Zara is the main brand of the Inditex group known for trendy affordable fashion, the world’s largest apparel retailer, however, the brand has been ripping off brands high and low.

As you can see above Zara has taken a huge inspiration from Kanye West’s shoes. For example, Yeezy is a big inspiration for Zara using their pastel and earthy color pallets.

Unfortunately, Yeezy’s weren’t the only brand that has been ripped off by Zara. Another big brand that has also been affected by this is Balenciaga. Zara has copied $795 Balenciaga sneakers!
