Being caught wearing a counterfeit by the original designer usually results in private apologies when the wearer is famous and the designer is not. However, when an unknown person wears a counterfeit and the original designer is renowned, public notices in newspapers are quite common.
Famous fashion designers hold a much higher status in the industry than minor celebrities. It's not unusual for them to have studios and private jets, flying to and fro just to attend to a client's single garment.
This time, Shen Li knew An Yan had offended a super-master designer and expected her to make a public apology, but she hadn't anticipated An Yan would go to such lengths. This apology wasn't just in the print media; there was also a public video online.
With a tone of repentance, An Yan directly said, "If I can't wear genuine articles, I'd rather not wear any clothes at all."
