Prada-ish Zara





Remember my previous post on how Zara replicates luxury brands such as Prada & Marni? Well look what I have found at Zara this week. Prada-like shoes, bag, and a skirt. This is so surreal! The bag & the shoes are sold for KD 29.500 and the skirt costs KD 26.500. A very small price to pay to get the Prada fall look.

Would you feel offended if you find such items at Zara when you have actually paid more than KD500 to get the original Prada bag?

I hate replicas.. but as 4 said, inspired pieces are OK. I see designers borrow from each other so why not! but to buy a replica, I am totally against it! Fake is so lame! and I like to play the "spot the fake" heehee

I agree with what was said earlier. Inspired items are OK. But replicas? That's bad.
