Byron Bay influencer and reality television star accuses Kylie Jenner of ... trends now
A Byron Bay influencer and fashion designer has accused Kylie Jenner of stealing designs from her clothing line for her new fashion company Khy.
Jessica Johansen-Bell, who starred in the Netflix series Byron Baes in 2022, claimed the American socialite, 26, 'ripped off' designs she released four years ago.
The 28-year-old, who founded the brand Johansen when she was 19, made the accusations in a TikTok video on Friday, which Kylie's team have since denied.
Jessica filmed the video wearing one of the twist sleeve white frocks she designed in 2020 and now claims was copied by Kylie.
She began the clip by saying: 'Guys, am I tripping, or did Kylie Jenner just rip off my entire collection? I have been dwelling on this for days.'

Jessica continued: 'We launched a collection so similar to the collection she launched, but we launched ours three or four years ago.
'It's been our signature range ever since.'
The Lismore-born reality star went on to say she's 'been getting so many DMs from customers, friends and family' asking if she had collaborated with Kylie.

'We've dressed Kylie before, so I thought it was old stuff,' Jessica explained, but added she was 'shocked' when she looked further into Kylie's designs.
Jessica went on to include a slide show of photos comparing her dresses to the dresses Kylie released in her fourth drop last week.
The main similarity between the garments appears to be the twisted sleeves featured on most items, which creates a similar silhouette.
