I don’t usually follow fashion news but when this news article popped up on WWD, I had to take a look. For the uninitiated, Lindsay Lohan has a clothing/fashion line and for her new 6126 Collection, 2 designs had been pointed out to be remarkably similar to existing designs by other designers.
The 2 pictures above were taken from the 2 blogs that did side by side comparisons. Toomanytights.typepad.com shows 2 pairs of tights side by side and you must admit that the sketches do look remarkably similar to the existing item known as Sheer Spartans. See for yourself here.
The other item compared is a sketch from the new 6126 collection which bears resemblance to a Fall 2009 dress by Jen Kao. Comparison on fashionista.com here.
I wonder how far this will go. You gotta admit that without looking at material, texture or fit, but just by going with the designs, there are remarkable similarities between the sketches and the existing designs.
Thoughts? 🙂 Oh and one more question : I forget – is Lindsay Lohan a mouseketeer / actress/ singer or none of the above? 😛
Paris B
She was a child actor, and then she became a singer of sorts. And to think I used to like her haha
I think the only time I actually liked her was in Parent Trap back in 1998 (12yrs ago!!) but since then…more controversy than actual work…
The designs do look remarkably similar to each other – looks like she just sketched them and thought adding a little bit more detail and changing the length between hues would make them ‘original’….
Lindsay did her legging thing since 2005 long before any leggy back to mainstream(that guy just start his thing in 2008) so coincident in this case.
as for Jen Kao
LL(intentionally)wears her dress at opening party of her 6126 full clothing line.
I think it’s inspiration to Jen kao.(but Jen might take it the wrong way)
ps. Lindsay is Disney Girl/triple threat sort of not mouseketeer
(fyi)she has new movie coming up with Robert De Niro this year
maybe to her, it was deja vu! O.o
