Purlicue's 2017 Spring/Summer Collection Challenges Conventional Ideas of Design
“The Fake” range mimics details from other brands.
Purlicue has just released a lookbook for its 2017 spring/summer collection. The range boasts a wide range of pieces that will bode well with some of today’s hottest style trends. Also called “The Fake” collection, the whole roster is practically a rip on a lot of designer Su WuKou’s favorite items from other brands. According to the label:
The only original design from “The Fake” collection, is the hangtag that comes with the pieces. The hangtag includes the patterns of a non-manufactured piece from the collection, which allows buyers to create a garment which is another degree of plagiarizing.
It’s a pretty bold move by the design house but in this day in age where parodies and ironic collaborations are big in the industry, collections like these are not too surprising.
