I get the feeling that Topshop (once again) has been inspired by big design names when creating their clothes. I really feel sorry for the designers when their hard work gets copied and sold for nothing. Topshop’s rip-off hits stores even before the designers does. It’s as simple as this: Topshop have ten collections coming out every year and rtw-designers only twice a year. Meaning when the designers show their new collection on the catwalk, high-street chains like Topshop copy the dress in no time and have it out in store in no time. The designers collection come out in stores about 6 months after showed on the catwalk during FW and by then, everyone’s already seen it on gals on the street so many times you can’t bare to see it again. A real pity for the designer.
I can kind of guess where Topshop got the inspiration for this dress (not that I like it at all, but anyway):
Louis Vuitton ready-to-wear fall 2009 collection. Looks familiar huh?
