Outfit look-alikes #5

Isn't inspiration always derivation? You see something that insipres you, and you derive an idea from it.

If you transform it to look radically different from the thing that inspired you, then it´s not a derivation. In this case you can tell where the concept is coming (supposedly) from.

By those standards though, very little could ever be considered not derivative.

Exactly, that´s it!

HAHAHAHAHA!!! That's fantastic!

I'm quite positive McQueen caught the idea from the CdG 'dress'. He used to do that quite a lot and was a huge fan of Rei.

The random girl wore it better. Amazing find!

LOL sorry but I think you completely missed Spike's point. it's all just a euphemism for stealing.

I got it when he wrote it. Nowadays design is about derivation.

I don't see a look-alike. It's a use of a classic technique, like drapés, plissés...etc.

Well, this is... awkward

well it's awkward, but i guess using Schlemmer's Bauhaus logo is not a super-original idea either

Wow! That is the best outfit look-alike so far in my opinion! That's a direct copy of a symbol! You can't hide that!

It's not really a "copy of a symbol", it's simply using the symbol as a print.

And no designer can really claim that jacket, it's a staple piece that has been around since the 50s.

^ There was an interesting article on Vogue a few days ago about where the embroidered bomber jacket originated - a great read.
