SA Fashion war over copy cat skirts

fashion shows are often the source of the latest style and trends
in the clothing fashion.

Cat fight in the fashion industry seem to come with the territory and the latest spat between designers Thuli Sindi and Khensani appears to be no exception at the heart  of this tiff: an A line, high waist skirt with frill detail on the waistband.
Sindi alleged this week that Stoned Cherries Nkosi ripped of the design of his skirt that was showcased at Mercedes Benz Fashion week on 20 March 2012 Nkosi's similar skirt hit the catwalk at SA Fashion week in Rose bank last weekend.'' I was very suprised to see the skirts which remarkably similar to mine in pattern, detail and proportion walking down the run way said Sindi.

 It is sad when designers resort to mudslinging before researching whether their allegations hold water this is plagiarism and plagiarising other people's work is completely wrong

Well my argument is why  they copied someone else's work without acknowledging? this brings us to the point that when ever you decide to host a show there are things that you need to check such as:
  • Conducting a research
  • One needs to ask one self where the design was originated
  • need to make sure that its not plagiarism

Forever changing fashion

Fashion is a form of free speech says Sonia. It is impossible to catch up with fashion because it is forever changing by the time you manage to buy a jumsuit and a leather jacket they have gone out of fashion, smoking is out of fashion because it causes cancer but funny enough most smokers have not quit smoking while they are taught about the dangers of smoking through mass media communication  which means that the teachings are not enough.


Beggy trousers and pull overs are becoming popular once again the same is true about hairstyles.fashion are never standardized new trends are set everyday by films, film star and retailors lose no time to copy film design. Young girls and boys seem to be made after fashion they will never fell satisfied because they are winning after shadows.

I wonder why fashion changes from time to time?
