Setting a new trend? Experimenting with a new look? Nobody knows what was on Kim Kardashian’s mind when she wore the busy, checkered Givenchy dress on February 27 in L.A and the dress would soon have been forgotten about had it not been the fact that a few weeks later, the exact same dress was spotted on Lily Aldridge, Victoria’s Secret Angel in New York City.
And when I say exactly the same, I mean it. Lily Aldridge, 27, paired her $1,563 dress with black, open-toed booties and a black leather jacket, replicating Kim Kardashian. The only visible difference was that the first time mommy-to-be had applied a nude shade and kept her hair back in a ponytail while Aldridge wore the dress with red lip color and a fedora. But honestly, one fedora does not blur the line between inspiration and imitation. Was Aldridge trying to make some sort of a statement by copying Kardashian head-to toe? Any guesses…
