Around this time last year, Shia Douglas -- Ashanit's younger sister who launched clothing line Dymes Only in 2014 -- suggested that a two-piece velvet outfit would soon be released. 

Fast-forward one year later and Cardi B released a similar piece as a collaboration with Fashion Nova.

Douglas called out both Cardi and the retailer on Instagram.

"Peep how the universe works.. I was planning to put this pic up as a tbt today bc I’m tired of it I posted it last year and as a creative, things get old and annoying fast.

"And I peeped people, certain designers I’ve worked with even! try to run with the design and make it their own."

Cardi B responded on the post: "I've said plenty of times that my line was inspired by many of my favorite designers! Including this one!"
