Is VTMNTS A Worse Version Of VETEMENTS? 

That makes it even worse lol. They claim that it’s not supposed to be another Vetements but can’t stay away from referencing it in one way or another

@@FashionRoadman yup, I already thought that new Vetements collections were basically derivatives of Demna's old ones and now, I guess, VTMNTS is a derivate of that - not sure what's even left lol

Yes, it sounds to me the same… very businessy decision too

Very desperate

Ohhhh woaw! Thanks for the insight! Didn't know that all all to be honest.

What did Gosha Do

@@hubbardlaluce3932 google. Over the weekend, a 16-year-old boy alleged that Russian streetwear designer Gosha Rubchinskiy pressured him into sending explicit photos of himself. (2018)

I'm Georgian and you are correct

@@realerthanyourdad_ thanks for reading my comment. Tho i like this channel, i kept eyerolling at the western biased/ignorant terms used. Not going to get political, but seriously...Greece is Balkan too, he may as well called the collection a gyro.

This is factually false.

Yurko himself has accused VTMNTS of copying his work & multiple publications in the Balkans have ran stories on it... are they all publishing 'factually fake' news?

​@@TweezerFetish9 For starters, Balkans =/= Ukraine, Russia and Georgia. No one can claim any sort of rights on a clothing style that is extremely generic not only in Eastern Europe, but worldwide at this point. And who actually pinpoints their references when doing a fashion show? It's supposed to be up for interpretation and debate, unless you want to be an all-out American brand with no sense of mystery whatsoever.

Sorry, my mistake, Eastern European publications, that still doesn't take away from the fact articles have been published on it & Yurko himself has accused them of copying? Yes, a designer can be inspired by something but when the inspiration is practically identical to the end product, that's copying. And brands/designers do give an overview of their inspirations & references in their show notes, the show notes are just distributed to the press & the public very rarely get their hands on them

Thanks ❤️ it’s by Isabel Benenato. I love all the knitwear that she makes. I’ve actually made a video on her work

@@FashionRoadman I’m check it out, thanks🙏🏾. da knitwear is exceptional

I mentioned that he was from Georgia many times in the video. That being said there are many similarities especially within the realm of fashion and culture across the balkan & Slavic regions which influence Georgian culture and fashion which is why Serbia is very relevant.

I’m convinced there are people that hate me so much they are subscribed just so they can dislike every video I make which is so hilarious.

@@FashionRoadman we call those people hate watchers 😂😂

He isn't inspired by slavic or balkan style, he is inspired by what he saw growing up in Soviet Georgia

@@realerthanyourdad_ He was 100% inspired by Balkan and Slavic style just the same way he was heavily inspired by Margiela, Martine Rose, his time in Belgium etc. I don’t know why people seem to forget he lived in Ukraine. Just because I say the aesthetic looks Slavic doesn’t mean he isn’t inspired by Georgia at all which is what confuses me - we’ve seen Vetements collections inspired by the Georgian war, dresses inspired by clothes typically worn by women in Soviet Georgia and silhouettes inspired by orthodox Christian priests in Georgia. However, loads of the prints and general aesthetic of the clothes and the marketing campaigns looked Slavic - you had collections that were inspired by clothes he used to see walking around Antwerp when he was studying there etc. The “Antwerpen” logo is literally a direct copy of the logo on clothes in some random corner shops in Antwerp. What’s this weird assumption that because he was born in Soviet Georgia that’s his only inspiration point when he has spoken about his multiple influences from different countries in countless interviews?

Yes it is

Nice piece, I thought it might be by the other Isabel ... do you like the work of Isabella Stefanelli ?

@@bodincastell1263 thanks and yes I love Stefanneli. I don’t know why but for some reason everytime I think of her work I think of Uma Wang

Yes i can see that . Also in her work it reminds me of early Martin Marg when it was really good and about the fabrics and construction .

Bringing up Balkan & Slavic styles / culture is because it’s a heavy inspiration point of Demna’s designs which probably comes from the fact that the countries like Ukraine, Russia & Turkey literally border Georgia so there is bound to be a crossover. If you study his work you see how heavy his inspiration points from the Balkans are. Even in this comment section someone earlier was talking about how they took heavy inspiration from Ukraine and Turkey for Vetements and didn’t credit it. If we were speaking super technically I don’t think Georgia is part of the Balkan countries or the Slavic countries but Georgia adopts the same cultural traits (orthodox Christianity, similar language, etc)
