TopShop Hearts Phoebe – Fashionista Fashion Indu
 

TopShop says that the muse for their new Scandinavian collection is Love Story‘s Ali MacGraw.
We love movie-inspired fashion,http://www.jamonproductions.com/liqp...e.php?pos=-772, but we think the clothes were more likely triggered by a designer than a film character – less Ali MacGraw,http://thegopauls.com/displayimage.php?pos=-603, and more Phoebe Philo.
These boots and these Mary Janes would definitely look cute on a ’70s Ali MacGraw… but they also looked great on the Spring ’06 Chloe runway.
The irony is,http://www.upcomingwriters.com/pg/bl...aga-wishes-fas, TopShop’s already had to pull one piece – that famous yellow jumper – because it was a direct Chloe knockoff.
And though the Scandinavian Collection is definitely wantable – though we wonder why it’s named after Sweden and Denmark,http://leonardo.hollywood.com/galler...e.php?pos=-927, when Ali MacGraw was from upstate New York – the bigger issue is trying to get the pieces into your hands before Chloe’s legal team does.
