Futuristic

Christopher Kane has gained quite a bit of momentum lately with many of his designs being worn on the red carpet by red carpet pros such as Diane Kruger and Emma Watson. His collaboration with Topshop has definitely raised his profile as well. The layered geometric sheer dress below is just beautiful. I love the sculptural sillhouette, the subtle sheerness and the contrasting black velvet piping. A modern take on the classic shift dress.

ASOS PETITE Organza Shift Dress

If you want the same look without breaking the bank, ASOS has a really good and budget-friendly option. They changed the color to be a light pink instead of eggshell and the black piping is slightly different as well, but all in all it will still give you a very similar look for a much lower price.

Back to Balmain, huh? It’s almost unbelievable to see how much Balmain gets copied these days when just 2 years ago almost no one knew this brand and now they’re selling $10k dresses like crazy. That’s how the fashion world spins sometimes.

Lipsy Futuristic Metallic Mini Dress

Balmain fans in the UK/Europe, you are lucky because Lipsy have a nearly identical knockoff of the silver Balmain strapless dress. It does not even come close to the delicate quality of an authentic Balmain dress, but it also doesn’t cost you like $7.000 but only £90 instead! The cut and look are a 100% match, so if you covet the Balmain dress, this is your chance to grab a budget-friendly alternative.
