People are not having it with Kylie’s new merch in The Kylie Jenner Shop.
She sells items like a “Thick!” sports set, bomber jackets with her signature lip logo and even a Hidden Hills duffle bag. But her second pop-up shop opened in NYC this week and people quickly realized of her newest items – her flame sweats – are copied from the indie store Cake Asia. See for yourself:
Pretty similar, huh?
The youngest Kardashian-Jenner even got the same model, rapper Offset, to pose in both outfits. AND she seems to have blocked Instagram users from being able to comment @cake_asia on her account. When you try to tag the store, you get a “Comment Blocked” notification. Seems awfully fishy, Kylie.
People on Twitter were pretty salty about Kylie ripping off a smaller brand.

I see how Kylie copied that cake asia page, but then I feel like people have done flames on the sleeve before that too.

Regardless, people don’t seem to care enough about Kylie the copycat to ~not~ buy her merch. In fact, her flame sweats are already sold out. I can’t wait to see what clothes Kylie releases in the future, but let’s just hope they’re actually original.
