  • If he didn't give credit, and he is claiming that he came up with the design of the dress himself, he's a liar and a thief. If he had used the Ethiopian traditional dress as inspiration for a altered version, then he would deserve credit. This dress literally looks like the ones my family buy from the market when they go to Ethiopia -- same length, design, everything.

  • that's the thing with culture.... it spreads.. and beauty prevails always... if something is beautiful others will be drawn to it. If I like an Indian Saree, I'll wear it.. am I Indian, no. That is life.... can anyone offer up what he should do... like DONATE money towards famine or the artisans of Ethiopia?

  • He did steal the Ethiopian clothes.in my book he is a theif.

  • Why in the would someone do something like this.

    He definitely copied the designs from Traditional Ethiopian clothes. As a designer he should be ashamed of himself.

  • bull shitt motha fuckerrrrr

  • You fuckin ass you know good and well that those dresses look exactly the same as the ethiopian traditional clothing.why the fuck are u takin credit for it? like really ur dumb piece of shit ass is supposed to be a designer, a creater..not a fucked up cheater or theif. Let me find you, i will get the ethiopian lions on your fuked up confused mental ass... :)

  • all you white people claiming he incorporated the design look up traditional ethiopian clothes and compare some of his design to them .... THEFT not inspiration or incorporation

  • I forgot to mention, but some people are watching this video because of the imitation scandal, not because he is famous. In fact I was not aware of him as a designer until this scandal.

  • With all due respect you your opinion, I am from Ethiopia and his "incorporated dress" looks exactly like the traditional dress. The only difference between his dress and the original is the length. Inspiration means making an entirely new dress with hints of the original not make an imitation. Regardless if he is a world-renowned designer, other world-renown designers have copied other peoples design, it is not uncommon.

  • A timeless Ethiopian Dress presented as a creation of an impostor. What a nonsense staff is being posted here. Who said, a world-renowned designer is exempt from the temptation to steal . Anyways what if we dub him as a world renowned fashion plagiarist; a celebrity of theft and accomplished fraudster.
