And the thing is fashion is highly referential but these designers and their fans & celebs (celeb-adjacent folks) love to present as innovators who pulled these references out of thin air or make up the references. Keep going, embarrassment will keep knocking
If Kim Kardashian, Doja Cat, Winnie Harlow, Lizzo, Gwen Stefani, Victoria Monet, Jourdan Dunn & many more can ALL tag me when they wore my designs….
Let’s not even go into this part cos the number of “is it not just to draw” you’ll hear. They’re not actual creatives and would rather die than pay properly for one.
It was only a matter of time before the actual designers caught on with how much of their designs get stolen by Nigerian fashion houses. Valdrin suffered it a lot years ago but didn’t make too much noise about it.
RTW brands are not left out of the theft as well.
Talking to my friends, seeing them, omo such a rejuvenating experience. The laughs, the hugs, the gist, the encouragement, the tears, all of it. Friends are life
