Alexander Wang “drew inspiration” from our paper bag to launch his new handbag. We called him out and we served it as fast as we serve our food. On the same day, we had posted our parody on @McDonaldsksa and we tagged him in front of all his followers: @Alexanderwang, we did it first. Our post trended upon fashion influencers and outlets, in Saudi and around the world. Wang went on to collaborate with McDonald’s to launch a collection called I’m Wangin’ it. With one parody post, McDonald’s Saudi Arabia had turned into a fashion movement.
