Sheike inspired by Stella McCartney

Sheike is an Australian high street chain which does affordable & on trend fashion aimed at 15-35 year olds.

Currently in their windows, is the following black dress....





Now look closely at dress # 1 from the Stella McCartney AW 2011 collection







and dress # 4 from the Stella McCartney SS 2012 collection.....





The Sheike dress seems to be a combination of the two.....take the left body side of the spotted winter dress and the right body side of the summer dress, VOILA - you get the Sheike dress.




Sheike is calling this dress the Revenge dress. Its $140 and made in a black ponte (68% poly, 25% rayon, 7% spandex).

Notice that Sheike hasnt extended the sheer panel all the way down to the hem - a commercial decision no doubt, after all high street is a bit less risque than high end!





It's high street after all - I should be used to this "inspired by" concept by now......sigh.....
