Emma Cook For Topshop Necklace Dress: Love It or Hate It?

October 24, 2008

Some of Hollywood's best have been spotted wearing Givenchy's Goth-inspired dress, so it comes as no surprise to see a cheaper rendition from one our favorite retailers. This Emma Cook for Topshop Necklace Dress ($230) is similar to Givenchy's version, but looks more homemade than Goth. The soft baubles add a whimsical touch to the sewn-on chains and I fancy the rivets. You tell me, love it or leave it?

I prefer a dress with more shape to it. :(

OMG this is just awful, as Michael Kors would say, "Garish"...

It's pretty bad...

The look only limits you to one accessory & if you were to add more you would look like a gypsy. Plus it looks like an outfit your grandmother would put together.

i'm not really feeling this look to be honest. i think that it was too much in the couture version when madonna, jennifer lopez and who ever else it was that wore it did...that it'll be too over the top when it's worn out on the town or at a club but 'regular' folks

Yeah, he did Cadi con Carne! I knew that this reminded me of something.... I think this is better; it looks less like a craft project.

Didn't Lanvin do this with a T-shirt recently?

I like the idea of layering necklaces and I certainly do it myself, but this is way overkill.

it is ok if it is cheaper.

This look could easily be made for much less money..and I don't even like it very much. It looks like a watered-down version of the Givenchy.

i love it, with the GLARING exception of those black...pompoms? yarn balls?

I think I'd like it separately so I can use the layered necklace in other items and simplify wearing the dress by wearing heels and pearls

I kind of like it!

I'm not sure if it would look tacky or cute. I'd have to see it on some one.

Id like to see what it would look like on a person, but from what I can tell, it looks like something I would buy. Very cute. Though it might be hard to wash.....

I love lots of layered necklaces, so this would just save me the trouble of picking them out!
