    I suppose this loops back into the persistent discussion of what constitutes copy-pasting and what constitutes homage or inspiration. That also sometimes has to do with how recognizable or "iconic" the element being referenced is.

    To me A1923 is not quite so distinct as this shite:



    But your point definitely stands. At least she has the balls to openly admit she's ripping Rick off in interviews.

      Even if one were to agree with the claim that A1923 is nothing but a copycat label, there's still the craft to fallback on. Surely no one will deny that Simone is very good at that aspect?

      As for Cinzia Araia, even if it weren't mostly a rip-off of other brands, it would still be straight-up garbage.

                Looks like I'm gonna have to find a proxy. Thanks for that.

                What sort of stuff is usually around there?

                  In what sense? The location near the sample sale space or what were they stocking?

                    Stocking. Like, should I look at his latest runway show to get an idea of what's going to be there or is it just going to be a mismash and I should mostly look to see what he tends to repeat every season or two to gauge what might be there? Thanks.

                      I'd say the latter, it mostly looked like SS 15 judging by what Ink has on sale but I'm not super acquainted with his work.

                        A mixture of samples and previous season backstock with emphasis on S15. Maybe 10-15 pairs of shoes total when I went and 4 sparsely filled racks with nothing really pre-dating 2014. If you're a 46 in Plokhov, you can clean house (I did). Prices were solid, staff were friendly, and the man himself was kicking about. Unless they plan on restocking, I can't imagine a proxy being worth your time or theirs because most things probably went quick as there wasn't a ton of stuff to begin with.

                          Well damn. Good to know. Hopefully someone throws stuff on the Classifieds without asking for too much extra.

                            Both of these listings seem almost too good to be true since both the posters have 0 feedback on grailed so proceed with caution but paypal always has your back anyway right.
