Designer getting ripped off?
Looks like it to me.
Oregon Woman Accuses Target of Using Her Graphic on Its T-Shirt - ABC News
An Oregon clothing designer was shocked to find a tank top at Target that she said looked nearly identical to a shirt sold on her online retail store.
Melissa Lay, who lives outside Portland, started her clothing shop last year so she could work from home to be with her children. Success was immediate, she said, thanks to one design in particular: her black and white shirt that had the phrase "#Merica" on it and a white U.S. flag.
But earlier this month, Lay said, her friend sent her a picture of what the friend thought was a similar shirt at a local Target, thinking Lay had sold her designs to the country?s second-largest discount retailer.
