Seeing Double!

January 17th, 2009 at 12:48 am . by Payal

At the ‘Re’ Spring 2009 preview, spotted on Nina, a very obvious knock-off of the mesh Dolce and Gabbana dress.

Don’t know though who Nina was wearing, but we do prefer the one without the embellishment. If you know who she was wearing, HOLLER!

    Hey P&P

    That’s Nina Manuel, not Candice Pinto.

    The black pantyhose looks bad!

  4. monika says:

    Agree. THe embellishments look tacky! Who would want to ruin that pretty dress.

  5. saya says:

    Nina needs a oil-free scrub. pronto!

    …Nina in a knockoff- sad :(
    I too prefer the ORIGINAL

    I don’t know who the designer is…but I have a strong feeling it is nalanda bhandari.

    okay a word of advise to designers, do you see that half circle lines right under boobs which makes that part looks like a bra, PLEASE DONT DESIGN IT THAT WAY, first of all the half circles are too small and makes any women’s upper body appear small and flat, second it ruins the dress and give it a Mulan Rouge type of a hype, it makes it trashy and look more like a night gown rather than a classy dress, I mean look at the Nena and how her upper body some how looks shrinked due to those half circle lines under the girls

    either way, it’s a pretty awful dress… the D&G original could have passed off as innerwear if it weren’t for the sunray pattern. and nina herself goes down in my regard for wearing such a blatant knock-off… she should know better. (like preity in dior/surily)

    I dont like the indian version! To jazzy..simple is better not that i like the dolce one but keep it simple!

  11. suchi says:

    totally agree with “me”.

    nina finally doesnt get away with this outfir like she normally does!

  12. NJ says:

    Fugly dress! For the first time, Nina is not able to carry something off.

  13. FARAH says:

    i just dont understand what is the need to copy?? Do designers really think that people are dumb enough not to know these days

    I think the dress Nina is wearing is GAURI & NAINIKA. The stripes reminds me of Aishwarya’s dress @ Drona Premiere.

  15. Andrea says:

    designers dat copy somebody else’s dresses should b put behind bars. don’t dey realize its a MAJOR CRIME????

  16. Bili says:

    This dress is disastrous including the original. D&G should name it the “mess overlay dress”. The original looks somewhat better than the copy with its cheap lining presentation.
