Not cool Urban Outfitters, not cool.
One of my lovely customers sent me a message today with this link.
And here is my United/World of Love line:
My heart sank a little bit. The World/United States of Love line that I created is one of the reasons that I was able to quit my full-time job. They even stole the item name as well as some of my copy.
I’m very disappointed in Urban Outfitters. I know they have stolen designs from plenty of other artists. I understand that they are a business, but it’s not cool to completely rip off an independent designer’s work.
I’ll no longer be shopping at any of their stores [they also own Free People & Anthropologie], and I’m going to do my best from here on out to support independent designers & artists.
Please feel free to pass this link on. I really appreciate all the support & love I’ve received today.
xo,
Stevie

Richard Wagner - “Liebestod” from Tristan und Isolde
I really wish I knew who sang on this. Pretty frakking amazing.
ZOMG Wagner! Speechless. If you figure out the soprano, please let me know…
