JESSICA SIMPSON Evangel sandals have been accused of copying Christian Louboutin Staratata high-heeled sandal design.

Ooh La La Blog, In 2009, eagle-eyed fashionistas noticed eerie similarities between one of Simpson’s shoe designs and one by high-priced shoemaker Sergio Rossi, and was the first to point out that the Evangel heels and Louboutin's Staratata style appear to be strikingly similar, with both boasting pink suede straps with yellow leather piping, purple suede rectangular buckles, a purple suede platform and heel, and a black suede insole. (On the bright side, only one of them has that tell-tale red sole.) Simpson was spotted wearing the pair of high-heeled pink strappy sandals in an ad for her self-named clothing and accessories line.

Bloggers immediately noticed how similar they looked to Louboutin’s Staratata sandals, which sold out in 2010. Louboutin’s Staratatas sandal sold for £636 ($995) and came with the designer’s signature red sole ,though new colour combinations have been released. By contrast, Simpson's version Evangel sandal sells for £62 ($98) and had a tan sole. Even worn by the Fashion Star mentor in a footwear ad for her line. Elle, which ran the ad in its April issue fronted by the star, is now under fire for turning a blind eye to the design similarities.

Simpson is unlikely to face any legal consequences for her lookalike design. As certain, clothing and accessories are not yet eligible for copyright protection. (05/04/2012)
