Adventures in Copyrights: Alice Hearts Anna

anna and alice.jpg Still wishing you bought that Anna Sui dress from Spring '07?


There's still hope, sort of:

It basically resurfaced on the Temperley runway yesterday, with a slightly toned-down shape and a repeat of the cross-front, stripes, and colors that everyone loved back in September of '06, when the dress originally debuted on Coco Rocha.

Karlie Kloss rocks the new version at right; it won't be on sale until August, but we expect it'll cost around $750 - more expensive than the Anna Sui version, but it does come with pockets.

^^Not if you are blind they aren't!

My god this is so embarrassing,and prooves my belief that Temperley is just a boring designer without any original idea in her bone!

When does imitation stop being a sincere form of flattery or 'homage' and become a blatant rip-off? Just asking.

Reminds me of Gwen on the Sweet Escape.

There's a forever 21 version from spring 07, if you can find it. Here's what it looks like..

It's more of a tunic then a dress though.
