On Extra on Jan. 14, Lily Collins modeled a floral Rachel Zoe dress -- that looks a lot like a Valentino we know! Compare the styles.

Seeing double!

Proving that perhaps imitation is the sincerest form of flattery after all, Rachel Zoe created a seemingly Valentino-inspired look for less—and Lily Collins modeled the adorable result last night.

The Love, Rosie actress, 25, visited Extra on Wednesday, Jan. 14, and she chose the stylist-turned-designer’s sweet, white-collared floral frock for the occasion. Only, this wasn’t the first time we’ve seen the look!

In fact, Valentino debuted a very similar dress in its Fall 2013 Ready-to-Wear collection. Look closely: The Italian fashion house and Zoe, 43, both created floral LBDs. Both dresses boast white collars, buttoned cuffs, and scalloped hems. However, while the Valentino number has red and blue flowers, Zoe’s creation contains embroidered peach posies.

And here’s the floral Valentino dress, modeled during the fall 2013 fashion show, that bears a striking resemblance to Zoe’s upcoming design.

This isn’t the first time Zoe has been called out for borrowing inspiration from an existing frock. Back in 2011, Zoe unveiled a white minidress with a black beaded design in her premiere collection—a dress that looked nearly identical to a vintage one she chose for a Teen Vogue style story in 2007.

Nevertheless, in the most recent case, the Valentino is quite the adorable piece, so we can’t blame Zoe is she did happen to turn to the famed fashion house for inspiration. (Plus, how cute does Zoe’s dress look paired with Collins’ mod hairstyle?) The Rachel Zoe design, part of her Pre-Fall 2015 collection, will soon be available to shop online.
