Arden B buys a lot of their stuff from branded clothing companies, and then switch out the labels. They've even bought denim from a company I represent and switched the labels to their own.

I've noticed that about Arden B--I bought a silver racerback sequin dress from Mango in Berlin last January and then found the same thing at Arden B in July in the US.

that's crazy 'cause the price difference isn't even that much, 88 or 95.

Damn ! this is the closest straight up copy I have seen! Although I wouldn't wear either especially knowing that one was being sold at Arden B which means there will be little identical drones walking wround in the same outfit!

IT'S CALLED PRIVATE LABEL.
Get into it!
What do you think the thousands of showrooms in Manhattan do to make money?! They sell the same pieces to several different retailers...

PLUS it is copying all the painterly, floral, etc stuff from the runway (esp balenciaga).

This isn't a copyright infringement. Since when is ShopIntuition considered high fashion? They sell the same pieces as Arden B, Bebe, Wet Slut, etc.
