Some of my favorite denim garments ever made come from Stella McCartney’s Spring/Summer 2011 collection. I am lucky enough to own two garments from this collection, one of which is the skirt I am wearing here.

Now this wonderful piece has been recreated many times, I first saw one last year by Topshop, and this year we have a very similar one by Alexa Chung for AG Denim collection. To be honest I am a little disappointed each time this happens, a wonderful garment being reproduced over and over again by so many labels most people won’t know who started it. I think of how refreshing it would be to have different basic, classic garments, every season instead of more almost identical versions of the same thing. Of course there is nothing we can do, this is a business on top of all the creative aspects, but on the positive side it could be worse. At least in this case it is a beautiful classic piece being re-made instead of an ugly one.
