well that's not exactly the palestinian scarf.... and it's already on mall kids! has been for at least a year! i live in ontario, and i've seen ones made with sparkly gold threading, and in purple and pink - which is far more ridiculous.

and - do kids/people in general know where their clothes are coming from at all? whether it's a ripoff from another designer's collection, or from a sweatshop, or if it's representative of a political struggle.

i don't think that the "adventures in copyright" are really as negative or controversial as you guys seem to. really, is there any such thing as new or original ideas? granted, blatant logo ripoff, or tacky attempts to cash-in on a successful design (ie. fake crocs! ew!) are in poor taste. but i don't think one should feel guilty for buying an item that was "inspired" by another version. just because a label made something iconic, it doesn't mean that you are betraying them buy getting a similar design elsewhere!

does that mean that we shouldn't watch any reality tv, because it would be a betrayal to the original reality television show? (if it's even possible to agree on the "first"!) a poor example, i know.

could i say that chanel owns the LBD? and if it's not chanel, it's a ripoff?

those tights are great! maybe with a black or heather grey minidress, and small flats.
and then you could wear a really wild, mismatched bag.

love it
and since when don't couture outfits work off the runway? they don't work because people jump all over it when someone wears something "strange"

you guys are right that often more expensive designers provide a higher-quality experience, as far as fabric/cutting/etc goes, but i think often you guys get too caught up in mere prices of things.
