The most popular designer at present is Virgil Abloh, who studied architecture, worked as a DJ, was appreciated by Kanye West and became his creative director. Later, he founded OFF-WHITE, a popular brand, and reached the peak of his career on 20 18-becoming the creative director of Louis Vuitton's men's wear. Under his control, Louis Vuitton men's wear glows with new vitality, applauding and making a big impression. However, with the cheers, his controversy has never stopped, and the controversy about whether Virgil Hablot plagiarized has intensified for a time.

In the Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter Men's Wear 2020 released this year 1 month, Virgil Abloh, the brand director, created a wonderful men's wear series with "paradise on earth" and pure and flawless cloud elements. But after the applause, many viewers felt that he had "misappropriated" the elements of the cloud, and his creative inspiration coincided with that of many designers in the past.

The show built with the concept of "paradise on earth" is equally amazing. By paying tribute to traditional statues, surreal giant tools are scattered in the dreamy sky cloud pictures, creating a wonderful world. This move has also been questioned, because photographer steven meisel used similar ideas in his work entitled "Composition" for the brand Loewe in 20 17. Although it seems politically correct to criticize Virgil Hablot now, it is also caused by his "criminal record".

Coincidentally, Virgil Abloh released the Louis Vuitton S/S 2020 series in June last year, in which the metal logo connecting the top is strikingly similar to the spring and summer women's wear released by YSL 2008.

For Virgil Abolh's plagiarism, we should also talk about another famous designer, raf simons. Many critics believe that Virgil Aboul is a faithful believer of raf simons, and many of his works have traces of raf simons, while raf simons repeatedly refused to comment on Virgil Aboul in interviews. Louis Vuitton's spring and summer advertisement released on 20 19 was even accused of naked copying Calvin Klein's 205W39NYC S/S 20 18 advertising idea.

His own brand OFF-WHITE is also facing suspected plagiarism. In the autumn and winter women's clothing released last year, his plaid creativity even came across Louis Vuitton's 20 13 spring and summer women's clothing series. OFF-WHITE was criticized more on 20 18. At the beginning of 20 18, designer Phillp Lim personally stepped off the stage and accused Virgil Abloh of copying his word bag. Then OFF-WHITE deleted the photo of the handbag, but he didn't respond. In may of the same year, Virgil Abloh x IKEA's joint name was pointed out by DietPrada, a well-known account of ins. When he came in August, he planned a project called "Challenge", but he was accused of completely copying the Japanese brand Anrealage, with no creativity at all.

There are many such things. In the face of plagiarism, Virgil Abloh responded at a joint press conference with IKEA. "Only a small number of people in life know how to recognize design. Every item in this series reminds you that he is from 20 18, not 1800. "

Modern clothing has developed for so many years, and the fashion week is going year by year. There is nothing wrong with the same design inspiration or reference, but it needs restraint. Virgil Hablot was charged three times and four times. As for whether he plagiarized or not, I believe everyone has an answer.
