A dress design done by Brian Reyes, then Gucci and Carl

Talk about designer inspired. Fashionista pointed out that a dress designed by Brian Reyes and worn by Mischa Barton last year has popped up on the recent Gucci Cruise 2008 collection. Now it’s popped up again, this time designed by Australian designer Carl Kapp for his winter 2007 collection in stores now.

Sure it’s a gorgeous dress in it’s first carnation (and looked hot on Mischa), the Gucci carnation is floating and pretty… but the Carl design? It’s very pleated and not sitting right on the mannequin.

What do you think?

If you love the front panel detail in at the base of the plunging neckline, you can buy the Carl Blue Tucked Dress for AUD$690 (approx US$586) from FrockShop.
