Being a lover of high end fashion and the designers behind the works of art, I respect the "real deal" and I really get quite emotional about people who choose to buy "fakes" or "inferior copies" (whatever you want to call them). I do not believe in what that industry promotes, and lives they ruin in the process.
I also have a strong dislike for intellectual property which is not copying the designs exactly but they know exactly what they are doing. If this is unclear to anyone with what I am meaning I will give you a few examples of what has gotten me quite outraged:
As you can see the soles of these shoes are red. A blatant copy of Louboutin's soles, and what makes his heels stand out and recognisable. It's what distinguishes his shoes, and has had alot to do with making them the icon they are!People may just think of it as a "sole" of a shoe, but to make their whole line red soled and 5 inch heels, to me is stealing Louboutin's intellectual property and there would have to be copyright issues here.
I actually liked this brand before they started making their soles red, and will never buy a pair of theirs.
I know people have different opinions on this, however I don't want to be wearing a brand which knows all to well what they are doing just so people think they are Louboutin's and they aren't.
Here is the real red sole diva:
