Observers of plagiarism

Those so-called coincidences and tributes

Diet_prada is an anonymous account on instagram, from established fashion houses to new independent designer brands, but where there are extreme similarities. It will intuitively release the photo comparison of the two, and point out the relationship between the two, the rhetoric and ridicule, in the plagiarism of fashion designer creators frequently appear today, its existence to a certain extent deterred those unscrupulous designers.

â–² Left: LV; Right: Gucci

The early spring series of Gucci 2018 allegedly copied Louis Vuitton in the early years, but later Gucci also admitted that it was inspired by Dapper Dan.

Since its creation in 2014, Diet_prada has seen up to 500 plagiarism incidents in just three years. In addition to the enthusiasm of the plagiarists who could not hang on their faces and watch the audience, the number of these people is inevitably confusing.

â–² Left: Balenciaga; Right: OFF-White

Although the down vest is not a fresh single product, the choice of overall shape and color saturation makes people feel suspicious

In fact, the development of any kind of thing is inseparable from the traditional part, but the blatant “reference” is an insult to art workers. Everyone's thinking has many overlapping parts, but this is not the reason why people born late have a complete copy of their works.

▲ Left: CéLINE; Right: TIBI

It seems that a professional women's clothing brand will pay tribute to CéLINE as if it were a ceremony that must go through.

These "surprising discoveries" that were enumerated one by one are celebrities plagiarism designers, small brand plagiarism big names, and big names plagiarism. The healthy development of every industry requires order and rules. Diet_prada is now playing the role of “fashion police”.

â–² Left: Dior; Right: Moschino

Moschino's "tribute" this time, color rendering techniques, not even Dior refined years ago

This account has been so sought after by fashion enthusiasts not only because of the consolidation of those plagiarism collections, but also to match similar styling works with what they call inspiration. More is to remind people not to forget those designers who exist in the past and behind the good works.

â–² Left: Saint Laurent; Right: Alexander Vauthier

The future trend of technology and special fabrics is right now. Alexander Vauthier, who can be used for a long time, should pay attention to the fact that this style of clothing is exactly the same.

Although each push contains a certain amount of language sarcasm, however, the establishment of this account is not simply malicious. Anonymous creators of account @Diet_prada are themselves in the fashion industry. This account is only a natural extension of the creator's passion for fashion – researching the history of fashion and understanding how the current trends have emerged from the past.

â–² Left: Chanel; Right: Vaquera

“Vaquera NYC promised to bring originality and surprises at the New York Fashion Week, and then they brought a Chanel skirt with a concert bra designed by JPG for Madonna.” — Diet_Prada

Having read these blatant plagiarism and so-called "reference", I believe that everyone is also very clear about the boundaries between this. Different interpretations of the same thing by the designer are combined with the design language to present what is to be expressed. Even if there is a completely overlapping part, as long as it is a true creation, we can read this exclusive content through the work.

â–² Left: Shinichiro Arakawa; Right: Vaquera

In 1995, Japanese designer Shinichiro Arakawa's work “returned” to stage T, but changed the label.

Excursions to see these fake references, and now let Fairy take you to see those "bold" copy of nature's designer works and inspiration.

Designers need to constantly absorb inspiration from the outside world, but the definition of scale and reference to this model is totally different from person to person. As consumers, we can buy what we like best and we may add it later when we complete the consumption process. Many thoughts about this link, such as the question “Is this design worth my bill?”, believe that we can also provide a more sound and standardized creative environment for fashion designers and even artists.

The freedom of creation is given by myself
