Miss Selfridge, a UK fashion brand, is creating a line of dresses based on Gossip Girl style. The line will feature eight dresses inspired by the costume design of Gossip Girl stylist Eric Daman. Each of the Gossip Girls’ unique style will be portrayed. According to Vogue UK, the line will include a leopard print boho maxi dress to represent Vanessa Abrams, a ruffle front shift dress with floral skirt for Blair Waldorf, a black bandage dress representing Serena van der Woodsen and a nude and black lace tutu-style skirt for Jenny Humphrey. The Gossip Girl dresses go on sale in April and will start at $62 Canadian. This line sounds similar to the Anna Sui Gossip Girl clothing line from Target that has been extremely popular.
