I don't know what to say (someone sent me the link). I kinda understand the Fredrick's people. You want the look, no matter what the cost (as long as the cost isn't out of your pocket). Fredrick's has been around since the 50's and they designed some amazing stuff in the 50's & 60's (love/lust the old adverts)...so what happened? It's expensive to create designs. Oh and the other costs. Ask yourself how they bring this version to you? $25 is cheap. Who made this garment that, even after overhead, will still net a profit? I hear you already, "everybody does it". That is so soothing. There's also the half life. You know it's cheaply made so you know it will fall apart, but hey it was only $25 you just tossed in the bin. Btw, if you don't have a model's body that F of H isn't going to do you any favors. I don't work for Bordelle, I don't have a lot of money and I would never spend $600 on a slip (EVER!). Instead I shop sales and since I'm not Lady Gaga, who must be seen in the latest underwear, I can wait or buy something else (on sale) that will do the trick. In fact Bordelle is on sale at at least 3 places right now. You say "I WANT THAT PIECE NOW!". Grow-up, you can't have it, you can't afford it. Move on with your life, stop buying garbage, there will be something else you in just a minute. Wow! I don’t know what to say (someone sent me the link). I kinda understand the Fredrick’s people.

Almost nothing in the world of lingerie is new, unique, or innovative. Someone, somewhere has done something almost identical to that before. For my part, as someone who's familiar with Bordelle and Frederick's, I'm glad there's an option for every budget.

Ok, Bordelle is a better brand or more expensive. If you have that kinda money, yeah go for it buy the Bordelle one. But for those who want a cheaper look, i think it's a great option. Ok maybe it is not the greatest thing to copy from a brand, but they already did it so what's the point to argue. I think they both look sexy enough :) I don’t get the negativity.

As you probably know, it is practically impossible to patent a design in the fashion industry. An unfortunate consequence of this, is that the dishonesty of plagiarism is rife. I'm curious to know, whether you were basing your earlier opinion of this matter, on your brand loyalty to Fredrick's, or the reality of the matter... Bordelle would have designed this dress a good 8 months before it hit the shops, well over 2 years ago. You can check out their SS09 collection, which you may also recognise other pieces from on this link... http://evilmonito.com/2009/01/13/bordelle-springsummer-2009/ Nell, Daria, Christina, Jenifer, Lexa and India-

The difference in the quality between the two is undoubtedly obvious, but the bargain consumer knows that. To each his own. :) <a href="http://www.love-of-lingerie.com/ladies-sleepwear.html" rel="nofollow">ladies sleepwear</a> Of course there’s a difference in the quality, but lots of women can’t afford the more expensive version, or are uncomfortable spending that kind of cash on some skimpy pieces of fabric.

What the heck is Bordelle? Sorry to burst your bubble but Frederick's is much more recognized than your company. I know I know jealousy sucks doesn't it?
