Kim Kardashian Slams Fashion Brands for Ripping Off Her Looks

Kim Kardashian is speaking out to slam fast fashion brands who are ripping off the designs that she wears.

After turning heads in a jaw-dropping vintage Mugler dress this weekend, Fashion Nova had a very similar design on its website less than 24 hours later.

“It’s devastating to see these fashion companies rip off designs that have taken the blood, sweat and tears of true designers who have put their all into their own original ideas,” Kim wrote on her Instagram Stories. “I’ve watched these companies profit off my husband’s work for years and now that it’s also affecting designers who have been so generous to give me access to their beautiful works, I can no longer sit silent.”

“Only two days ago, I was privileged enough to wear a one-of-a-kind vintage Mugler dress and in less than 24 hours it was knocked off and thrown up on a site – but it’s not for sale. You have to sign up for a waitlist because the dress hasn’t even been made to sell yet,” she continued. “This is a way to get people to sign up for their mailing list and make people believe there is some kind of relationship between me and this fashion site. There is not.”

“My relationships with designers are very important to me. It’s taken me over a decade to build them and I have a huge amount of respect for the amount of work that they put into bringing their ideas to life,” Kim wrote. “I often plan for weeks, sometimes months, and even a year in advance, and I’m grateful for every fashion moment those designers and their dresses have helped me create.”

“So, as always, don’t believe everything you read and see online. I don’t have any relationships with these sites. I’m not leaking my looks to anyone, and I don’t support what these companies are doing,” she concluded.

The “Winning Beauty Cutout Gown” sells for $49.99 on Fashion Nova‘s website and it sold out within minutes.
