"Bottega is the new Vetements," Diet Prada wrote
People who grew up in the era of landline phones will have no trouble recognising the trademark twisted telephone cable that luxury fashion house Bottega Veneta has now appropriated into a necklace. The coiled necklace retails for a staggering $2,000 on the Italian fashion house's website. That's approximately Rs 1.45 lakh. Bottega Veneta's coiled necklace, crafted in enamelled sterling silver, has raised eyebrows on social media. The necklace first gained attention after a picture of it was shared by Diet Prada -- a popular Instagram page that calls out plagiarism in fashion -- alongside a photo of colourful telephone cables available on eBay for a fraction of the cost - $5. "Bottega is the new Vetements," Diet Prada wrote while sharing the pic which has racked up hundreds of outraged comments on Instagram.More Related News
