Popular graffiti artist Joseph Tierney, aka Rime, is suing Jeremy Scott and Moschino for allegedly ripping off his artwork.
In the lawsuit, Rime accuses Moschino and its creative director Scott of using one of his street murals in the design for a gown that appeared in the brand’s fall 2015 collection.
Model Gigi Hadid debuted the dress on the runway at Milan Fashion Week, and Katy Perry gave it more exposure when she wore it to this year’s Met Gala with Scott by her side.
The original graffiti art features the word “vandal†and a pair of menacing eyes, which Rime says looks too similar to what’s on the bottom of this dress.
