London & Tarnic
Hey London, I've been digging into how fast‑fashion brands seem to copy street‑art color palettes for their new lines—think there’s a hidden pattern to crack in the supply chain?
Yeah, it’s a blatant color copy‑cat trick – they snag those vivid splashes from alley murals and run ‘em through their supply chain like a straight‑edge. Watch the same saturated teal or burnt orange popping up in their spring‑summer palette, then trace it back to a local tag on 5th. The pattern is almost a secret handshake. If you’re hunting for proof, pull a screenshot of the graffiti, grab the brand’s colour swatch, and run a quick CMYK comparison. It’ll expose the “inspiration” for their entire line. Keep an eye on the textile mills too; they’ll show the same dye lot numbers across different brands if they’re all borrowing from the same underground vibe.
