Migliukee...Copyright Issue?

UPDATE: There must be some truth to the rumors that I posted about below as Stardoll has now removed the clothes from the Migliukee Shop!!!
Thanks Vmkchick123 for the tip!
ORIGINAL POST:
Wow..all over stardoll blogs, posts are cropping up that may potentially indicate that the Migliukee is a fraud.

According to a post on Stardoll's Top Designers, the designs actually belong to Katie Rodgers and you can see them on a blog called Paper Fashion!!! Click HERE to visit it! So it seems that Migliukee has possibly stolen the designs from this site and acted like they were her own!

Further information was on Avant-Garde Gossip when Alice sent Katie an e-mail. See below.
Wouldn't you think that Stardoll would have made sure this person was the owner of these designs? Idk if this is absolutely true, but it seems like it could be. What do you think?

  1. You know, this whole Migliukee thing is very suspicious; I mean, she`s only 12 years old..

  7. Omg, That`s Really Bad!
    But Why Didn`t Stardoll Choose To Look For Those Designs Before Releasing Them? :S
    I Always Knew It Was To Good To Be True.

  8. THANK YOU so much for looking out for me everyone!! These designs were unfortunately stolen from my website and all my original designs. It's a shame people have the guts to do this. I will get to the bottom of it!!!

    Thanks again for letting me know- and letting everyone know the truth!!

  9. That is just awful what Migliukee did! She copied and stole her drawings and hopefully the real talented artist will sue her.

    &+ Stardoll should have checked the whole thing out and confirmed it before just making into pixelated clothes.

  11. Migliukee Girl Has To Of Stolen The Designs.

  12. OMG, I can't believe Migliukee would do that...I mean she maybe IS 12 years, and a 12 year old wouldn't possibly bother to do something like that ?

    Anyway, I'm glad that Katie knows whats been going on...its not fair if your work is stolen like that!

  16. i think it's unfair that she stole this designs,if it's true?

  17. all the clothes are gone! and theres no way a 12 yr old can draw like that!! stardoll should really make sure what theyre doing before they make some one famous for fake work

    ReplyDelete
  18. Does this means that you are going to cancel the comp? There is no way we can buy the dresses!
    Anyway, the person who draw these clothes is very very talented.

  19. Wooow..=/
    It was soo weird that she was only 12 and had Such amazing scketches and everything..=/

    ReplyDelete
  20. I agree with _funnyprincess_
    the person who draw it is very very talented...
    But it`s so unfair that this girl stole that from Katie..
    But Clothes was very cute..and I am sad they move the store....

  21. My God, I knew it was too good to be true... she is just 12!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Check out her account:
    You can hate me, but I am realy sorry. And I'm not proud of my self.
    I don't know if its her, because her account got deleted.

    ReplyDelete
  23. How old is the real desinger? I don't think it says on her site. Man if someone stole my work, I'd be so piss. I think stardoll should at least apologize and the girl for copying her art. Maybe a reimbursement!

    ReplyDelete
  24. yup stardoll took away the shop, i thought the designs were amazing and the true artist should get the recognition.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Well you can totally see that she copyed it because they were on katie's site sence april

    ReplyDelete
  26. Wow, but still shouldn't the artist have copyrighted her work or at least watermark them some how? I was looking for the copyright stamp on her blog, but didn't see any. That's why you should always copyright images, because many people like to steal things as their own.

  27. This is very bad thing :( And kind of sad too.

    Katie is so talented artist, amazing designs!
    I hope this ends well. It would be great if Stardoll could have the permission to use the collection, everyone loved it. :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. It's a really bad thing and I think Stardoll should ban Migliukee from Stardoll for taking credit for someone else's work!

    and PaperFashion: Amazing Designs! I would so not be able to do them!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I think it's true.
    And I can't understand how someone could do such things! :O
    But I think Stardoll had to check it before just accepting it ..
    I think they'll check more in the future, they learned their lesson!

  30. I hate Migliukee.
    She's Copy - Paster.

  31. Aww, that's a shame, i liked alot of those clothes and was going to buy some, should have been quicker! lol! Hope it all gets sorted soon though!

    ReplyDelete
  32. What a shame!!! :O I don't understand how stardoll could do that... :/

    Oh I really love Katie designs!!!

    ReplyDelete
  33. when i first saw the clothes the first thing that came to mind was I must have seen this somewhere, and thought that it was kinda weird that Migliukee didnt had a homepage or anything in her stardolls presentation i mean anyone that good would post their homepage in his/her's presentation,.
    sad also i didnt purchase anything,. "/

    ReplyDelete
  34. Wow check her page.. Everything in her suite is gone and so is her ss membership and on her (can't remember what its called).. oh yeah presentation! sorry anyway it say's something like " i know what, i did and i am ashamed of it... or something!!! :O her gb is flooded with people bullying her too!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. well this must be true cause the clothes aren't there anymore

    ReplyDelete
  36. This is very shocking, how could stardoll mess up like this? :O
    I really do like the clothing though :)
    I bought shoes yesterday, but they are gone from my suit... anyone else have the same problem?

    ReplyDelete
  37. OMG!!! - Well it was always suspicious from the start - now we know. I didn't get any of the clothes though :(

    ReplyDelete
  38. Whoa, that's so weird. I thought that Migliukee was genuinely talented. I guess not.
    I really loved the designs. Stardoll can be so freaking stupid sometimes.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Rachii - that's what I thought right from the beginning :o When I saw the store, and then that they're made by stardoll user I checked her suite to be sure, that she isn't stardoll herself, like just became a member and 534658754 starpoints and stuff :D Also I was surprised when I saw her age...
    (and I'm not just telling it, because she's a fraud, I really thought that in the beginning).
    But yes, it's such shame :(
    Poor Katie, I like YOUR designs (lllll)
    I would sue stardoll :D:D

    ReplyDelete
  40. Do you know if they will release them again?
    They will be so rare now, am I correct??

    ReplyDelete
  41. I recently went to Katie's website, and low and behold, there are the "Migliukee" designs. I design and make cloths myself and if this ever happened to me i would be outraged! How can someone do something like this.
