Fashion police and watchdog on Instagram Diet Sabya called out contestant Nikki Tamboli for wearing a similar dress seen on Kendall Jenner.

Ken Ferns design Nikki's outfit.

Nikki's magenta version of Kendall's original black LBD is designed by Ken Ferns who took to his social media handle to share how Nikki was over the moon when she saw her dress and kept on saying, "I LOVE IT, YOU HAVE MADE ME SO HAPPY & FURTHER CONFIDENT, BIGG BIGG THANK YOU " (sic).

The designer went on to share, "It's always known that an outfit can literally bring you happiness, she just kept proving that. And just so you know, I did not even have a centimetre of alteration, and it fit her like a glove, I also customised her shoes to match the outfit, perks of being able to craft out anything."

Kendall wore the dress at Vanity fair oscar after party!

Kendall had worn the original dress by Italian prêt-à-porter fashion brand Redemption at the 2018 Vanity Fair Oscar after-party. The model paired the dress with its low-cut neckline and big, ruffled sleeves with dangling emerald earrings. She completed her look with a sleek, straight bob, subtle make-up and black stilettos.

Nikki apes Kendall

Nikki copied Kendall's and styled her hair like Kendall and also wore golden studs in her ears for accessories. While Kendall's dress had a plunging neckline, Nikki's version had a faux neckline. Another difference was that Kendall's version had sheer panelling on the side and was much shorter, while Nikki's was solid all around and a little longer.

Who is Diet Sabya? A fashion designer or an Instagram page?

Diet Sabya is an Instagram account who calls out Bollywood and television celebrities when they promote blatant copies of unique original designs. The account does not even spare the designers who make these priceless dresses for high profile Bollywood celebs. Even designers like Sabyasachi Mukherjee were connected with this Instagram account, although Mukherjee blatantly refused to any connections with the account.
