Designed by Sherri Hill, and styled by Marquis Bias for her appearance at the recently concluded New York Fashion Week 2019, Catriona’s velvet cape-dress, that she wore with a short black skirt looked very similar to the Firdaus Coat from Sabyasachi’s 2016 collection.

Catriona Gray , Miss Universe 2018 apparently wore a copy of a Sabyasachi design by American designer Sherri Hill to New York Fashion Week 2019 and was trolled on Instagram for it.

Designed by Sherri Hill, and styled by Marquis Bias for her appearance at the recently concluded New York Fashion Week 2019, Catriona’s velvet cape-dress, that she wore with a short black skirt looked very similar to the Firdaus Coat from Sabyasachi’s 2016 collection, that took us back to the colonial times with inspiration from countries like Kenya and Burma. The motifs of birds, coconut trees and flowers in this collection was a striking feature and it was termed Modern Heirloom.
