In A Hit Dog Will Holla News…
Kim Kardashian took to the streets of Twitter on Tuesday to share her frustrations with fashion companies who rip designs from her husband and designer friends and create knockoffs with the speed of lightning.
Peep her tweets below.
It’s devastating to see these fashion companies rip off designs that have taken the blood, sweat and tears of true designers who have put their all into their own original ideas.

I’ve watched these companies profit off my husband’s work for years and now that it’s also affecting designers who have been so generous to give me access to their beautiful works, I can no longer sit silent.

Only two days ago, I was privileged enough to wear a one-of-a-kind vintage Mugler dress and in less than 24 hours it was knocked off and thrown up on a site – but it's not for sale. You have to sign up for a waitlist because the dress hasn’t even been made to sell yet.

So, as always, don’t believe everything you read and see online. I don’t have any relationships with these sites. I’m not leaking my looks to anyone, and I don’t support what these companies are doing.

They also took to social media to respond to Kim’s tweets with the following statement:
