Forever 21's white hoody is emblazoned with the words "Smart & Pretty" while Emily's design carried the slogan, also the brand's name, "Sporty & Rich".
Speaking to Refinery 29 about her feelings on the alleged knock-off design, Emily explained:
"At first, I didn't really care because my followers and customers know it's wack and they would never support a lamer version of my brand. "But after talking to people, I realized this is a bigger issue, and I should take some sort of legal action against them. Ideally, I'd sue and they'd settle out of court and take down the design. But the fact that publications are shedding light on this issue is good enough for me. They know what they did, and so does everyone else".
