New York auction house is also fake(SEDITIONARIES DESTROY,Shirts,Destroy,Seditionaries)

Fashion Week in New York's most looking forward to a banquet, drinking revelers into a Christie's auction house in the 229 precious items were shipped to London Fashion October 30 to participate in the auction to see faster. These items include antique clothing store in New York alternative Resurrection owner Mark Haddawy and Katy Rodriguez all private collections, with Christie's in charge of textiles Pat Frost put it, "because these collections from the 30's throughout the last century until now, they represent the 20th century" .
However, although there are unlimited glory, this auction is not without controversy. Allegedly, there are 30 key items from Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren in the King's Road boutiques. They selected from the three along the principal series: Let It Rock, Sex and Seditionaries. Due to McLaren and Westwood dress punk movement be regarded as a symbol of arts and crafts, they have always been a high price, but the question is: McLaren claims that some of the clothing is counterfeit.
McLaren on October 1 in Paris, said in an interview that: "In the Christie's preview, I saw some of my never designed or produced things. There is one black folder. (Christie) are two there is a huge painting of Little Richard cotton T shirt. We have never produced large size clothes. "
However, Christie said: "These objects and without Malcolm McLaren's hand. I did not see him, but it is clear he is here to participate in a preview in New York and saw the exhibition, a mere three or four items of clothing. "
"Punk era record is not entirely a matter of age, once they have doubts about anything, we will overthrow it. Because of the existence of counterfeit goods, everyone very carefully. But you look at the structure of clothing, printing ink and design. We believe that these clothes. "
Resurrection's Mark Haddawy also the authenticity of these costumes affirmed. "I do not know whether Malcolm most qualified to determine which clothes are true; he was only nominally in that fashion shop partner. Vivienne is the designer. Our auction is a 1974 production of Let It Rock raincoats, Its material is very special nylon fine print, I have never seen such clothes were imitation. "
So, how can we identify layman is true piece of clothing? McLaren has provided the following advice: "I have never in the anarchist printing Stalin used. When you (anarchist) T shirt turn over, we often sewing pearl buttons, these buttons do not see from the front hole only in the back there. "
Of course, this argument has a certain irony. British designer Keanan Duffy from small to large frequented by Westwood and McLaren's boutique, he said: "Punk is the status of a rebel, which has now become a kind of clothes to prove, and in Christie's auction sale, which the fact that really very funny. This is the ultimate punk statement. "
