Why do you doubt DVF saw it – because its a Canadian label?
People rip off Canadian designers ALL the time thinking people will adopt the exact same mentality you obviously just did & assume its a coincidence.
That Mercy jacket was around. Just like Beckerman was around.
I’m sorry but the resemblance between those two jackets is a little more than a coincidence. That much is obvious.
wow her neck just looks gigantic
That picture is gonna give me nightmares.
And if that rip-off was a forever 21 jacket you’d be giving them hell.
Those jackets are nearly identical. Too close to be a coincidence. Just because it’s DVF doesn’t mean it’s impossible to copy.
I and #3 is right, if it was Forever 21 or some downscale lable you’d be all over it.
I concur.
DVF has agreed to compensate them & is apparently “horrified”…

guys seriously..look at her neck
so you can have too much of a good thing
If you squint, that neck looks like a separate organism.
That is some intense neckage.
Wow @ her neck… Just… wow.
Wow. I don’t even think the women who wear rings around their necks can pull that shot off. Maybe it’s the angle, but her neck looks really thick as well.

The way her neck is stretched makes her look like a giant penis. for real.
If you squint, the picture actually looks like a man’s penis. seriously. the neck is the shaft…etc. subtle.
when does it go from counterfeit to matchy matchy?
A quotation from the article, which I think applies directly to your ‘Adventures in Copyright’ ethic: “…Or maybe for all their protesting, American fashion brands think intellectual property applies only to major, established designers with international profile. I mean, why else would Marc Jacobs have similarly appropriated the design of an obscure vintage souvenir scarf from Linsell, Sweden, figuring nobody would notice?”
Considering the overwhelming majority of your accusations are in the defense of upscale labels, I think you guys should take a long, hard look at what your motives truly are, and what you’re truly protecting. And maybe do a some background reading on the philosophy of intellectual copyright.
I know that you guys need to keep the major players in the industry sweet so you can get jobs if and when this blog goes belly-up, but despite your grovelling insistence that DVF would never have copied a humble,struggling Canadian designer, she has chosen to compensate the designer. (Guilty!)
As usual a copyright post makes you guys look like arseholes!
LMAO
tyra banks in the vf album… talk about delusional
Yes it’s sad. I have a lot of designer friends who just find pieces and copy them almost exactly. And people who design for a design house or brand name do just the same. They are always on ‘inspiration trips’ where they go to different countries to buy things to copy them with very minor changes.
Pathetic. Where has all the talent and original thought gone? They just can’t be bothered.
