Designer Karen Walker defends brand against social media criticism


Fashion designer Karen Walker is standing by the origins of her iconic Runaway Girl branding, after one of her social media critics claimed it was “eerily similar” to an American artist’s designs.
While the pointed questions about Walker s design prompted a number of social media posts amplifying the question about its similarity, a specialist trademark lawyer has called the criticism a “storm in a teacup”.
Karen Walker created the Runaway Girl design of a marching girl holding a bindle in 2001.
But in a Twitter post, Pebbles Hooper – the daughter of fashion designers Denise L’Estrange Corbet and Francis Hooper, and a past critic of Walker – claimed Walker’ s design was similar to Kara Walker’s artwork Untitled (Girl with Bucket) created in 1998, which showed a girl marching in oversized boots while carrying a banner towards a bucket. Hooper has been involved in high-profile disputes with Walker in the past. ....

Kiwi fashion designer Karen Walker accused of copying an American artist's work


A Kiwi fashion designer accused of copying an American artist s work for one of its iconic design has hit back to claim she had never heard of the woman.
Karen Walker launched Runaway Girl brand in 2001, which features jewellery and clothing with a logo of a marching girl holding a bindle over her shoulder. 
The products shipped worldwide, which include rings, necklaces and shirts, range from $22 to more than $1700, contribute to Ms Walker s multi million-dollar net worth. 
But the notable design has come under fire after New Zealand socialite Pebbles Hooper pointed out the famous logo was eerily similar to Kara Walker s artwork created three years earlier.  ....
