When it comes to ripping off blackness, the Kardashians should trademark their ability to siphon talent and artistry from others, especially when it comes to fashion.

Last week, Khloรฉ Kardashian was accused of buying, and then duplicating, the designs of designer Destiney Bleu. Bleuโs bedazzled designs have been seen on everyone from Beyoncรฉ to Jamie Foxx.
And now, following in her sisterโs footsteps, Kylie Jenner has been accused of the same thing by another black designer.
Plugged NYC is a fashion brand based in New York City and created by Tizita Balemlay. And just like Bleuโs designs, Balemlayโs clothes have made the celebrity rounds, having been worn by folks like Rihanna, Keke Palmer and Kehlani. And Kylie, just like her older sister Khloรฉ, also ordered a ton of Plugged products before allegedly ripping off the designs:
Balemlay posted email correspondence with Jennerโs rep about the orders that were placed and also used her Instagram account to show the similarities:
Jenner has not responded to the copycat claims, but if sheโs anything like her sister, sheโll probably send Balemlay a cease-and-desist letter, too.
