Great Minds Think Alike … About Green Dresses

October 4, 2011 by WendyB

I jumped when I saw this picture of actress Zooey Deschanel in a lime-green dress with a high neck and gold buttons at the waist.

Photo via Wired.com. Click for source.

It looks a lot like my vintage Jacques Tiffeau dress, doesn’t it?

Click for original post.

I’d love to know more about Zooey’s dress. If anyone has any information, let me know in the comments.

Separately, don’t forget to send me photos of your houndstooth outfits. Deadline is Thursday night!

    It DOES look a lot like yours! Although, I like yours better!

    Both of you look adorable!

    They do look very similar! I agree with Kristin, though, I like yours better. The vibrancy of the green is awesome.

    I can see the similarities but the neckline of yours is more flattering and the color is more vibrant. Do you think it’s the same designer possibly?

      Actually, I’ve loaned my vintage dress to a designer for inspiration. Could be his version!

    It does! I would switch Zooey’s gold buttons for something different. Your gold buttons are prettier!

    Oh my gosh it’s almost just like your dress!! It looks like it could be Marc by Marc Jacobs?

      That sounds like a good guess…I’m going to do some searching!

    That is incredibly similar… except that you look WAY better. I guess you need to be on TV.

    Your dress is way cuter!

      Mine is definitely made of a better, more luxurious fabric!

    you wore it better … the black tights made it pop

      One of my favorite dresses even though the fit is much looser than what I normally go for. I just love the color and fabric so much.

    You both look fab but I like you waaay better!

    Just unpacked all my houndstooth and glenplaid woolies a few days ago- expect a big toothy pic of me soon.

      EXCELLENT! Standing by for your photo!

    Your dress is actually much nicer… It has better drape and the workmanship is cleaner.
