Hi Sid -
I know you asked for modern dress and were reminded that this is a
historical list. However I do try to collect images of modern dress
that is clearly inspired by or a literal knock off of garments from
the past.
My most recent "find" was Miley Cyrus' gown by Zuhair Murhad from the
Oscars. IT is a clear "Homage" to the Dior 1949 Junon dress at the
Metropolitan museum in New York - google either to get the images.
You might like the other designs by Murhad as well.
I hope this makes it relevant to the list -- do the rest of you see
in modern clothing?
