My Silence, Was Your Comfort.

At what point do we draw the line between; influence & copying?

and no doubt she's robbed/borrowed/was influenced from some 1930's/40's Bauhaus design or some USSR propergander poster......as Peter Saville said you're a true genius if you can get away with copying someone else's work!!!! ..and he has and probably still does!

No hate on supreme here, just good to show people origins.

The font and design is clean and simple. The words are witty and sometimes harsh.

Fits Supreme very well.

Long live Futura Italic Bold! and Big up Barbera Kruger.

Call it inspiration or copying or whatever but everything in fashion has been inspired by something previous.

Bape - Planet of the apes
Bapesta - Air Force One

Samurai and practically every Japanese denim brand out - Levis

Lee - Levis

the list could go on...

Well if saying Supreme sucks makes me a hater, then I guess that's what I am and if saying something sucks makes me a hater, than maybe you should make sure you're not a sensitive pole-hugger. In conclusion, I just haven't seen anything from Supreme that's made me say, "Wow, that's pretty hot". I'm not surprised in the least that their work is "borrowed".
