Adventures in Copyright: Taylor Tomasi Hill's Lane Crawford Collection Riffs on Marc by Marc, Commes des Garcons

Moda Operandi Artistic Director Taylor Tomasi Hill obviously loves her some designer duds, and we can't fault her for that. But it looks like she mig

But that's not all: The blue striped blouse with cutout shoulders looks remarkably similar to a Commes des Garcons one the editor wore--and got street style snapped in--back in September 2009, while attending a J. Mendel presentation.

Tsk, tsk, it's too bad because the rest of the collection is super cute. And, as a fashion industry insider, Taylor should have known better!

Take a look at the whole collaboration, which you can purchase now at Lane Crawford (yes, even in the U.S!), below.

First Look: Taylor Tomasi Hill Designs a Mini-Collection for Lane Crawford

Here's some good news: Everyone's favorite street style star and Moda Operandi artistic director Taylor Tomasi Hill has just launched a mini-collection with Hong Kong retailer Lane Crawford, reports backseatstylers.com.

"Something unexpected always adds an element of interest to an outfit.”

Taylor Tomasi Hill Talks Consulting On (Not Designing!) Sigerson Morrison's Fall Collection

Taylor Tomasi Hill (or TTH as she's come to be known) is one of those fashion girls who seems to be doing a million things at once: As the artistic director at Moda Operandi, she is responsible for the shopping site’s editorial content; you probably know her best from looking at any street style blog--where her scarlet hair and standout style make her an easy target; but you might not know that she's also the creative consultant for Sigerson Morrison shoes. Yep, that's a lot of (very stylish) hats. So last evening, at the Bowery Hotel, Sigerson Morrison presented their (vast) fall collection at a party hosted by Tomasi Hill and the Street Peeper’s Phil Oh. And while we overheard TTH tell a fellow editor that she was on a “cleanse day” her enthusiasm for the shoe label overpowered any (probable) faintness she was feeling after a day filled with only juice.

Moda Operandi's Founder Talks Strategy, Taylor Tomasi Hill, and Average Transaction Price Per Customer (Hint: It's Over $1000)

Moda Operandi, the online trunk show that allows shoppers to buy straight from the runway, burst onto the e-tail scene last February with plenty of buzz. It was a totally new concept in online retail--place orders for designer looks immediately after they're shown--and an answer to the flash sale sites that were on the wane. Of course, it didn't hurt that the site was founded by socialite and Voguette Lauren Santo Domingo and ex-Gilt Group exec Aslaug Magnusdottir--two women with all the fashion connections and experience you could hope for in launching a new fashion venture. And when the company closed their second round of funding with $10 million from venture capital firm New Enterprise Associates, it was clear they were getting something right. In the last few weeks Moda Operandi has poached names from the top of the masthead of major fashion glossies (Marie Claire's Taylor Tomasi Hill is the site's new artistic director and Nina Garcia is a new addition to the advisory board) and established retailers (Roopal Patel of Neiman's and Bergdorf's). No question about it, Moda Operandi is growing like crazy and we wanted to know why. So we chatted with co-founder Magnusdottir to find out the site is doing, what they're planning to do with all these new hires, and why people want to shell out for designer clothes online.
