Jessica Simpson has recently been caught for designing a similar-to-exact copy of a pair of Sergio Rossi's Zip back sandals.
Considered a rip-off by some, Jessica Simpson's shoe called Deluth has created controversy among Sergio Rossi shoe lovers.
Although Sergio Rossi's sandals are going for $350, Jessica Simpson's shoe is selling for a surprising $79. Check out the picture to decide whether these shoes are deliberate replicas of Sergio's.
Implications - Even if they are deliberate knock-off versions of Sergio Rossi's sandal design, can you really blame her? The interwoven straps are to die for and I'd gladly purchase these lovely shoes from either of the two.
