Yep. In 2011 she was sent a cease and desist letter when she copied a design from Derek Lam; and then last year, Aquazurra, an Italian (and much more expensive) designer sued her for copying designs. I've seen the pics of multiple shoes that she stole. They are shockingly close "replicas". She clearly stole the designs, then priced them at half as much as the real thing.
So admirable!!
Katharath, it was Aquarzurra that I was thinking of. The design was clearly copied and I had wondered why Ivanka wasn't being sued for her design. I had purchased a pair of her high heeled boots a few years ago and liked them but now there is no way I would purchase a Trump item.
Here are some side by side pics of Aquazzura and Ivanka's shoes.
