Oh no you didn't!
Thursday, April 10, 2008
Those of you who have been reading this here blog for awhile may recall the exciting events of October 2006, when I discovered a stash of many-seasons-old designs at the Prada outlet in Hong Kong, including a dress in the reissued Holiday & Brown vintage pink and green print from F/W 2003 that I'd pined after for years. {That is me in my dress above, some time back. You can't see my face, but let me assure you it is insanely happy.}
So imagine my dismay/shock/incredibly-huge-jaw-drop when at Filene's yesterday I discovered a brand called Single Dress had produced some (SO-not-cute) dresses in a near-identical print!
Let's compare: That's the imposter on the left, and real Prada on the right.
Okay, so the fabric was a flimsy nylon (as opposed to my Prada silk) and the cut was a shapeless shift style with ruffles on the sleeves (as opposed to my Miuccia-approved slim-cut sheath) and the print is not exactly the same, but the similarities are undeniable. And really, does this company know the lengths I went through to get this dress? Is this fair? Hrumpf.

wow, there is similar, and then there is similar. that is similar.
but not in the ways that matter.
your dress is the treasure!
the similarity of the dresses just shoes the diffrence. the single dress sahpe looks really bad (and i love shift dress) and the print so much less, and the colors looks very cheap next to your dress.
it's not fair at all! maybe u shld get all the imposters n burn them in a big ecologically-unfriendly bonfire
As we say in Spanish: any similarity is pure coincidence. The difference is just so obvious...
Your Prada dress is far superior...how could they have managed to copy such a beautiful design and actually make it look cheap and ugly! stupidheads! :-P
Lady, when all those nasty nylon knock-offs are busy not-decomposing is some landfill somewhere, your Prada will still be gorgeous, intact and relevant.
Ride it out, and you will prevail!
Seriously though, this kind of knock-off just makes me squirm.... even though I'm a bit irreverent when it comes to big designers, ideas are ideas, and they're not for stealing. Bah.
Love your blog. I'm delurking.

No worries, nobody will mistake that one for Prada :) I envy your treasured find! It's gorgeous.
You can't fake quality. That knockoff will never look as good as yours, in any dimension.
Can't believe how similar the patterns are...the dress look great on you.
