Anyone with their finger on the fashion pulse would have instantly recognized a dress from Gavin Rajah’s latest ‘Resort 2015’ range, being worn by Hollywood superstar, Reese Witherspoon. But perhaps everything isn’t as it seems..
So here’s a pic of Reese Witherspoon wearing a gorgeous dress.
How stunning is that dress?
It’s obviously from Gavin Rajah’s new Resort 2015 collection. You would have seen it if you caught Rajah’s fashion show at Jo’burg’s 2015 Fashion Week, which took place this last week.
Here’s a shot of a model wearing his latest creation at Jo’burg Fashion Week – as per the Bella Naija blog.
And here’s Gavin Rajah raving about his new collection, as well as a pic from Self Portrait’s feed.
The only thing is this same dress was launched many months ago under a brand called Self Portrait and by a designer called Han Chong.
Here is the dress on Net A Porter.
And here is the full Reese Weatherspoon Instagram post – from four months ago.
So just in case you thought Reese was wearing Gavin Rajah, it seems she was actually wearing Self Portrait.
It’s just that Rajah’s latest collection is coincidentally similar.
Not that it’s the first time. You would have caught this article from last year.
Hope that clears up any confusion.
