Fashion website poses as original idea, not the case. Your Life, Your Style, SUCKS!

New York, New York, July 7, 2009- At first glance, Glam.com appears to be an impressive website with links to news on fashion, entertainment, luxury living and more. Articles, blogs, pictures and videos make up the website that seems a hub of fashion and entertainment. Yet the idea for the initial website was demoed and implemented with an idea originated by Kimberly Stone, founder and CEO of POSHGLAM.com.

The similarity was no accident; in fact, Glam.com is a stolen business model. Though Glam.com founder Samir Arora launched Sep. 19th 2005, Stone had purchased the rights to POSHGLAM.com on May 16, 2005 far before Arora even owned the rights to GLAM.com.

This initial transfer of ideas was not the end for Glam.com. The site compiles insights and tidbits from other fashion insiders and websites, and then presents them as its own. These underhanded actions are exploitations of the fashion industry and its virtual realms, from blogs to bargain buys. Now, rather than a fashion Mecca, this website has been exposed a fashion fraud.
