The Knock-Off Game Does that pattern look like a RL garment?
lakaribane Beginner HAITI Member since 7/23/07 Posts: 1746	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 7/24/12 10:12 AM Ok, I'm starting this thread because I keep stumbling over dresses that look like my patterns (or vice versa). I hope everyone will join in. The Game is to identify garments on celebrities, in movies or on TV that you can easily knock-off with an existing pattern. We do that already but maybe a dedicated thread might inspire more people? So, I don't have cable but I follow the posts on Project Runway @ TLo. And look at this: This dress by Andrea Katz on the Project Runway Season 10 has a bodice that looks a lot IMO like V1102: Let the game begin! -- Edited on 7/24/12 10:15 AM -- ------ Fashion Maté, where I blog about what I (eventually) sew : http://fashionmate.blogspot.com Addicted to Pinterest?

Last summer I saw all these tops on USA (the cable network) series that I recognized. At least two shows had blouses that looked like Colettes, and one actress was DEFINITELY wearing the top that was the big sewalong last summer (I can't find it right now; hopefully someone will remember the one I mean!). I pointed it out to DH at the time and said, "Everyone on PR is making that top!!" -- Edited on 7/24/12 5:33 PM -- ------ ~Gem in the prairie

LOL! In my defense, I've only watched one or two episodes of a random season during trips to the US so her name is a complete blank to me. Ok, the gauntlet is thrown now so I have to come up with a new one. ------ Fashion Maté, where I blog about what I (eventually) sew : http://fashionmate.blogspot.com Addicted to Pinterest?

You know as soon as I saw your pic though.. I thought of an old Vogue pattern from the 70s.. Sometimes its an exact pattern almost repeated.. sometimes it only a part of a certain pattern.. and sometimes just the general idea. For instance in your pic.. you can imagine that dress in another print..with or without the bow.. or add a belt.. or maybe large skirt pockets.. and so on. So it should be easy for us to dupe most anything nowadays.. This should be fun..
