B. Makowsky knocking off HH?

[kpdelight]

Hi, HH Hotties! So, maybe I'm just over analyzing things but I was looking at handbags online after seeing a QVC (my guilty pleasure; I love any handbag related presentation) presentation of B. Makowsky and noticed two styles that are very similar to HH classics including the Lorca & Havana Hobo.

Lorca like bag:

Havana Hobo ;like bag:

The bags look nice and are offered in great colors. They just strike me as too similar to HH styles. What do you think?

 

[paelaf]

um, yeah. There is such shameless copying in the accessories industry!

 

[merrygold]

Definite copies, but FUG.

 

[missty4]

wow, just wow

 

[cherubicanh]

OMG! THEY LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME! Down to the tassels and the pockets. I mean, they aren't even variations...exact copies! I hope HH knows about this! SHAME!

 

[lulu3955]

all I can say is WOW! I lost all respect for B. Makowsky

 

[missypoo]

OMG! They are exactly alike. Shame on them

 

[dyannek]

WOW! this is awful ush:

 

[happygirl34]

wow - glad I don't own a B Makowsky. And now I never will. I feel embarrased for them!

The more I compare my HH bags to my other brands, I just have more and more respect and love for the designs, quality, and details. Stay original HH, and I'll remain a loyal customer

So glad I'm not the only that noticed. The Havana like bag at least has a slight yet unfortunate variation with the really small back pocket but the Lorca like bag is an exact copy!

Maybe someone with a QVC account would write a review with a link to the original.

Wowzers, total knockoff. Still not as good as the real thing though, and kinda pricey for a rip-off design.

I can't stand this brand.. they made a bag similar to Rebecca Minkoff Nikki too!
