-Earlier this year, model and muse to Alexander Wang Erin Wasson launched her own jewelry line called Low Luv. The pieces consist of chains that wrap around the body and cost upwards of $1,000. Wang thought they were so cool, he even used them in his fall '08 runway show in February, right before Wasson's line launched. However jewelry designer Bliss Lau, who has been making similar body chains since 2007, claims Wasson's line is a ripoff of her Bliss line. According to Fashionista, Lau alledges that the pieces worn at Wang's show were Bliss pieces that Wasson merely recast. Lau claims that Wasson actually wore an original Bliss piece in the Nylon magazine article about her Low Luv line. And — if Lau's allegations are true — is that the body chains weren't just some of Wang's best accessories, but some of his best inspiration for his fall collection.
