Copy Cat




Since I started to study fashion, I have learnt at school that fashion is continuously recycled and reused, without shame. We look at fashion from the early days on, until now and see where and what has been reused, which influences have been used and where it originates from. It is really interesting to study because once you know this, you can see how your own outfits are influenced by what designers have done in the past and which style it originates from.

I recently found this website, www.intothefashion.com, which shows how over time, very similar garments have been created and imitated. But, don't take it bad... It's practically impossible to create something completely new nowadays. Everything has been done before- we can give it a new twist, but creating a whole new something, without any inspiration of the past isn't done. This website points fingers on this, and displays it perfectly! I love it!
