I’ve come to know Alice + Olivia as an upper class knockoff brand. Each season the designer duo gets inspired by ultra high-end labels such as Balmain, Lanvin & Nina Ricci for example. Then mass retailers get inspired by Alice + Olivia designs and knock them off as well. The circle of (fashion) life I guess. This dress however appears to be an original design. It’s a super flirty frock with a bit of a nautical edge to it. Love the dress, hate the price!

Seriously, can LuLu*s get any better? God, I just adore their dupe of the Alice + Olivia dress. It’s almost identical! And the $55 price tag is absolutely fantastic (use our coupon code above for an even nice price)! I’ve seen this dress sell out once already, so if you like it, make sure to buy it soon. It’s available in either black/rose (pictured) or taupe/white.

The steal version is so cute and it looks exactly the same as the designer! I want this dress so bad.. too bad I can’t justify even spending $47 bucks on the dress, even after the 15%. (Yes, I’m a super frugalista.)
OMG!…I mean LuLu is DEAD ON!….KUH – UTE!!!!!!!!!
OMG, Libby! I feel the same! I was like $55?!?!? lol- but the LuLu’s version is on point! Ugh! I may have to splurge a little!
