Part 9/13:
Celebrity-inspired outfits are another frontier for dupes. Isabelle, a fashion blogger, demonstrated how she aimed to recreate Emily in Paris’ signature style on a budget. She sourced a similar blazer, shoes, and accessories that matched the look at a fraction of the original cost. Her entire duped outfit came to around $77,000 in value, contrasted with the original’s $400 price tag.
Similarly, she bought a "Balmain-inspired" dress for about $20, which mimicked the style of the high-end designer, and a "Sui-inspired" poofy dress for roughly $30. While some items, like the "Rumor-inspired" dress, didn’t meet her quality expectations, she appreciated the opportunity to experiment with fashion at a lower price point.
