American manufacturer of souvenirs accused Balenciaga of plagiarism

News24xx.com - The fashion house "Balenciaga" was again in the center of the scandal. This time, Demna Gvasalia was accused of plagiarism. The American company "City Merchandise", which produces souvenirs, sued the brand.

Representatives of the company believe that in the "Balenciaga" copied the design of accessories: a bag-tote and a wallet with the inscriptions New York. The producers of souvenirs saw a suspicious resemblance between prints with types of skyscrapers, as well as between the sizes of their own products and models of "Balenciaga".

At the same time, the price policy of the brands, of course, was not so unanimous: the bag of Demna Gvasalia will cost $ 1950, and a souvenir can be bought only for $ 19.99.

For «Balenciaga», this accusation was no longer the first time: the brand was previously suspected of plagiarizing a bag-package from Ikea.
