Headline-grabbing examples of questionable borrowing abound: In January, fashion house Comme des Garçons was lambasted for sending predominantly white models down the runway in cornrow wigs, while last October, country singer Kacey Musgraves received online backlash when she posted sexy photos of herself wearing a traditional Vietnamese ao dai dress on Instagram. And just last week, Kim Kardashian was once again accused of appropriating black women’s hairstyles by wearing braids at Paris Fashion Week.
