Did these Asians really got appropriated?

TikTokers accuse fashion brands of appropriating South Asian culture
Some say a new Reformation blouse and skirt set looks a lot like a 2000s-Bollywood-era lehenga. Others are claiming that an Oh Polly gown resembles a sharara, another popular South Asian outfit. And some say that H&M’s “long camisole” and trouser set for spring sure looks a lot like a shalwar kameez, a tunic paired with trousers.

The recent release of these designs has revived the online conversation about cultural appropriation, as many South Asian influencers and TikTok users say Western brands have introduced clothing that they feel too closely resembles the garments their community has worn for centuries - without acknowledging their design inspiration.
