it for a full refund.
Your product recall rights
PRODUCT recalls are an important means of protecting consumers from dangerous goods.
As a general rule, if a recall involves a branded product, the manufacturer would usually have lead responsibility for the recall action.
But it’s often left up to supermarkets to notify customers when products could put them at risk.
If you are concerned about the safety of a product you own, always check the manufacturer’s website to see if a safety notice has been issued.
When it comes to appliances, rather than just food items, the onus is usually on you – the customer – to register the appliance with the manufacturer as if you don’t there is no way of contacting you to tell you about a fault.
If you become aware that an item you own has been recalled or has any safety noticed issued against it, make sure you follow the instructions given to you by the manufacturer.
They should usually provide you with more information and a contact number on its safety notice.
In some cases, the manufacturer might ask you to return the item for a full refund or arrange for the faulty product to be collected.
You should not be charged for any recall work – such as a repair, replacement or collection of the recalled item.
Shoppers can return the items by taking them back to a Next store in person.
You can find your nearest store using the retailer’s online locator tool.
Alternatively, you can arrange for the nightdress to be collected from your home.
For collections, you can call 0333 777 8000* and choose option 1.
You can also call Selfserve on 0800 587 7758 where you’ll need to input their Selfserve number and select option 3.
Another way to organise a collection is by signing in to ‘My Account’ on the Next website and selecting ‘Arrange a Return’ from the menu.
Anyone who gave the dress as a gift is urged to contact the recipient and ask them to contact Next.
The retailer said: “We’re very sorry for any disappointment and inconvenience this may cause.”
The Sun has contacted Next to ask whether or not customers will need a receipt to claim the refund and we will update this page when we know more.
