Kate Moss Topshop Short Dress with Neck Detail vs. Forever 21 Claire Taffeta Dress
Seriously, can one even tell these two dresses apart? If I didn’t put this together I surely won’t even have noticed the slight differences. Reader Priscilla, spotted this Forever 21 copy yesterday and was stunned, so she wanted to share this with you guys. I am a bit pissed because I do own the Kate Moss Topshop version but hey that’s life when something’s hot/popular it gets copied! If you didn’t want to splurge £60.00 for Kate Moss Topshop version but loved this dress, now you can own an exact (well almost) copy from Forever 21 for $24.90, what a STEAL! Cop it quick, I have a feelin’ its going to disappear off their webstore very quickly! A copy of a copy, I remember reading that Topshop will sue if anyone copies their Kate Moss Topshop designs…hmm. May be, I’ll get one just for the hell of it haha!
holy shizzzz that’s ridiculous!

Posted By: Wendy | August 30th, 2007 at 12:25 pmI love the forever 21 one, but I don’t think there’s any chance to get it in europe :””(

Posted By: e | August 30th, 2007 at 1:37 pmthe irony is incredible. topshop was sued by chloe for knocking off their designs, so topshop shouldn’t be suing anyone. and all of kate’s “designs” were knockoffs of vintage and designer pieces. a knockoff of a knockoff of a knockoff ha!

Posted By: nisnis | August 30th, 2007 at 1:59 pmfashion is so incestuous. topshop shouldn’t be suing anyone either! OF COURSE IM GOING TO BUY THE CHEAPER ONE! there was no integrity, creativity,originality in the topshop one to start with.
Posted By: stcolapop | August 30th, 2007 at 3:57 pmOh whatever, topshop ain’t gonna sue nobody when they copy stuff themselves. That would be dumb. The price they sell it at is ridiculous anyway for the cheap material they use, anyone would get the cheaper one. forever21 rules.
Posted By: Geneva | August 30th, 2007 at 4:53 pmRetrogurl, you shouldn’t be pissed about buying the original–it is way cooler because it has the bondage strap neck all the way around, while the Forever 21 version only has it in the front and is plain and high-necked in the back. I was totally going to buy it online until I noticed that. Also, the fabric of the F21 version looks like it would wrinkle way more than the TopShop version.
Posted By: wildeyedundine | August 31st, 2007 at 12:35 amI have to say the F21 version looks like it would be more flattering on the body, the cut of the dress just looks better… but it shouldn’t stop you from enjoying your TS version in any event…
Posted By: DAB | August 31st, 2007 at 5:03 ami actually bought the forever21 version today. i love it!
Posted By: nikki | September 1st, 2007 at 7:14 ami also picked up the forever 21 version today —- i saw it while perusing the new soho location and couldn’t resist bringing it home. the fit is great, i can’t wait to wear it out this weekend, regardless of who topshop might be suing! : )
