First Lady, Michelle Obama Is Not Above “Knocking Off”

For Halloween, First Lady Michelle Obama decided to make the ultimate fashion faux pas, (*sarcasm intended*) and rock a knockoff Diane Von Furstenberg, as her Halloween costume. As you know, a knock-off is basically cheaper look-alike clothing from a brand name designer. Diane Von Furstenberg’s dress retails for $498 smack-a-rues, while Michelle’s dress from ASOS retails for $60. Great bargain. Michelle paired the knee length dress with knee high boots and a long coat. This isn’t the first time Michelle has worn a knockoff though. She recently wore a designer knockoff from H&M. Sweet!  Source

    What’s funny about “knock off” is that after fashion hits the run way…”versions” of that item start popping up months down
    the line it happens everywhere with everything. Take Loubs for example. They dont have exclusive rights to red bottoms, so now many shoes have red bottoms. Are ppl wearing fake loubs? Nah…but YSLs have red bottoms too and they are DEFINITELY up there with CL. Nothing about Fashion is truly original anymore…DVF created the wrap dress, and how many other designers have wrap dresses now (thank GOD FOR THEM). Fashion mags will do what you did in this post and say “LUXE OR LESS”..its Recessionista Friendly! Anyway….where was I going with this? She looks great

    I must say that this works better for the First Lady much better than it does for the model in the photo above. She rocked it!

    The best part about knockoffs is that they’re often manufactured by the same manufacturer that produces the original.
