The drama follows James Charles, practically wherever he or she goes. The most recent is Ethan Klein’s claims that James’s new hoodie designs are “exactly” like his wife’s Teddy Fresh shirts, and that Twitter is already discussing. James Charles was accused of plagiarism after Ethan Klein said his merchandise is very similar to his wife, Hela’s Teddy Fresh streak. However, James didn’t take it on Twitter and answered rudely but debate continues over whether or not James copied the designs. The make-up artist’s “sisters wear” line consists of colorful hoodies and nightwear pieces. James’ latest hoodie line that mainly has block hoodies in pastel color with its “Sisters” logo at the front resembles the Hila range, however, many say it’s also common for brands to use pastel blocks. However, Ethan (who was said to have had DM James Charles the day before) still chooses to contact him on Twitter.
Ethan Klein tweet:
I am giving you permission to share our pimp. She told me you would sell it anyway. She also admitted the similarity was no coincidence. I decided to keep this private, but found your response hostile and dismissive. https://t.co/TGakaynFyw

Comparison
I know we didn’t invent color blocking, but I’m having a hard time getting to grips with the new James Charles Merch, it’s the exact same design as Hella. Coupled with the fact that his audience is so huge, many people will assume that he designed it and start accusing us of plagiarism. What do you think? pic.twitter.com/sKdTlzIcAx

Ethan tweeted along with side-by-side photos of Hila Teddy Fresh merch and James “I know we didn’t invent color blocking, but I’m having a hard time dealing with James Charles’s new team, it’s the same exact design for Hila” in conjunction with the fact that his audience is so huge, Lots of people will assume he designed it and start accusing us of plagiarism. What do you think? He further said: “It could all be quite a cosmic coincidence but he used very similar colors here as well, at least move it a little bit. “
James then publicly replied to Ethan, saying, “When you DM me the message yesterday, I sent you the original photo that inspired my group, and he made it clear that I had never seen your branding, but you also asked what you wanted me to do… He didn’t reply. Last year, I pledged to keep conversations private, find solutions, not drama. If you want to continue our conversation and find a solution, my direct messages are still open! ”
Fans split, while some defended James Charles and some accused him of stealing the designs. Check out the tweets calling for James Charles to plagiarize:

Some even supported James Charles. Check out the tweet:
I am not a big fan of James but this design is not so original in the colors. Various brands have been making it with their logos for years. If you’ve already done it before and you’re still tweeting this that’s too immature at least you have the balls to tag it lol. pic.twitter.com/YuBFg9QGPw

Hela also joined the conversation when she tweeted a picture of the design process, saying, “I think I might also share some behind the scenes. This is my first sketch of the color hoodie from 2017 before we had a logo for TF, and in the other photo is the pink one, usually. What is this is the way I work with color palettes. ” The drama continues!
