PR Lessons in Paperchase
Hidden Eloise: claims that Paperchase copied this design.
Claire Thompson, Freelance PR consultant, Waves PR
I have long loved Paperchase. Their shops have a degree of solidity and artiness that Rymans just can’t rival. So, on the basis that they were a premium supplier, and therefore paying artists and suppliers decent wages, it’s always felt good shopping there. I’m sure that I’m not alone in feeling betrayed by the current debacle that will doubtless spill into the wider media arena than the Twittersphere where it began. (Actually, as I write, Channel 4 is interviewing.)
The artist behind HidenSeek/Hidden Eloise claims that Paperchase is using a character that she designed, and certainly the evidence she presents seems very compelling.
