A growing online campaign to persuade American shoppers to boycott Ivanka Trumps fashion products and the retailers that stock them, called #GrabYourWallet, appears to be biting.
Footwear website Shoes.com stopped selling shoes from the Ivanka Trump Collection shortly after her father became the shock winner of the US presidential election.
Now US interior decor specialist Bellacor has dropped the Trump Home range of chandeliers and other home fittings and accessories from its website.
Both companies had been targeted by California businesswoman Shannon Coulter, who created the hashtag #GrabYourWallet on Twitter in October after the audio tape emerged revealing Trump boasting about sexually assaulting women in 2005.
