Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery
July 23, 2008Or just another way to be a jerk.
One of my favoritestest blogs (besides this new one about CAKES! Yay cakes!) is Fashionista, and my favoritestest parts about their blog is when they point out the blatant copyright infringements that run rampant in the fashion industry. Most of their posts deal with Forever 21 but I just found my own on ModCloth.
I present you with the “Dreamsicle” dress by a clothing brand named Shulima. Never heard of it, but the dress looks mighty familiar.
Oh, I know why. Because it’s a super popular dress by Marc by Marc Jacobs.
If there’s a plus side to fashion copycats, all the cheap material will drive smart consumers to purchase the real version with better quality. Note to self: if I ever try to sell a cheap dress online, make sure to iron it well first.
Anyway…what else is going on? Oh yeah. Did anyone else notice how much eyeliner the mayor (played by Nestor Campbell) was wearing in Dark Knight? What the hell was up with that?
where’s the link to the cake blog? don’t joke about cake.
my bad. i forgot to add it but it’s all fixed.
thank you! (although some of those cakes scare me)
ooo… yea… good point and good eye!
