The 'Outfit Look-Alikes' Thread

I mean also a part of the show's concept then unexplained ^ink:

It is nice if they credit the past
Where they take or what exactly they alter.
In runway reviews it adds interest or depth to the show
I have seen things unexplained, which is regrettable... a great artist, great work of art etc

So true! It´s the honest way to do it; and it also adds to the concept explanation of a collection.

I do wonder just how much they collage parts from already existing pieces- and how much is original

^ I'm almost certain that that actually is the Gucci dress, which could have been borrowed by the stylist for the campaign.

As far as I know the brand doesn't make much clothing aside from some leather/street pieces.

Spike is right - many brands use other (especially more prestigious) brands in their advertisements and lookbooks. it can have a halo effect on their brand.

i remember Target pairing some fiorentini and baker boots with their clothing items in a lookbook years ago.

One brand that does this in practically every campaign and lookbook and instore-magazine is H&M. it confuses the consumer because H&M may sell in the same category.

Hmmm ... I had no idea that some stores did this. But, it makes sense to me, because I know that in makeup ad campaigns, the makeup artists often use their own brand of makeup on the models ... not the client's brand. This mainly because there is a distinct difference between over the counter makeup (even the high end brands) and professional makeup. So ... it seems that they might do that in other areas too ... for, as Lucy said, a halo effect.

they usually do this, but will edit some of the design elements in post-production so that it isnt noticeably obvious. I think there are legal issues if a brand uses another brand

it could be more of a legal issue if it is a current season item.
magazine editors can always just call the item "stylists own" in advertorials. they may consider it journalistic license.

^^^ He really is just nothing more than the 2016 version of Christian Francis Roth, isn't he...? So basic and one-note.

 

[YohjiAddict]

The Jil Sander vs. Loewe comparision has already been posted. I'm 90% sure.

 

[BetteT]

I checked for you .... and the only post in this thread with these 2 lines is this one ... with different dates: http://forums.thefashionspot.com/showpost.php?p=12748021&postcount=60 And since there are no photos anymore, this post would be allowed to stand (if it was a duplicate).

HM is really unscrupulous isnt it?
i mean, if Giuzeppe Zanoti uses a piece of clothing, I can understand since they dont produce clothes, but for HM to use some high end fashion houses" stuff and trying to pass off as their own is downright low and lacking in integrity.

Not sure if the pant fold is common (I've seen some asymmetrical pants but not necessarily with this pattern), but I think it belongs in the look-alike thread nonetheless.

How come no one ever mentions Pheobe's love for my dear Yohji! the "inspirations" have always been there...
