Seeing Double
February 17th, 2012 at 1:22 am . by Payal and PriyankaA Fashion Week means, there’s bound to be one of those ‘Seeing Double‘ posts… Leaves us gobsmacked every time. Here’s the first one from this week and hopefully, the only one.
Taking in the shows on day one of WLIFW’s A/W 2012 edition in a white jersey Sass & Bide was Nandini Bhalla. In a bizarre twist of events, Preeti Chandra‘s collection showcased that very same day included a gown that bore an uncanny similarity to the Sass & Bide number. Wonder what the Cosmopolitan Editor made of thaat?!!
Curioser and curioser.

Well done for spotting! if fashion designing means this I think I can be a designer too since I am a pretty good seamstress haha..
Another copycat designer/tailor. I’m talking to you Preeti Chandra! In this day and age, i don’t know how Indian ‘deejainerz’ think they’re gonna get away with this! Ridiculous!
whoa caught red handed! btw what’s with the reference to cosmo editor?
Nandini is the editor of Cosmo.
Nandini Bhalla is the cosmo editor and the dress she’s wearing was copied on the runway while she was sitting on the sidelines.
lol!!!
Love it when fate is so awesome.
And there is the start of copied designs…er..I mean lake fashion week.
Ouch! Why and how do they think they can get away with it! Preeti Chandra — plagiarism caught red handed!
Hi Preeti Chandra! You just got owned! :)
oh dear :D
karma!! haha!
Preeti Chandra designs are firstly rubbish and clearly ‘inspired’ Few seasons ago, there were very obvious Lanvin and Balmain rips.
I am pretty sure Nandini was wearing a ‘Preeti Chandra’, to the show or atleast she thought so. Otherwise it is way toooooo much of a coincidence!
Karma, Ms Chandra. Karma. Its always a bitch. You copy, you get caught – in one of the worst ways possible. xD
That white mini dress is awesome! I want it!
LOL.. I wish I was there to see Preeti Chandra’s face when this happened.
but what a shame right??
shame shame…this is a clear case of plagiarism ..
Both remind me of the chanel dress or top from 2011 that had a similar gold link patterned on white with a similar fall. that was probably the orginal source, these guys added some jazz and zardozi,
what a shameless and talent-less designer.. didn’t even change it a bit.. and how fun that she has been caught..
All it would take is a little tweaking in the embellishment to not make it seem copied…Was that too hard for her to do!?
ridiculous!
Such so called designers should be banned from showing at fashion weeks..truly obnoxious!
This is terrible. Are there no repercussions to plagiarizing this blatantly? And to think that these thieves make millions by owning someone else’s hard work. What is the prestige of Lakme Fashion Week if this kind of behavior is encouraged? Saddens me to see this in this day and age
this is a crime. but got to hand it to her guts or stupidity.
this is not lakme fashion week, its wills lifestyle india fashion week
Ppl should like officially avoid buying clothes from such tailors.
