A communication representative of designer Linh San' told the Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper that the designer does not use social media and haven't heard about the accusation of Lior Charch.
People said they look alike but they don't that much," Linh San's representative said. "I think they only look similar in the form.
The designer's representative also confirmed that the dress was an old design.
"We did not have time to prepare a new dress for H'Hen Nie in that event so we used an old design," the representative said.
This is the second time in a week a world's famous designer raised their voice about their products being copied by Vietnamese designers.
