Sonja By Sonja Morgan Is Actually Overstock From Target

July 20, 2018 by tamaratattles 45 Comments

Blue ruffled dress on https://sonjabysonjamorgan.com/collections/plus-size

UPDATED!  Sonja has taken down a TON of her plus sized options leaving less than ten. The Target dress is gone as are many of her other dresses.  AND the models faces on the remaining ones are cut off. Interesting. 

The word on the street is that Ramona made a lot of money reselling overstocked items from one store, say Macy’s to another store, like TJMaxx. It looks like that is what Sonja is trying to do. Only bless her heart, Sonja always gets it a little wrong. This time it is worse than the time she was going to repackage toaster ovens with her name on it.

It appears she bought some Target overstock and is now reselling it as Sonja By Sonja Morgan. I wonder if she is sewing in some sort of Sonja tags to replace the Target brand? 

Target dress https://www.target.com/p/women-s-plus-size-ruffle-wrap-dress-who-what-wear-153-blue-stripe/-/A-52303349

Someone told me about this on Twitter and I went to Target to see if I could find the dress to verify and it was not there. However, that is because it is sold out in my area.  The person who tweeted me sent me a link to the dress that wasn’t coming up for me. Everything about the dress is exactly the same except the price. At Sonja’s site it is $74.95, at Target it is $39.99.

Oh, Sonja. This is dumber than the Nigerian soccer team thing. But not quite as dumb as claiming that Madonna was at your “fashion shoe.”

Now women find me the real maker of those shoes. I like the shoes.

    I do believe I tried that on (at Target). It was a lot of dress! I guess that explains why Ramona always had those marks and tags on the soles of her shoes.

    She will probably say that her “business partners” did something she didn’t know about.

    Her business ideas aren’t bad… just not always well executed. She should do a *insert* brand X Sonja Morgan type line instead of selling cast offs. Though she could have easily gone to the same wholesalers that Target uses. If it sells, good on her.

    Those interns are apparently being university educated yet not one said, “what about reverse image search, Lady Morgan? Perhaps we should reshoot the dresses.”?

    I hope they’re not studying law, business or marketing.

    I had to google! I found both sites Target and Sonja’s. Not only is it the same dress, but same model, same shoes, same poses. Who knew Sonja had such mad cut and paste skills!!

    This is a lawsuit waiting to happen. If not by Target, but by the one woman who actually would buy clothing from Sonja.

    Is it even legal to do that? Buy overstock at one price and then mark it up for resale? I know nothing about business so I wasnt sure. But I suppose it happens all the time. We have quite a few Ross, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls in the area and I suppose that’s what they do!

      Yeah that’s totally legal. What ISN’T legal and going to get her in a lot of trouble is reusing the photos. She’s going to get her ass handed to her in legal problems from the photographer, target the model’s agency. That’s going to be brutal.

    I had noticed that her website had a lot more products lately and thought she had partnered with someone new. This isn’t a terrible idea but badly executed. I don’t think you can legally take photos from another retailer and use them as your own.

    So far two people have called her out on Instagram, but this needs to be announced to ALL.

    She is such a fraud and her character of stealing other people’s work for her own personal gain is just unethical, gross and tacky.

        I thought I saw a response by Ms. Morgan herself that claimed she had the distributor at Traget but didn’t get the volume discount so she had to stop selling it because she couldn’t afford to anymore. The whole thing is interesting and sad at the same time.

    Just to be clear. Sonja’s ‘businesses’ are just her putting her name to other people’s ‘ideas’. That is it!

    So the collections are “curated” by Sonja. I am okay with this actually. What I am NOT AT ALL good with is the shipping info page dammit. Looks like everything except the “signature” collection, whatever that is is shipped vis “e-packet” from Hong Kong or China. (think the saying “slow boat from China-yup it takes FOREVER).

    Anywho, as an Amazon and Ebay seller I HATE Epacket because even though it is subsidized by the US Post Office, if I as a US seller want to ship via US Mail to Hong Kong or China, I pay starting at 23.00 the e-rate for e-packets is 5.95.

    I have rage-tweeted this to our Prezzy and others but mo one curs I guess?

    Also mentioned in the “about us” section on sonja by sonja morgan dot u know what, a POP-UP SHOP?? Hmmmmm? Could THAT be TT’s blind from the other day?

    What Ramona did was ethical and smart and people do it all the time. Kim K made money that way with designer items Daddy got for her. Slapping your name on another’s product is wrong. CURATING is another story; isn’t that how Tory Burch (not my fave) started. Doubling the price — caveat emptor. The photos … I guess if they belong to the producer it would be kosher to use them. But if Target paid fo the shots … WATCH OUT LA MORGAN. I used to work for a printer and Target provided its own “Target Red” ink. That’s how particular they are. Not just it’s own ink, a whole separate pass through the whole (traditional) print process. Target has the $$$$ to go after her.

        Maybe not sue her for money, but a cease and desist order come from target or whomever actually owns the photos if she didn’t pay to use them. I would think. Idk I’m not a lawyer I just like to sound smart in my comments 😉

    Yep it looks like a standard drop-shipping program. I hope she did not overpay because you can get one for like 400.

    So if you buy something like swimwear, China pays $5.25 or so to ship it to you courtesy of the US Postal Service–(and I did mention it can take a very long time to arrive?)…IF you want to return it, Sonja’s site says that YOU must pay the shipping for that but The US Postal Service is not as generous with Americans and it could cost you a hundred dollars or more to return an order,

    Isn’t this what Ramona’s company was based on from the beginning? Selling overstock to TJ Maxx? Sounds like Sonja just copied her business model in a half assed way.
    Ramona hasn’t talked about this business in years, maybe she sold it.

    Oh Sonja, I like you tremendously but honey NO! Y’all can we have a come to Jesus meeting for Sonja and a prayer circle wouldn’t hurt. Some of the women on these shows make my brain bleed, with all the exposure and resources available to them why would Sonja do this to herself?! Le sigh.

    It is how Ramona makes her main money…only she resells huge overstock inventory to actual stores and is not operating an online shady apparel site. Sonja might have been able to almost pull it off if she did not insist on sticking her actual name on everything and doing such a huge mark up. To take inventory from an upscale at a huge discount, relabel it with a slight mark up is common to do, but Sonja did it bass ackwards of buying overstock from a discount store, putting her name on it, and more than doubling the price, plus doing it all online and using stock from the discount site. Poor Sonja…she makes my head hurt.
