Mango’s Louis Vuitton copycats are up for sale

Mango’s geometric jacquard sweater: £34,99

Fast-fashion retailers like Mango base part of their strategy on translating luxury brands designs for the masses = at rock-bottom prices (we can call that the affordable-luxury paradox). They go fast, they have a great sense of styling and they certainly know how to pick up what they have to pick up from designers like Isabel Marant, Alexander Wang, Hedi Slimane or Riccardo Tisci. Take a stroll through the aisles of any Primark, H&M or Zara and you’ll find pieces that look a lot like Chloé mixed with Céline or Proenza Schouler. Mango is for sure after Ghesquière for that matter. How do you feel about all these Louis Vuitton copycats?
