The 'Life of Kylie' star previously has worn some items from PluggedNYC and allegedly was the first one to receive the camo set of the brand after placing an order a few months ago.

AceShowbiz - PluggedNYC, an independent clothing brand based on New York, accused Kylie Jenner of stealing its designs for Kylie's latest camouflage collection. Once Kylie launched her collection of the camouflage gear on Thursday, June 8, people were quick to point the eerie and strong resemblance it had to the indie brand's.

After "hundreds" of people started tagging her and her brands when Kylie announced her camo line, Tizita Balemlay, the founder of PluggedNYC, called out the "Life of Kylie" star on Instagram. Tizita shared a side-by-side comparison of PluggedNYC's camo designs and Kylie's designs. "When you really Pablo... I am the influence *drops mic. Copy & Paste down to the shoes I used on my models. The kardashains will take your n***a & brand I stamp lmfaooo #WeAreTheCulture," she captioned the image.

Speaking to BuzzFeed, Tizita weighed in on the issue. "At the end of the day money equals power and the Kardashians have that power. This is a prime example," Tizita said. She added, "I don't have the buzz she does or the money for billboards."

It's not that Kylie is not aware of the brand. In fact, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star has worn items from PluggedNYC before. Tizita revealed that she sent Kylie knit and camo items from her line after Kylie's stylist reached out a few months back. Tizita said she was "so excited" when Kylie's stylist reached out to collaborate. Kylie was the first person to receive PluggedNYC's camo set.

A Twitter user screenshot the e-mail receipts, which Tizita shared on Instagram Story, when Kylie's stylist ordered the items from PluggedNYC. The star was allegedly "loving" the items and even asked for a customized one.

The accusation comes after her sister Khloe Kardashian and her Good American clothing line were accused of blatantly knocking off a number of designer Destiney Bleu's bedazzled bodysuit designs. Good American responded to the allegations by sending Destiney a cease and desist letter.
