Dear oh dear, oh dear Nasty Gal. You really do love ripping off designer pieces, don’t you? Well at least you can rest a bit easier as it wasn’t just you this time; shoe brand Jeffrey Campbell has gotten in on the act too. Famed a few years ago for their chunky ankle boots that seemed to be on every blogger and fashionista’s feet, the brand faded from public consciousness for a while and obviously this is how they’ve decided to come back into the forefront of the fashion industry.
For all my negativity, I secretly believe that their rip-off of the Christian Dior spring/summer 2015 collection of shoes is actually a bit of an improvement on the original design. I love Dior, but this collection really done nothing for me and nothing encapsulated the ‘meh-ness’ of this collection more than those absolutely fugly shoes. Now I still wouldn’t buy the Jeffrey Campbell/Nasty Gal versions, but at least the heel doesn’t look so ridiculous.
So on the left we have the original Dior shoe and on the right is the Jeffrey Campbell/Nasty Gal iteration. Let me know what you think of this latest version of designer vs high street.
LOL! love this post! Like they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery! but I do appreciate the High Street version of the heels!
Thank you!! That is very true and I love the fact that the high street imitation is better than the designer original here!
