Adventures in Copyrights: Move Along

hollandaise.jpg

Earth to Urban Outfitters:

Even the darling Henry Holland has moved on from his crazy t-shirts with the filled in letters, and yet, you still seem a little hung up.

We know it’s tempting to buy giant shirts and slap vaguely rhyming words on them.

We know that neon is your summertime friend.

But if you’re going to copy something, how about a trend that hasn’t popped yet? We’re still waiting for the band-aid dresses and skirts from Proenza to get a mass-market take…

(these, on the other hand, are amazing).

It would be pretty easy to copy the Proenza skirt - buy two or three cotton skirts from American Apparel and combine them. But I am not positive about what sort of stich to use to sew interlock knit.

This skirt would work:

you need a fancy machine to sew knits together right... most people don't have access to them (a surger) so a DIY would be kinda useless.

I saw these shirts yesterday while I was buying my Cheap monday jeans. The shirts are tacky. Surprise surprise.

the weapons (horribly comfortable shoes) are $10 cheaper at zappos.

and casey, a zigzag stitch would sort-of work for home sewers desperately in need of a proenza fix.
