“Counterfeit Culture”, from Highsnobiety.

Dear Shaded Viewers,

I found this video by Highsnobiety  and thought you might have missed it, also good piece on the topic of ‘counterfeit culture’ on  BOF today.

“In recent years, Korea has emerged as one of the world’s fastest-growing fashion markets. Koreans are obsessed with fashion, and the country produces scores of talented designers, many of whom are now breaking out onto the global stage.

Beneath the surface, though, there’s an insane market for counterfeit streetwear. Of course, you can find fake clothing all over the globe, but there’s places in Seoul that are selling convincing knock-offs of hyped brands like Raf Simons, Off-White, Balenciaga and Fear Of God.” by Highsnobiety .
