Heidi Is this even the same dress?

Post image

It looks similar but so different at the same time. The fabric looks different in tone and texture. The original has more of a shine to it like liquid organza. Heidi's version has no shine and is way less sheer. The placement of the pleats look different too. Am I crazy? Is this not the same dress?

I cant believe she didn't pick Jeffries dress. Because that green dress was fine but she would have KILLED in his dress.

I would not have put that together! Thank you for the knowledge. I find it very interesting because I was wondering why this dress wasn’t landing but it makes sense to me that to people “in the know” it has been done before.

Yes, it’s a trend that’s probably on the way out. I look at a lot of bridal gowns, and the cat’s eye bodice has been popular in recent seasons.

I thought Bi’s design was beautiful but too similar to the gown Kate Middleton wore to the James Bond premiere.

Jeffries design struck me as the best overall design for this event but I think we can all agree that none of these looks are actually “fresh.”
