Are you familiar with the term cultural appropriation? Simply put, it's an inappropriate use of elements of one culture by another one (typically a more dominant one). If Prada uses elements of a Chinese minority tribe's culture in their new fashion line without acknowledging it, is that ok? What if they do acknowledge it? Lately, in the fashion industry, cultural appropriation has become a thing. Is it ok for fashion brands to take elements from different countries and cultures? Is this stealing? what if an American girl wants to wear a qipao? Or a Native American headdress? If people are offended by this, should they be appeased?_x000D_

你熟悉文化挪用一词吗? 简而言之,这是另一种文化(通常是更占主导地位的文化)对一种文化元素的不当使用。 如果 Prada 在他们的新时装系列中使用了中国少数民族部落文化的元素而不承认,这可以吗? 如果他们真的承认了怎么办? 最近,在时尚界,文化挪用已经成为一件大事。 时尚品牌可以采用来自不同国家和文化的元素吗? 这是偷? 如果一个美国女孩想穿旗袍怎么办? 还是美国原住民的头饰? 如果人们因此受到冒犯,他们应该被安抚吗?_x000D_
