In Shift
During the course of ongoing film festival, Kiran was photographed in a frayed hem dress by Shift. A classic wristwatch and pair of sneakers are all that it took to round out the look. Easy, casual and right up her alley; Ms. Rao did good. That dress, we like!
Speaking of the dress though, it sure gave us a pause. The striking resemblance to Marques Almeida didn’t go unnoticed.

Wow copycat! Plagiarism at its worst..funny how people easily get away with it…
Seriously. Plus to copy a sack. Lol.
The treads hanging from the dress are ridiculous.
resemblance? its a rip off!!! call a spade a spade please.. who/what is shift by the way?
think they have ‘shift’ed their priorities from designing to plagiarising…
This dress looks like a sack.
why this dress? lol
what are you ? 14 years old!
It is appalling that they did not even bother to change the colour of the dress !!
Outright plagiarism.
Very well spotted! Today, a lot of young designers like Nimish of Shift blatantly copy lesser known brands believing that nobody will notice. Its a shame that this dress has been copied down to the last faryed thread…
So of all the ideas in the world, they plagiarized this? Inexplicable!
Shifted! As simple as that! ;)
The brand should change its name to Shifty. And seriously, this is not a good look.
Copied to the last thread – nicely put!
Kiran Rao looks pathetic in this ( sorry to use this word), the hospital gown I wore at childbirth looked better than this. The lengths she can go to be quirky !!!!
+1
They could have plagiarized something better than a tatty hospital gown.
So many designers.. So many clothes and Shift copied this sack of a dress.. Atleast tweak jna but.. Change of color or perhaps cut down the bad things about the dress you are copying, like avoid the hanging threads..lol
