Billie Eilish's clothing line has been pulled after designer admits plagiarism
Billie Eilish's new fashion line with Siberia Hills has been cancelled after a designer admitted plagiarising another artist's work.
The new Billie Eilish collection by Siberia Hills launched last week.
Upon arrival, fans noted that one of the t-shirt and hoodie designs used some anime artwork that's very similar to Makoto Kurokawa's previous work.
