"We did it 1st baby," said LisaRaye as she accused Kylie of duplicating her style.

Imitation is the highest form of flattery, or so they say, and LisaRaye McCoy is claiming Kylie Jenner copied her look. Jenner recently made a show-stopping appearance at the Schiaparelli runway show for Paris Fashion Week. The mogul wore Schiaparelli gown complete with a faux fur lion's head—a look that was also featured in the show.

Jenner captured the attention of the world as her appearances often do. McCoy also acknowledged the display while also paying homage to a similar style she previously showcased at an event.

Although Jenner's attire was criticized, PETA came forward to express their support of the reality star's faux fur gown. They have often called out the Kardashian-Jenners for wearing real fur, but this time, they had nothing but praise.

“These fabulously innovative three-dimensional animal heads show that where there’s a will, there’s a way," the company wrote. "We encourage everyone to stick with 100% cruelty-free designs that showcase human ingenuity and prevent animal suffering.”
