First, mainland-based retailers dropped luxury brand Dolce & Gabbana. Now, even Hong Kong-based and international companies are kicking the brand out of their stores.

The world's largest retailer of luxury brands, Yoox Net-a-Porter, as well as the Hong Kong-based department store operator Lane Crawford, both announced they will no longer carry Dolce & Gabbana, the South China Morning Post reports.

The retailers join a list of online vendors including Alibaba, JD.com, Secoo, VIPshop and NetEase in removing the Italian brand.

Dolce & Gabbana enraged Chinese consumers earlier this week when the brand shared three videos on Instagram that have since been deemed by netizens as racist. Later, screenshots circulated of co-founder Stefano Gabbana's private message box on Instagram that worsened the drama: the designer allegedly described China using five poop emojis.

The company has since apologized twice, as well as postponed the show it was scheduled to hold in Shanghai on Wednesday.
