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?
